About Gundred de Warenne

Gundreda de Warenne, Countess of Warwick was an English noblewoman, the wife of Earl Roger. She was the daughter and eldest child of William II, earl Warenne by the Capetian princess Isabel of Vermandois daughter of Count Hugh the Great of Vermandois and niece of King Philip I of France. On the death of her first husband Count Robert of Meulan and Leicester in 1118 Isabel promptly married Earl William II de Warenne and since Gundreda had an infant daughter by 1138 it is most likely she was the eldest child of the marriage. The Flemish name Gundreda was given her in recollection of her father's mother Gundreda de Warenne.
