    • Ædgina is believed to have been the wife of Ealdred, son of Uchtred and Earl of Bernicia. Together they five daughters, three of whom are recorded as having borne the same name:
      - Ealdgyth who married Ligulf of Lumley (murdered in 1080)
      - Aelfflaed, believed to have died young.
      - Aelfflaed, believed to have died young.
      - Aelfflaed, second wife of Siward, Earl of Northumbria; and mother of Waltheof, Earl of Northumbria.
      - Ethelthritha, married Orm of Yorkshire, son of Gamel.

      Ædgina's husband Ealdred was murdered in 1038 by Carl, son of Thurbrand the Hold, in revenge for Ealdred killing his father. Ealdred was succeeded in Bernicia by his 1/2 brother, Eadwulf. It is not known where Ædgina and her unmarried daughters went after Ealdred's death.

      Ædgina's parentage is not known, nor her birth date or date of death.
