William Earl of Arundel was the son of the second husband of Warin’s maternal grandmother. "…Warinus de Muntchenesi…" witnessed a document dated 25 Aug 1223[1709].
Bracton records a claim, dated 1224, by "Warinus de Monte Canisio" against "Walterum de Godarduilla" requesting "feodum…in Wicham" which had been held by "Willelmo de Monte Canisio fratre eiusdem Warini cuius heres ipse est dum fuit infra etatem"[1710].
Bracton records a claim, dated 1224, by "Prior de Suwere" against "Warinum de Monte Canisio" for "ecclesiam de Suanescamp…advocacionem" which "comitissa Cecilia avia sua" [Cecilia Countess of Hereford, Warin’s great-aunt not his grandmother] granted to "Jacobum le Sauuage"[1711].
Bracton records a claim in 1232 made by “Warinus de Monte Canisio” against “Adam de Kailly et Mabiliam uxorem eius...Isabellam de Friuilla...Matillidem Giffard” for land “in Luddeduna” inherited from “Cecilia [...comitissa] antecess sua...quia obiit sine herede de se descendit...Agneti...sorori et heredi et quia ipse Willelmus obiit sine herede...de se descendit...isti Warino...fratri et heredi suo”, and that the defendants replied that “Cecilia comitissa” had given the land, which “Willelmus de Pictavia...virum suum” held for one knight’s fee, to “Ricardo Giffard patri predictarum Mabilie et Isabelle...Osbertus filius Ricardi” and that “mortuo predicto Willelmo” Cecilia had married “Walterum de Meinne”[1712].

m firstly JOAN Marshal, daughter of WILLIAM Marshal Earl of Pembroke & his wife Isabel de Clare Ctss of Pembroke. The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire, names (in order) ”Matilda…Johanna…Isabella” as the daughters of “Willielmi Marescalli comitis Penbrochiæ”[1714]. The same source records in a later passage that "secunda filia…Willihelmi Marescalli…Johanna" married "Warino de Montecaniso" by whom she was mother of "Johannem de Montecaniso" who died childless and "Johannam sororem eius" who married "domino Willihelmo de Valentia"[1715].

"Warin de Montechanes and Denise his wife" were granted rights "in the demesne lands of Rodewell" dated 21 Oct 1242[1717]. She married thirdly (before 29 Sep 1260) [Robert/Richard] Butyller.

Warin [II] & his first wife had two children:

2. JOAN de Munchensy (-1307 before 20 Sep). The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "Johannam" as the daughter of "Warino de Montecaniso" and his wife, adding that she married "domino Willihelmo de Valentia"[1719]. Matthew of Paris names her and her father when he records her marriage[1720]. A charter dated 13 Aug 1247 ordered "William de Valence the king’s brother and Joan his wife to have seisin of the lands which belonged to John de Muntchesny of the inheritance of Walter Marshall late Earl of Pembroke, and which after John’s death ought to descend to Joan as his sister and heir"[1721]. m (before 13 Aug 1247) GUILLAUME de Lusignan "de Valence", son of HUGUES [XI] "le Brun" de Lusignan Comte de la Marche et d'Angoulême & his wife Isabelle Ctss d'Angoulême ([Cistercian Abbey of Valence, near Lusignan] after 1225[1722]-in England [1294/18 May 1296], bur Westminster Abbey).

He was summoned to parliament 6 Feb 1298, whereby he is held to have become Lord Vere.

[Source: Medieval Lands, "Warin [II] de Muchensy", downloaded 8 August 2018, dvmansur, see link in Sources.]

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]
