Notes


WALERAN, son of ROGER Earl of Warwick & his wife Gundred de Warenne of Surrey (-[24 Dec 1203]). The Annals of Waverley record that “Wallerannus” succeeded “fratri suo Willelmo in comitatu Warevici” in 1185[1353]. He succeeded his brother in 1184 as Earlof Warwick. His succession was later challenged by someone claiming to be his older brother returned from Palestine[1354]. m firstly MARGARET [Margery], daughter of --- (-before 1196). Earl Waleran made a grant at Pinley for the soul of his wife Margery, as well those of his parents and his brother William[1355]. According to the Complete Peerage[1356], Earl Waleran's firstwife was Margaret de Bohun, daughter of Humphrey de Bohun & his wife Margaret of Hereford. This appears chronologically improbable considering the likely birth dates of the children of Humphrey/Margaret in the 1140s, and in light of the estimated birth date of Waleran/Margaret's son in [1190]. One possibility is that Margaret was the daughter of the younger Humphrey de Bohun and his wife Margaret of Huntingdon, who were married in early 1171. A more likely hypothesis is set out in the on-line Corrections and Additions to the Complete Peerage[1357], where it is suggested that Waleran's first wife was Margery de Oilly, daughter of Henry de Oilly of Hook Norton, Oxford & his wife Matilda de Bohun who, according to the Complete Peerage[1358], was the first wife of Waleran's son, Henry, despite the obvious chronological difficulties of the latter considering her birth date before 1163, when her father died. This latter hypothesis appears confirmed by a writ dated 7 Mar "47 Hen III", after the death of "John de Plessetis alias de Plascetis earl of Warwick", which notes that "Humphrey de Bohun gave the manor [of Bradenham, Buckinghamshire] in free marriage to Henry de Oylly with Maud his sister", names "a son Henry and two daughters" as their children, adding that "from the elder [daughter] issued Thomas earl of Warwick and one Margery"[1359]. Bracton records a claim, dated 1234, by "Walterus filius Symonis" against "Thomam comitem de Warewyc" which records that "Matillis de Boun antecessor ipsius Symonis"was "uxor Henrici de Oylly" by whom she had "filium Henricum de Oylly" who died without heirs but had "sororem Margeriam" who was the mother of "Henricum…comitem de Warewyc et qui fuit pater ipsius Thome"[1360]. m secondly ([1196/98]) as her second husband, ALICE de Harcourt, widow of JOHN de Limesey Lord of Cavendish, Suffolk, daughter of ROBERT [I] de Harcourt & his wife Millicent de Camville (-after Sep 1212). The 1198/99 Pipe Roll records "Robert de Harcurt"in Warwick and Leicestershires and “the Earl of Warwick accounts for 100 marks for having to wife Robert de Harecurt’s daughter, widow of John de Limesi”[1361]. Earl Waleran & his first wife had two children: 1. HENRY ([1190]-1229 before 17 Oct). 2. WALERAN (-after 30 Nov 1208).
