There are no records of him prior to his becoming archbishop. He possibly owed his elevation to the <a href="/wiki/List_of_monarchs_of_Kent" title="List of monarchs of Kent">Kentish monarch</a>. The records after his elevation to Canterbury are mainly about disputes over land, but knowledge of his time in office is hampered by the destruction of many of the contemporary records. After his death, he was <a href="/wiki/Pre-congregation" class="mw-redirect" title="Pre-congregation">considered</a> a <a href="/wiki/Saint" title="Saint">saint</a> and a <a href="/wiki/Hagiography" title="Hagiography">life</a> about him was written in the 12th century. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Life">Life</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bregowine&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Life"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Various stories have been told about Bregowine's origins, including that he was a nobleman and a continental Saxon who converted to Christianity and came to <a href="/wiki/Canterbury" title="Canterbury">Canterbury</a> because of the saintly reputation of <a href="/wiki/Theodore_of_Tarsus" title="Theodore of Tarsus">Theodore of Tarsus</a>. Others say that he owed his elevation to King <a href="/wiki/%C3%86thelbert_II_of_Kent" title="Æthelbert II of Kent">Æthelbert II of Kent</a>, but all these stories rest on works that were written after the Norman conquest of England in 1066. There are no contemporary records of Bregowine before he was <a href="/wiki/Archbishop" title="Archbishop">archbishop</a>. It does not appear, however, that he was of Mercian origins like his predecessors <a href="/wiki/Tatwin" class="mw-redirect" title="Tatwin">Tatwin</a> and <a href="/wiki/Nothhelm" title="Nothhelm">Nothhelm</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-DNB_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DNB-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Whatever his upbringing, Bregowine was consecrated as archbishop on 27 September 761.<sup id="cite_ref-Handbook214_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Handbook214-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> His election took place in a brief period when <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Kent" title="Kingdom of Kent">Kent</a> was free of <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Mercia" class="mw-redirect" title="Kingdom of Mercia">Mercian</a> dominance between 756 and 764, so the story that he owed his election to Æthelbert does fit with the time frame.<sup id="cite_ref-Brooks80_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Brooks80-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He wrote letters to Archbishop <a href="/wiki/Lullus" title="Lullus">Lul</a> of <a href="/wiki/Mainz" title="Mainz">Mainz</a> which still exist, and which discuss an earlier meeting between the two men.
