In Anglo-Saxon times, earls were noblemen who held significant power and land, often serving as the king's chief advisors and military leaders. They governed large regions known as earldoms, overseeing local justice and administration. Earls were essential to the social and political structure of Anglo-Saxon England, often leading armies in battle and managing their own retinues of warriors. Their status was second only to the king, and they played a crucial role in maintaining order and loyalty within their territories.

After the Battle of Hastings in 1066, only a few Anglo-Saxon earls survived. Most notably, Earl Edwin of Mercia and Earl Morcar of Northumbria managed to escape. Others, like Earl Godwin's sons, also survived but fled or went into hiding as William the Conqueror solidified his control over England. The defeat at Hastings marked a significant turning point, leading to the decline of Anglo-Saxon noble power.
