The Domesday Book of 1086 informs ...
in Berkshire, where one version of the ''
Anglo-Saxon Chronicle'' was compiled. According to the abbey’s records, in which he was called ''princeps Australium Saxonum, Eadwinus nomine'', he bequeathed estates to them in his will, although the document itself has not survived. Earlier in the same year he witnessed a charter of King Æðelræd Unræd as ''Eaduuine dux''. His name was also added to a forged charter dated 956 (possibly an error for 976).
