* 992 – Oswald of Worcester, archbishop of York ( b. c. 925 )

* February 29 – Oswald of Worcester, Archbishop of York and Bishop of Worcester

Edward was chosen as king and was crowned by his main clerical supporters, the archbishops Dunstan and Oswald of Worcester.

Edgar had been a strong ruler who had forced monastic reforms on a probably unwilling church and nobility, aided by the leading clerics of the day, Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, Oswald of Worcester, Archbishop of York, and Bishop Æthelwold of Winchester.

Of other early sources, the life of Oswald of Worcester, attributed to Byrhtferth of Ramsey, adds that Edward was killed by Æthelred's advisers, who attacked him when he was dismounting.

The existing crypt of the cathedral dates from the 10th century and the time of St. Oswald, Bishop of Worcester.

There is an important connection to Fleury as Oswald, bishop of Worcester 961-92, being prior at the same time, was professed at Fleury and introduced the monastic rule of Fleury to Worcester.

Writing c. 1000, the Ramsey monk Byrhtferth relates that under the auspices of Oswald, bishop of Worcester, seven monasteries were founded in his diocese, notably including Pershore.

Ramsey Abbey was founded in 969 by Saint Oswald, Bishop of Worcester through the gift of a local magnate, Æthelwine.

Oda's nephew Oswald of Worcester later became Archbishop of York.

The ceremony, known as the pedilavium, was performed daily in some monasteries ; in 992, Bishop Oswald of Worcester died during its performance.

Ælfthryth was first married to Æthelwald, son of Æthelstan Half-King as recorded by Byrhtferth of Ramsey in his Life of Saint Oswald of Worcester.

His remains were buried in the cemetery adjoining the Church of St. Oswald of Worcester, while the head was taken to the Franciscan friary of Douai, to which the martyr belonged, where it is still preserved and venerated.

Saint Oswald bound the monastery under the Benedictine Rule in the tenth century, with novices being kept according to the Rule ; a century later Saint Wulstan, the Bishop responsible for the building of the Norman cathedral, was recorded as Magister et Custos Infantium ( Master and Keeper of the Children ) according to Florence of Worcester, and Puerorum Custos ( Keeper of the Boys ) according to William of Malmesbury.

This changed towards the end of the 10th century when Oswald of Worcester, in whose diocese the monastery lay, sent a party of 12 monks to follow more stringent rules at the Westbury monastery.

Æthelwold became the leading propagandist for the monastic reform movement, although he made enemies by his ruthless methods, and he was more extreme in his opposition to secular clergy than his fellow reformers, Saint Dunstan and Oswald of Worcester.
