Biography

Disambiguation

There is more than one Margaret Warren. It is easy to confuse them, and the profiles of each Margaret may contain details which belong to another. For this reason it is important to referred to them by their married names and identify here the salient facts about each.  :

• Margaret Warren Hill. Margaret de Warren, born about 1378 in Shropshire, England, wife of Griffith Hill, and the daughter of Griffith Warenne.
• Margaret Warren Browne, Margaret de Warren, born about 1374 in Poynton, Cheshire, wife of Richard Browne, and the daughter of Margaret de Stafford and [[Warenne-82|John de Warenne].
• Margaret Warren Mainwaring , Margaret Warren, born 1425 or 1475, who married William Mainwaring appears to have lived a hundred years later, marrying William in 1499. She was the daughter of either Isabel Warmingham or Isabel Cheney and and either Griffin Warren or John Warren.

Noted genealogist Todd Farmerie notes that the Warenne of Ightfield line, that apparently descends from Warenne of Whitchurch, and in turn from a junior Warenne family, separate from the line of the earls at least as early as the Conquest...as it appears, is largely bogus. The wives can't be trusted, and the exact connections are dubious. Even the contemporary records are problematic to interpret. This has been discussed extensively in the archives (search for Warenne and Ightfield or Warren and Ightfield). ^[1]
