The supposed ancestry of Ceawlin is: Cynric, son of Cerdic. This ancestry is most likely bogus. In response to these claims, Todd A. Farmerie in an email to the GEN-MEDIEVAL-L mailing list in 1995 said:

"From here on, there is no reason to accept it as anything but fantasy. The supposed pedigree of Cerdic's "ancestors" was conclusively proven to be a fabrication by K. Sisam in his study "Anglo-Saxon Royal Genealogies", in Proceedings of the British Academy, vol. xxxix (1953), pp. 287-348. Sisam was even able to document some of the stages in the invention process. ... Cerdic and Cynric are shadowy figures whose very existence is doubted by some historians. Even if we accept the existence of Cerdic and Cynric (said in various accounts to be the son or grandson of Cerdic), the stories are too contradictory to place any confidence in their supposed genealogical affiliation."
