Isabella de Warenne (c.1253- before 1292) was Baroness of Bywell by her marriage to 
John Balliol; there is however doubt that she lived to become his Queen consort when 
he succeeded to the Scottish throne.
Family[edit]

Isabella was the second of three children born to John de Warenne, 6th Earl of Surrey 
and his wife Alice de Lusignan, Countess of Surrey, maternal half-sister of Henry III of 
England. Her elder sister Eleanor, married Henry Percy and became mother of Henry 
de Percy, 1st Baron Percy. Their mother died while giving birth to Isabella's younger 
brother, William, who was killed in a tournament after he had married Joan de Vere 
and sired two children.

Life[edit]

On about 9 February 1281 Isabella married John Balliol, who had a claim to the 
Scottish throne. The marriage lasted about ten years. The Chronicle of Thomas Wykes 
records the marriage.[1] It has been established that the couple had at least one 
child:
Edward Balliol, Scottish pretender, (d.1364). Married to Marguerite de Taranto, 
daughter of Philip I, Prince of Taranto (d. 1332) - annulled or divorced with no issue.

However, other children have been linked to the couple as other possible issue:
Henry de Balliol. He was killed in the Battle of Annan on 16 December 1332, leaving 
no issue.[2]
Agnes (or Maud) de Balliol was married to Bryan FitzAlan, Lord FitzAlan, and feudal 
Baron of Bedale. They were parents to Agnes FitzAlan (b. 1298), who married Sir 
Gilbert Stapleton, Knt., of Bedale [3] (1291–1324). Gilbert is better known for his 
participation in the assassination of Piers Gaveston, Earl of Cornwall.

It is believed that Isabella did not live to see her husband become King of Scotland, 
so it is likely that she died before 1292, when her husband ascended to the throne. 
However, some are of the opinion that Isabella did survive long enough to see her 
husband succeed and then abdicate.
