Yes, it's not a very pronounced E, is it?
All the nordic languages are sisters of the germanian language tree and yes, the germans also use � and � in much the same way.

The eth is what the th in "Aethelwer" should be, actually. It is used in, among others, Old English and Icelandic, and represents a voiced dental fricative (th in "the," for example).
