- From: Wikipedia[1]
Emma was the wife of Rudolf II de Warenne, son of Rudolf I of Warenne, who was a Norman aristocrat and progenitor of the Earl of Surrey family line.
Emma and Rudolf II married in or before 1059 - both were still living in 1074, and had several children including:
Rudolf III de Warenne - who inherited most of the family lands in Normandy.
William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey - who fought with William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings and was reward with vast land holdings as the Earl of Surrey.
Frederick de Warenne - who was killed by Hereward the Wake. He is listed in the Domesday book holding lands in Cambridgeshire and Norfolk. (Domesday, ff.196, ii.465b, 170b, 172b). Another source lists Frederick as the brother of William's wife, Gundred.
NOTE: Charles Cawley's Medieval Lands Index concludes that all of Rudulph's children were the progeny of his first marriage and not the children of Emma.
