Agreement (1)
 Æthelwine 2-Ely 1.exchanging land: Ealdorman Æthelwine 2 and his brothers laid claim to the 40 hides at Hatfield (Herts.) which King Edgar 11 had granted to Ely 1, saying that their father, Ealdorman Æthelstan 26, had acquired the land in exchange for his inheritance, which was in the region called Devon, but that King Edgar 11 had forcibly deprived him of it. When, therefore, their claim had been set forth in narrative and demonstration, the claimants prevailed and, ignoring the respect due to the Holy Church, seized the land and appropriated it for themselves. The brothers [of Ely], however, seeing that they could in no way be deprived of the land without great loss, in view of the fact that they did not have forest elsewhere from which they could meet their needs, made a request to the aforementioned Æthelwine 2 and, when agreement with him had been reached, bought from him the land at Hatfield. They gave for it two pieces of land which Wulfstan 16 of Dalham gave to Ely 1 when he died, namely 30 hides at Hemingford Abbots, and 6 at Wennington, adding, as well, 5 hides at Yelling which Wulfwine 8 cocus and his wife Ælfswith 13 forfeited for their wrongdoing, on many counts and with the public as witness. These proceedings were transacted in the place which is called Slaughter (Gloucs.), in the presence of Ealdorman Ælfhere 10, Æthelwine 2, and Ælfric Cild 2 ... and in the presence of the whole retinue accompanying them. In order, moreover, that this agreement should be fixed and incontestable, Æthelmær 13 Cild and Ælfwald 42 were guarantors and witnesses of this matter.: Anon.LiberEliensis  II.7 / LÆ 5

 Æthelwine 2-Ely 1.exchanging land: Ealdorman Æthelwine 2 and his brothers laid claim to the 40 hides at Hatfield (Herts.) which King Edgar 11 had granted to Ely 1, saying that their father, Ealdorman Æthelstan 26, had acquired the land in exchange for his inheritance, which was in the region called Devon, but that King Edgar 11 had forcibly deprived him of it. When, therefore, their claim had been set forth in narrative and demonstration, the claimants prevailed and, ignoring the respect due to the Holy Church, seized the land and appropriated it for themselves. The brothers [of Ely], however, seeing that they could in no way be deprived of the land without great loss, in view of the fact that they did not have forest elsewhere from which they could meet their needs, made a request to the aforementioned Æthelwine 2 and, when agreement with him had been reached, bought from him the land at Hatfield. They gave for it two pieces of land which Wulfstan 16 of Dalham gave to Ely 1 when he died, namely 30 hides at Hemingford Abbots, and 6 at Wennington, adding, as well, 5 hides at Yelling which Wulfwine 8 cocus and his wife Ælfswith 13 forfeited for their wrongdoing, on many counts and with the public as witness. These proceedings were transacted in the place which is called Slaughter (Gloucs.), in the presence of Ealdorman Ælfhere 10, Æthelwine 2, and Ælfric Cild 2 ... and in the presence of the whole retinue accompanying them. In order, moreover, that this agreement should be fixed and incontestable, Æthelmær 13 Cild and Ælfwald 42 were guarantors and witnesses of this matter.: Anon.LiberEliensis  II.7 / LÆ 5

 Anonymous 10125.granting land to Æthelflæd 29: While the father of Æthelflæd 29, Æthelwine 2’s wife, was still alive and possessed a certain part of that countryside [Sawtry?] by hereditary right, he gave it to Ealdorman Æthelstan 26 who gave it to Ramsey.
