William de Warenne, who crossed with William I. in 1066, was a distant See also:cousin of the Conqueror, his grandmother having been the See also:sister of Gunnora, wife of See also:Richard I. of Normandy. De Warenne received as his See also:share of See also:English spoil some 300 manors in See also:Yorkshire, See also:Norfolk, See also:Surrey and See also:Sussex, including See also:Lewes See also:Castle. He was wounded at the See also:siege of See also:Pevensey and died in 1089, a See also:year after he had received the See also:title of See also:earl of Surrey. Both he and his successors were more commonly styled Earl Warenne than earl of Surrey. His wife Gundrada, described on her See also:monument as still's
appears to have been a sister of Gharbod, earl of See also:Chester.

He was temporarily deprived of his earldom in nor for his support of See also:Robert, See also:duke of Normandy, but he commanded at the See also:battle of Tenchebrai (11o6), and was See also:governor of See also:Rouen in 11J5. He carried off See also:Elizabeth of See also:Vermandois, granddaughter of Henry I. of See also:France, and wife of Robert, See also:count of Meulan, and married her in 1118 after her See also:husband's See also:death.
William de Warenne, 3rd earl (d. 1148), was, with his See also:half-See also:brother, Robert de See also:Beaumont, See also:early of See also:Leicester, See also:present at the battle of See also:Lincoln, where his See also:flight early in the See also:day contributed to See also:Stephen's defeat.

King Stephen and Matilda of See also:Boulogne, and in 1163 See also:Hamelin See also:Plantagenet, natural son of See also:Geoffrey, count of See also:Anjou. Both Isabel's husbands appear to have See also:borne the title of Earl Warenne. Earl Hamelin was one of those who at the See also:council of See also:Northampton denounced See also:Becket as a traitor; he remained faithful to his half-brother, Henry II., during the trouble with the king's sons, and in Richard I.'s See also:absence on the crusade he supported the See also:government against the intrigues of See also:Prince See also:John.
William de \'i'arenne (d. 1240), son of Isabel and Hamelin, who succeeded to the earldom in 1202, enjoyed the See also:special confidence of King John. In 1212, when a See also:general See also:rebellion was apprehended, John committed to him the custody of the See also:northern shires; and he remained faithful to his See also:master throughout the troubles which preceded the See also:signing of the See also:Charter. In 1216, as the king's situation became desperate, the earl repented of his See also:loyalty, and, shortly before the death of John, made terms with Prince See also:- LOUIS

time. In 1238 he was evidently regarded as a See also:leader of the baronial opposition, for the See also:great council appointed him as one of the treasurers who were to prevent the king from squandering the See also:subsidy voted iii that year. His son John de Warenne (c. 1231-1304) succeeded in 1240, and at a later date See also:bore the See also:style of earl of Surrey and Sussex. In the battle of Lewes (1264) he fought under Prince See also:Edward, and on the defeat of the royal See also:army fled with the queen to France. His estates were confiscated but were subsequently restored. He served in Edward I.'s Welsh See also:campaigns, and took a still more prominent See also:part in Scottish affairs, being the king's See also:lieutenant in Scotland in 1296-1297. In See also:September 1297 he advanced to See also:Stirling, and, giving way to the clamour of his soldiers, was defeated by William See also:Wallace on the 11th. He invaded Scotland early the next year with a fresh army, and, joining Edward in the second expedition of that year, commanded the See also:rear at See also:Falkirk
By his first wife, Alice of See also:Lusignan, half-sister of Henry III., Earl Warenne had three See also:children—Alice, who married Henry See also:Percy, See also:father of the 1st See also:baron Percy; See also:Isabella, who married John See also:Baliol, afterwards king of Scots; and William, who pre-deceased his father, leaving a son John.
John de Warenne (1286-1347) succeeded his grandfather in 1304, and was knighted along with the prince of See also:Wales in 1306, two days after his See also:marriage with the prince's niece, See also:Joanna, daughter of Eleanor of See also:England, countess of See also:Bar. From that time onwards he was much engaged in the Scottish See also:wars, in which he had a See also:personal See also:interest, since John Baliol was his cousin and at one time his See also:- WARD

His northern estates reverted to the crown, and the See also:southern estates held by Joanna of Bar during her lifetime passed to Fitzalan.
