Research Notes
Nayland-with-Wissington
Nayland-with-Wissington are two small parishes (Nayland and Wiston) that lie together on the north bank of the River Stour in the far southern edge of Suffolk County next to Essex County. It is a mostly agricultural community that dates back to early Norman times.
The Warren Family wills recorded in Nayland Parish substantiate the Warren family line back to this Robert Warren (1485-1544) and his brother Thomas.

Suffolk Subsidy of 1524
In the Subsidy of 1524, Robert Waryn of Wyston was down for a tax of four pence on 1 pound of wages. Also on the Wyston list was a John Waryn taxed 3s on goods valued at 6 pounds. John was the second wealthiest man on the Wyston list, was probably the father of Robert.
Probably Thomas Warren, also of Wiston, who left a will dated 1558, was Robert's brother.[2]
Burial at St Mary's
As requested in his will, he was buried in the churchyard of St Mary the Virgin at Wiston. (Same place as his brother Robert Warren (1485-1544).) [3]
Ancestral Links
In the Subsidy return for Suffolk in 1327, there is listed Walter Waryn of Nayland, taxed for 3 shillings, which represented one twentieth of the value of his moveables. There were several others named Warren in other towns of Suffolk. Walter, however, being the only one in Nayland, was presumably the ancestor of Robert.[4]
