Notes:

Warin and Joan had two children. Refer to life story of Dionisiede Anesty. Dionisiedi was stepmother to Joan and John. John must not have lived very long, because the life stories of Joan de Munchensi refer to her as the surviving child of Warin and Joan Marshall.

Warin and Joan had two children. Refer to life story of Dionisiede Anesty. Dionisiedi was stepmother to Joan and John. John must not have lived very long, because the life stories of Joan de Munchensi refer to her as the surviving child of Warin and Joan Marshall.

Warin married d'Anesty, Denise in 1234. Denise (daughter of de Anesty, Nicholas and de Pecche, Alice) was born in 1217 in Anstey, Hertfordshire, England; died on 23 May 1304 in England; was buried after 23 May 1304 in Greyfriars, London, London, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Anesty is a village and civil parish in the East Hertfordshire district of Hertfordshire. Little Hormead is a hamlet in Hertfordshire.

Dionisie de Anesty died between 1293 and 1304. She was the second wife of the wealthy landowner Warin de Munchensi, stepmother to the great heiress Joan de Munchensi (King Henry III's sister in law). Dionsie de Anesty (her forename is sometimes modernized to Denise) was the daughter and only child of Nicholas de Anesty, a farmer living at Anstey Castle in Hertfordshire. She inherited land from her mother, a descendant of Hamon Peche, sheriff of Cambridgeshire 1155-1165. Dionisie first married Walter Langton. (This is thought to have been the Walter who was brother of the archbishop of Canterbury, Stephen Langton, and fought in the Albigensian Crusade: he would have been about 70 by the time of the marriage.) There were no children of the marriage and Walter was dead by 1234. In that year Dionisie married Warrin de Munchensi, lord of Swanscombe, Painwick and other estates. Warin's first wife, Joan, daughter of William Marshal, had just died leaving two small children, John and Joan. Dionisie was stepmother to these; in 1236 she bore Warin a son, William. Warin died in 1255. Dionisie married 3rd Robert Butyller. There were no children of that marriage. She outlived her son William, a turbulent politician who died in 1287. She acted as his executrix and as guardian of her granddaughter, named Dionisie after her, who was still a child when William died. In 1293 Dionisie endowed a nunnery in the order of Poor Clares at Waterbeach in Cambridgeshire. Walter de Bibbesworth's Treatise, addressed to Madame Dyonise de Mountechensi is preceded in some manuscripts by a letter of dedication in which he explains, "you have asked me to put in writing for your children a phrase book to teach them French."

“Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
“JOAN MARSHAL, married after 1219 (as his 1st wife) WARIN DE MUNCHENSY, Knt., of Swanscombe, Kent, 2nd son of William de Munchensy, Knt., of Swanscombe, Kent, Winfarthing and Gooderstone, Norfolk, etc., by Aveline, daughter of Roger de Clare, Earl of Hertford [see CLARE 4.ii for his ancestry]. He was born about 1192 (came of age in 1213). He was heir about 1208 to his older brother, William de Munchensy. They had one son, John, and one daughter, Joan. He was involved on the side of the Barons against King John, and his lands were forfeited. He was taken prisoner at the Battle of Lincoln 20 May 1217. He returned to allegiance by Nov. 1217. In 1221 he accompanied the king to the Siege of Byham. He was serving in Wales in 1223, with his brother-in-law, William Marshal, Earl of Pembroke. He was with the king overseas in 1229-30, and in Wales at the end of 1233. He married (2nd) between November 1234 and June 1235 DENISE DE ANESTY, widow of Walter Langton (died 1234), of Langton, Lincolnshire, and Ridgwell, Essex (brother of Archbishop Stephen Langton), and daughter and heiress of Nicholas de Anesty, of Ansty and Little Hormead, Hertfordshire, Bourn, Cambridgeshire, etc., by ___, sister of Hamon Pecche. They had one son, William. In 1237-8 he and his wife, Denise, acquired 1-1/2 virgate in Bourn, Cambridgeshire from William Haretail. He was serving in Gascony in 1242-44, where he took part in the Battle of Saintes. He was summoned against the Scots in 1244, and, in June 1245, for service in Wales. He was in Gascony again in 1252. He was at Dover 26 Dec. 1254, the day King Henry III appears to have crossed from Boulogne. SIR WARIN DE MUNCHENSY died testate about 20 July 1255. His widow, Denise, married (3rd) before 4 June 1260 ROBERT LE BOTELER (or LE BOTILLER). In 1260 he and his wife, Denise, were granted protection, they then going beyond seas. In 1266 he was granted a safe conduct, he then coming to the king's court. His wife, Denise, again went beyond seas in 1271. ROBERT LE BOTELER died before autumn 1272. In 1294 his widow, Denise, founded the nunnery of Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire. She died shortly before 23 May 1304, and was buried in the church of the Grey Friars, London.
