father may have been Harold Blaatand, King of Denmark. Harold Blaatand/Bluetooth brought Christianity to Denmark and unified Scandinavia. He is commonly thought to have been Denmark's greatest king. Harold Bluetooth (don't you love that name?) was also the great-grandson of Alfred the Great, King of England. Alfred, a Saxon King, is often considered England's greatest King.

Another possibility is that Herfastus was not Harold's son but rather the son of another Danish Knight named Herfastus "The Dane". This seems more likely and is reflected in the on-line family genealogy. In any event, William de Warren descended from a Danish noble (King or Knight).
