Unreferenced date June 2007 Wulfnoth Godwinson 1040 1094 was a younger brother of Harold II of England , the sixth son of Earl Godwin Godwin . He was given as a hostage to Edward the Confessor in 1051 as assurance of Godwin s good behaviour and support during the confrontation between the earl and the king which led to the exile of Godwin and his other sons. Upon Godwin s return to England at the head of an army a year later, following extensive preparations in Ireland and Flanders, Norman supporters of King Edward, and especially Archbishop Robert of Jumieges, fled England.

According to Eadmer Eadmer s Historia novorum in Anglia , the reason for Harold s excursion to Normandy in 1064 or 1065 was that he wished to free Wulfnoth as well as his nephew Hakon. To this end he took with him a vast amount of wealth, all of which was confiscated by Count of Ponthieu Count Guy I of Ponthieu when Harold and his party were shipwrecked.
