The ODNB article on Ewen says that his daughter Mary had four husbands - one of them is given as "Warin Fitzwarin (d. 1299)". I can't find much of anything on "Warin Fitzwarin" with Google. I wonder if that is a typo for "William Fitzwarin". There's a book on GoogleBooks by John Higgitt, titled The Murthly hours: devotion, literacy and luxury in Paris, England and the Gaelic West, published by University of Toronto Press in 2000, that says the fourth husband was William Fitz Warin, who was Constable of Urquhart Castle, and died in 1299. It also says that Mary died in 1300-1303, and she and William were buried in Grey Friar's Church in London.[1]. The book gives a footnote for this bit, but I can't see what it says. Does anyone know more about Mary's marriages? Is the ODNB in error with "Warin Fitzwarin"?--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 07:06, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
David Sellar wrote the ODNB article. In Hebridean Sea Kings he also gives "Warin Fitzwarin". He cites Inchaffray Charters (p. lxiv), and Cockayne (1953) The Complete Peerage (vol. XII[1], pp. 382-3). Inchaffray Charters can be seen here: [2]. It gives "William Fitz Warin". I don't know about Cockayne. Higgitt's footnote gives the same Cockayne source. Also given is Knights of Edward I (vol 2, pp. 68-69). As well as The Grey friars of London (p. 74), which can be seen here: [3]. It gives William Fitzwarin.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 08:20, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Just found another book on GoogleBooks that gives "William Fitzwarin": Sue Sheridan Walker (1993), Wife and widow in medieval England, University of Michigan Press (p. 133). One of the sources Sellar gave in the ODNB article (2004) was his Hebridean Sea Kings (2000). Maybe he just repeated an older error of his? If the Cockayne source says "William" I think it might clinch it.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 08:28, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
