• Notes

  Sir John de Warrenne 7th Earl of Surrey was born in August 1231 in England.1 He was the son of William de Warenne 6th Earl of Surrey and Maud Marshal Countess of Norfolk and Warenne.1 In August 1247 John, married Alice de Lusignan, daughter of Hugh X de Lusignan Count de La Marche and Angoulême and Isabella of Angoulême Queen of England, in England.2,1 In 1254, he accompanied Edward, prince of Wales to Gascony.1 Sir John de Warrenne 7th Earl of Surrey was knighted by Edward, Prince of Wales in 1254 in Spain.1 In 1254, he accompanied Edward, prince of Wales to Gascony.1 He went to Almain in 1257 with Richard, Earl of Cornwall, King elect of the Romans. In 1263, he joined with Simon de Montfort and Prince Edward and fought in the Battle of Lewes on 14 May. Upon losing the battle, he and the Kings’s brothers fled to pevensey. In 1265, he fought in the Battle of Evesham under Prince Edward. The next year he commanded the royalist forces at Chesterfield. He received pardon for his actions in 1267, and the next year on 24 June he took up the cross. It appears however that he never went on Crusade. Two years later, in 1269, he violently quarreled with Sir Alan la Zouche in Westminster Hall, the result being that Sir Alan died of his wounds. Sir Alan’s son barely escaped with his life. Earl John fled to Reigate being perused by Prince Edward. He begged for mercy, and on 4 August 1270, was pardoned, having agreed to pay a large sum to the King. Four days after the King’s death, Sir John swore allegiance to Prince Edward. As Prince Edward was at that time returning home from Crusade, Earl John was appointed one of the Guardians of the Realm. In 1277 and 1294, he was summoned to serve against the Welsh, and was summoned to serve against the Scotts in 1291, 1297, and 1300.1 He served on 3 September 1296 as Keeper of the Realm of Scotland.1 On 27 April 1296, Earl John defeated the Scots at the Battle of Dunbar. The next year in August his advance guard under Henry de Percy was attacked, though the attack was repelled. He continued on the Battle of Sterling, where he was defeated on 10 September 1269. He fled to Berwick, but he soon abandoned it. Later he commanded the rear guard at the Battle of Falkirk on 22 July 1298. He commanded the second division at the siege of Caerlaverock Castle in 1300.1 He died on Monday, 29 September 1304 in Kennington, England, at age 73 years and 1 month.1 He was buried in Lewes Priory Church, Lewes, Surrey, England, before the high altar.1
