Notes from Wedmore Genealogy Pages:-
P. 257. John Lewin Warren. The Rev. F. E. Warren, rector of Bardwell in Suffolk, writes to me in 1902 that "John Lewin Warren was my first cousin twice removed. He was great grandson of Rev. John Warren, rector of Boxford in Suffolk 1687-1722. His grandfather was John Warren, a solicitor of Long Melford."
In 1907 he writes, "I had a great great uncle, Archdeacon John Warren, died 1787. He had 19 children. One of his sons was John Warren, Vicar of Wedmore."
Blazon of John Warren
"7) (Zachariah Shrapnel Warren, M.A., Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, son of Rev. Willlam Hamilton Warren, Rector of Greensted, co. Essex, and Vicar of Great Budworth, co. Chester, and grandson of the Ven. John Warren, LL.D., Archdeacon of Worcester, and

The most common or prominent heraldic symbols in the Warren Coat of Arms (mistakenly called the Warren Family Crest) are the mascle and chequy.
The mascle is a close relative of the lozenge or diamond shape, but with the centre cut away revealing the background underneath. Guillim, writing in the 17th century reckoned the mascle to represent the mesh of a net, being the biblical symbol for “persuasion, whereby men are induced to virtue and verity”.
Chequy (a word with a surprising number of different spellings!) is what is known as a treatment, a repeating pattern usually used to fill the whole background of the shield with a series of alternately coloured squares. These squares are usually quite small (there should be at least 20 in total), giving the appearance of a chess board, but any combination of colours may be used. It can also be used as a patterning on some of the larger ordinaries, such as the pale and fess, in which case there are three rows of squares. Wade, an authority on heraldic meaning groups chequy with all those heraldic features that are composed of squares and believes that they represent “Constancy”, but also quotes another author Morgan, who says that they can also be associated with “wisdom…verity, probity…and equity”, and offers in evidence the existence of the common English saying that an honest man is a “Square Dealer”.
