  The following from Denis R. Reed's GEDCOM file on royalty & nobility: Harold was about 45 years old at his death. William is said to have had his body buried on the sea shore, but there is a tradition that Harold's mistress Edith/Edgyth "with the Swan-neck" sought it out and took it to Waltham Abbey for burial. Harold had lived happily with Edith for many years and she had bore him many children. Their daughter Gytha, named after Harold's mother, sought refuge abroad after the Conquest and eventually to marry Vladimir Monomath, Grand Duke of Kiev. In 1065 Harold married Ealdgyth, the widow of Gruffydd ap Llywelyn, King of Gwynedd and Powys, and daughter of Alfgar, Earl of Mercia. She bore him at least one son, Harold, whose fate is unknown. There is much confusion between Ealdgyth and Edith/Edgyth. With such spelling is there any wonder?
