Wigod (also spelt Wigot) was the eleventh-century Saxon thegn or lord of the English town of Wallingford, and a kinsman of Edward the Confessor. After the Battle of Hastings, during the 1066 Norman invasion of England, William the Conqueror made for London, but was repulsed at the River Thames. Wigod invited William to Wallingford where he then crossed the river, aiding him in his conquest of England. The Domesday Book records him as both a Lord and an Overlord in a number of places in 1066.

  • Wigod (auch Wigot) war der angelsächsische Lord von Wallingford an der Themse, ein Verwandter Eduard des Bekenners. Während der Eroberung Englands und nach der Schlacht von Hastings zog Wilhelm der Eroberer nach London, wurde aber an der Überquerung der Themse gehindert. Wigod lud Wilhelm nach Wallingford ein, wo die Normannen dann den Fluss überqueren konnten. Wigods Tochter Ealdgyth heiratete Robert D’Oyly, einen von Wilhelms Baronen. Nach Wigods Tod wurde Robert Lord von Wallingford, da Wigods Sohn Tokig (oder Toking) in den Kämpfen auf Seiten Wilhelms gefallen war. (de)
