Eadwulf Evil-child

De primo Saxonum adventu, an 11th- or 12th-century compilation from earlier sources, notes that after the death of Osulf, Northumbria was divided into two parts: Eadulf Evil-child receiving the lands between the Myreford (arguably the Firth of Forth) and the River Tees and Oslac receiving the lands between the Humber Estuary and the Tees.
