I'm confused - This family tree shows him having sons, certainly Edward the Elder who was his successor. Find this particular family tree hard to follow...will look again!

wheresthehamster's link is the best - shows that he had 4 children, 3 daughters and a son (Edward the Elder - 2nd child on the line). No birth dates.
