WIGSTAN (-killed Wistanstowe 849, bur Repton, later transferred to Evesham). William of Malmesbury names "Wistan" as son of "Wimund son of Wihtlaf king of the Mercians" & his wife. Ingulph's Chronicle of the Abbey of Croyland records that "Berfert his son [Beorhtwulf's]" killed "his kinsman the holy Wistan, son of Wimund, the son of king Wichtlaf and of Alfleda the daughter of Ceolwulph". According to William of Malmesbury, he was murdered by Beorhtfrith because he had opposed Beorhtfrith's plan to marry his widowed mother, but this appears to be inaccurate if it is correct, as stated above, that Wigstan's mother died soon after his father. Ingulph's Chronicle of the Abbey of Croyland records that Wigstan was buried at Repton, but that his body was later transferred to Evesham SOURCE: Charles Cawley at http://fmg.ac/
