  SIGEBERHT "Parvus" (-653). Florence of Worcester’s genealogies record that "Sigeberhtus cognomento Parvus…Sæwardi filius" succeeded when his father and uncle were killed[179]. Roger of Wendover records that "Sigebertus cognomento Parwus, Siwardi…filius" succeeded as king "apud orientales Saxones" after "Sexredum et Siwardum fratres", adding that the people immediately expelled "Mellitum Londonensium episcopum"[180]. Henry of Huntingdon records that "Sigebertus cognomina Parvus" succeeded as king of Essex on the death of "Sebertus rex Estsexe" but gives no relationship between the two[181]. William of Malmesbury names "Sigebert surnamed the Little" as son of Sæweard[182]. Sigeberht had one child:
  (a) SIGEHERE [Sigher] (-[683]). William of Malmesbury names "Sigher the son of Sigebert the Little and Sebbi the son of Seward" as successors of Swithelm, specifying that Sigher died before Sæbbi[183]. Bede names "reges Sigheri et Sebbi" as successors of "Suidhelmum" as kings of the East Saxons, subject to Wulfhere King of Mercia, specifying that Sigehere lapsed into paganism at the time of a plague but that King Wulfhere organised his reconversion[184]. Roger of Wendover records that "Sebba filio Sewardi et Sigehero filio Sigeberti parvi" ordained "Erkenwaldum" as bishop of London in 675[185]. Roger of Wendover records the death in 683 of "Sigehero orientalium Saxonum rege" adding that thereafter "Sebba" ruled as sole king[186]. m [OSYTH, daughter of ---.
