Warin de Metz

  • Born: Metz, Moselle, Lorraine, France
  • Married:
  • Died: After 1115, Bramley, Shropshire, England

  Research Notes:

Eyton refers to the compositions known as the Fitz-Warin Chronicles, compiled from the songs of Trouvères, which purport to give an account of "Warin de Metz" and his descendants the FitzWarin families of Whittington and Alberbury in Shropshire. The Legend of Fulk Fitz Warin names "Guaryn de Meez, le vaylaunt" as "cosyn" of “Johun duc de la Petite Bretaigne” in a passage which is clearly anachronistic and legendary. "Hamo Peverel" and "Warinus" are named among the 14 lay witnesses to the record of an Archidiaconal Chapter which sat at Castle Holgate in [1115] under the presidency of Richard Bishop of London, enquiring into the parochial jurisdiction of Wenlock Priory.

Warin was presumably deceased when his two sons witnessed the charter dated to [1145].... 1

  Marriage Information:

The name of Warin's wife is not known.
