Drahomíra died after 935 in unknown. She was born Unknown in unknown. Drahomíra the Arrogant (died after 935) was a Bohemian princess, wife of Vratislav I.

Drahomíra's homeland was around Brandeburg, a castle near present-day Berlin. She was princess of Havolans.

She married Vratislav I of Bohemia and gave birth to at least three children: Saint Wenceslas, Boleslaus I and Strezislava. She led her husband to cooperation with her vernaculars, which waged war against Saschen. After her husband's untimely death (921), she and her mother-in-law, Saint Ludmila, divided government above Bohemia. Legends present Ludmila as a tame, pious grandmother, but she was likely much more energetic. Finally, Ludmila runned on Tetín castle, where Drahomíra's slayers, Tunna and Gommmon, murdered her.

When her son, Wenceslas, came to power, he sent his mother into exile in Budec. He later called her back. Wenceslas was one of the apples of discord between them. Drahomíra had raised her younger son, Boleslaus, whereas Ludmila did the same for her eldest grandchild, Wenceslas.

Elfrida was born about 945 in Lydford. She died on 17 Nov 1000 in unknown. Elfrida (c.945-1000, also Alfrida, Ælfthryth or Elfthryth) was the second wife and Queen consort of King Edgar of England (reigned 959-975).

She was born at Lydford, the daughter of Earl Ordgar, Alderman of Devon and Wulfrith Redburch. Elfrida was married c. 962-963 to Ethelwold, Alderman of the East Angles.

Ethelwold was later killed after being struck by a spear while hunting with King Edgar. Rumors at the time alleged that Edgar had deliberately slain Ethelwold in order to marry Elfrida.

As Queen Consort
Following her marriage to Edgar in 965, Elfrida bore a son, Ethelred (Ethelred the Unready), in 968. She was crowned queen alongside her husband at Bath Abbey on May 11, 973, making her the second English queen to actually be crowned with the title (the first having been Ethelwulf's second wife Judith). King Edgar died in 975.

Elfrida was alleged to have been a party to the murder of her step-son Edward the Martyr at her residence in Corfe Castle on March 18, 978. This was to place her son Ethelred on the throne as King. Elfrida believed her son's claim to the throne was superior to her step-son's because both Ethelred's parents had been crowned and consecrated. Henry of Huntingdon relates:

"[Edward] was treasonably slain by his own family... it is reported that his stepmother, that is the mother of King Ethelred, stabbed him with a dagger while she was in the act of offering him a cup to drink."
That Elfrida had her henchmen commit the murder for her is a more likely scenario. In 1970 an examination was performed on remains believed to be Edward's, which had been unearthed in 1931 in the ruins of Shaftesbury Abbey. The examination suggested that the young man had been stabbed in the back while riding his horse and had been dragged along the ground by the animal with his foot caught in a stirrup.

Following the murder, in 979 Elfrida founded the Benedictine Abbey of St. Mary and St. Melor (near Amesbury, England). In 986 she became a nun and founded the Benedictine Monastery at Wherwell, Hampshire. She died on November 17, 1000.
