Marie, sister of Richard GUET
General Notes:
Her marriage is confirmed by the Annals of Bermondsey which record the donation in 1098 by "Ricardus Guet frater comitissæ Warennæ" of "manerium de Cowyk" to the monastery. As William de Warenne's son must have been below marriageable age before his father died, this reference can only apply to a second wife of William de Warenne senior.
[The necrology of Longpont records the death "XIV Kal Oct" of "Marie comitisse de ---ranna". It is not certain that the incomplete place name indicates "Warenna". However, two other references to the Warenne family are included in the same necrology. If this hypothesis is correct, the second wife of Earl William is the only countess whose name is not otherwise recorded so the entry could relate to her.] 1
