I have gathered a large number of wills dating back to 1500 from the Canterbury Records concerning the Waring family, but I am having a hard time making sense of who is who. This is primarily because they keep using the same names per generation. I usually take Harry Wright Newman's work as gospel, but I think he maybe wrong on this one.
List of wills I have transcribed:
1510 Nicholas Warynge Saint Chads, Shrewsbury Shropshire merchant
1544 Alexander Warynge Calais, France merchant of the staple
1545 Christian Waryng Saint Chads, Shrewsbury Shropshire widow
1545 Nicholas Waryng London citizen and salter
1610 Richard Waringe Saint Chads, Shrewsbury Shropshire
1624 Margery Waringe Shrewsbury Salop widow
1625 Edmond Warynge Owlbury Salop
1638 Nicholas Waringe Shrewsbury Salop gentleman
1658 Walter Waring Oldbury Salop esquire
1663 Sampson Wareing Calvert County Maryland
1669 Richard Wareing London esquire
1671 Charles Waring Bury Hall Warwick gentleman
1671 Sampson Wareing Bridgenorth Salop gentleman
1678 William Waringe St. Anne Aldergate London merchant
1684 Richard Waring Woodcott and Shrewsbury Salop gentleman
1688 Basil Waring Calvert County Maryland
1694 Richard Waring Shrewsbury Salop draper
1696 John Waring Shrewsbury Salop
1699 Gyles Wareing Bishops Castle Salop
1699 Sarah Waring Shrewsbury Salop widow
1731 Marsham Waring Prince George's County Maryland gentleman
1743 Richard Marsham Waring Prince George's County Maryland
1744 Samuel Waring Prince George's County Maryland
1746 James Haddock Waring Prince George's County Maryland
1752 Martha Waring Prince George's County Maryland widow
1761 William Waring Talbot County Maryland
1765 Francis Waring Prince George's County Maryland Major
1766 Richard Marsham Waring Prince George's County Maryland gentleman
1776 Basil Waring Prince George's County Maryland
1785 Elizabeth Waring Anne Arundel County Maryland widow
1813 James Waring Prince George's County Maryland
1821 Eleanor Waring Prince George's County Maryland
Hoping to find help with the tree of these names
