Sigeric I of Essex

Sigeric I of Essex was a King of Essex, and a son of Saelred of Essex, reigning from an unknown date until he abdicated and went on pilgrimage to Rome in 798. Like his predecessors, he recognised Mercian overlordship.[1][2]

The Itinerary of Archbishop Sigeric, a record of the journey of Sigeric, Archbishop of Canterbury, to Rome in 990. It includes a list of 23 churches in Rome that he visited, one of which was dedicated to St Sigeric, possibly the same as the king of Essex[3]
