WARREN Family History
This webpage attempts to share some of the Family History of my grandmother’s WARREN Family. The spelling of the name has changed many times over the years. The immigrant ancestor Richard spelled the name WARING. Various records show different spellings for this family surname. In addition, subsequent descendants spelled the name several different ways, including Waren, Wearen, Wearren, Warin, and Warren. I have been in contact with members of this family today that still use the spelling of WARING!
FYI — This is NOT the Warren family who sailed to America on the Mayflower. Some online genealogies have confused our Warren family with the Mayflower Warren, however, there is no connection.
In about 1904 the following family history was written by my great-grandfather, Arthur Alexander Warren. The original handwritten copy of this history was found in the attic of the Warren log house near Warrens Mill, Kentucky. No attempts have been made to correct any misspelled words, incomplete sentences, etc. I’d like to thank my cousin, Glen Warren for his many years of Warren family research which made it possible for me to acquire this information.
I have published this information here in the hope that other Warren family researchers might be able to gain some knowledge of their family. Feel free to email me if you find a connection or you have more information to share.
“Arthur and Martha Warren moved from near “Lancaster” County seat of Garrard County, in a farm wagon and stopped at Graham school house, about 100 yards west of the present school house. They lived there about three months, then moved to Morgantown in a farm wagon and crossed Green River at Wilson place diagonal up the river on opposite shore (forded the river).
Morgantown at that time was very crude. The yard fences were mostly made of fence-rales.(worm fences)
Arthur Warren worked at the Carpenter trade and cabinet work. While there John L., the youngest child was born. He then moved back near Graham school house to the John Austin place. There his wife Martha died, Arthur then let Uncle Joe James take Samual F. and J.L., the baby, to keep for him until he could do better.
While there J.L., just in school age, had to be chastised and he threatened to quit boarding if Uncle Joe did not let up on him. (it was all free gratis).
While living at this place Arthur Warren married Becky (this should be Susan) Kessinger. Sister to Jim and Bill Kessenger. To this union was born one child, Smith, (a girl). She married George Gardner, he was known as (Grabbers) He was supposed to be a minister of the Gospel (?) Church named Innominata.
When Arthur Warren moved from this place he went to the then Frank James place, where the Warren’s Mill school and Church now stands. At that time it took in running from the Boy Butler place on hill above Gilstrap straight west to Zett Nomes place, then North to Bryant place, thence East to the Elmore Stewart line, thence South to the beginning.
While there, he, Arthur, married his third wife, Jane M. Cochran, daughter of Samuel and Millie Cochran. She had one son Andy Cochran, who died in the Civil War. To this union were born Thomas Jefferson and Martha Warren, who died in her teens,. She was “afflicted” from childhood. Thomas Jefferson Warren married Janie Atchison To this union was born one son, Finis Warren.
Samuel F. Warren went with Alexander Hobdy, W.E. (odd) Hudson, and Volney James and their families to Corning, Arkansas and while there the Civil war broke out and he was conscripted into the Confederate Army and fought and dodged and did patrol on guard duty through the war. At one time his beat was on a 12 mile of plank road that crossed “Nigger Wool” swamp when it was a wilderness of water, grass, buck bushes, and cane from knee high to twenty feet. The road crossed from Grey’s Ridge to what is now Morehouse. To-day the swamp is in a high state of cultivation and will grow most anything that grows in the United States. The soil is from three to twenty feet deep and to-day some of the best roads in the state crosses that swamp.
While he was in the war he was in the battle of the Iron Mountain and learned after the war his baby brother, John Logan, was in the same battle. While he was on the mountain he was on a six mule load of lead “pigs” (about the size of a paving brick) and the backing pin that held the neck yoke jumped out and they had to whip the team about one mile.
When they moved back to Kentucky they used Strap Skien wagons drawn by oxen and used coal tar for lubercation. There were S.F. and wife, W. E. Hodson,Wife, and one daughter, Lizzie, Sam Hobdy, Wife and five daughters, Acrata, then old Hudsons wife, Eveline then S.F.Warrens wife Sallie (Sis), Idel, and Fannie. Mrs. Volney James and two children, WmM. James (Brud), and Berrilla James accompionied by Liberty Smith (Todd) Warren.
They came North on Walnut Ridge to Poplar Bluff, forded Black River there then East to dexter, and then North East across Nigger Wool swamp on the famous plank road. While crossing on that road Brud’s Oxen balked on a bridge and backed the wagon off the bridge and S.F.W. who was behind him whipped his team up and pushed him on across.
John Logan Warren, youngest son and sixth child of Arthur and M. Warren, (nee-Arbuckle) was born May 11th, 1844, in Coley County, Ill., near Mattoon, Ill. His Father moved to Butler County, Ky. When J.L. was a wee baby and in a short time his Mother died and John L. had a hard time for awhile. When he was a small child his father let old Uncle Joe James keep him, and he went to school some when in the Graham school neighborhood, as Joe James lived near the John Austin place. At the breaking out of the Civil war in 1861 he went into the Union Army and faught with them until the close of the war. John L. was in lots of hard fought battles but never got a scratch, but his health was impared through explosions and finally lost one lung,–Came back and married Miss Burilla C. James, second child and only daugher of Volney and Martha James, on November 12th, 1866, in Butler County, Kentucky.
Burilla C. James was born August 31st, 1846 in Ohio County, Kentucky.
Martha Evelyn Warren, first child and second child of J.L. and B.C. Warren was born April 29th, 1870- Eugene and Minnie J. Warren were born August 23rd, 1875. Minnie J. Warren died Feb. 1st, 1879 and Eugyne died May 14th, 1890.
Everett E. Warren, fifth child and third son of J.L. and B.C. Warren was born April 14th, 1888 in Butler County, Ky.
Francis Arbuckle, son of Tabitha (Drinkard) was born in 1801 and married Miss Sevastian of Garrard County, Kentucky. They had four children- John Wesley, (William Drinkard), Martha, Samuel, Tabitha Arbuckle.
John Wesley the oldest son was a soldier in the Mexican war under old Zac Taylor. When the war was over John W. Arbuckle came back to Garrard Co., Ky. And married Miss Lucy McMillion-oldest daughter of Robert McMillion. They had eight children – George Ann, Mart Gert, Callie, Belle, Betty, Ella, and Oliva Cordie also one boy, Robert Fulton Arbuckle.”
The rest of this Warren Family History contains only dates of births, marriages and deaths. I have included those persons and dates in the descendency chart shown below.
WARING>WARREN – An American Family
With the help of over 30 years of research by Glen Warren (my 3rd cousin, once removed,) I will attempt to briefy include much of the known early history of the Warren family, so that other Warren family members might find their family information.
My cousin William Wallace (Wally) Warren and his father before him, researched the WARREN family history for many years. Wally spent five years writing “An American Family Called Warren” which was released several years ago. The book, which is written in narrative form, contains this Waring/Warren family history back to 1616 at Devonshire, England and identifies the family members through almost 400 years spanning 16 generations. The book has 15 chapters with an index of over 2500 Warren and allied family names. Each of six separate branches are located in the text as well as in 21 graphic charts that were generated with a new computer program which traces the family generation by generation helping to sort out who is who. There are stories of their activities interwoven with current events that will intrigue, entertain and inform you and your children for many years to come.
Unfortunately Wally Warren has passed away and no more copies of the Warren book are available for purchase. We have hopes that one day Wally’s son and daughter will assist us in publishing an update to the book. With that in mind, I am collecting information about descendants of this Waring/Wearen/Warren family. Please contact me if you have information to share about this family or if you would like more information.
Genealogical research has recently revealed Arthur to have been a grandson of Virginia born Jacob Wearren, who moved to Madison County, Kentucky by 1795. He then moved to Lincoln County and back to Madison before settling in Garrard County in 1804. Within a few decades many of his descendants had changed to the more familiar Warren name, but some in that area still use the Wearen or Wearren name. Arthur appears beyond reasonable doubt to have been the second child of John Wearen, one of the seven identified children of Jacob to have had families in northeastern Garrard County.
Arthur married as a Wearen in 1831 to Martha “Patsy” Arbuckle (1812-1846), daughter of Samual and Tabitha Drinkard Arbuckle, and moved to Butler County in 1839 with the first three of their six children. They were joined there in 1846 by his brother, Liberty (1811-1850), who also had six children. They continued to use the Wearen name for a while, as shown by tax lists, but they were otherwise generally listed by others as Warrens. Liberty was buried as a Wearren, Arthur as a Warren. With the exception of Arthur’s grandson, Finis Wearren, all their descendants have used the Warren name. All Warrens with a Warren’s Mill ancestral home background are descended from Arthur or Liberty. There is no known relationship to the Warrens who lived in the southern part of Butler County.
Arthur married Susan Kessinger in 1853 and they had two children, He married Jane Cochran in 1858, and they also had two children. His son, Samuel Francis (1835-1911) was a Civil War Confederate soldier, conscripted while in Arkansas. Another son, John Logan (1844-1905, was a Union soldier volunteer. They learned after the war of having been in the opposing forces at the Battle of Iron Mountain. Both returned to Warren’s Mill and lived out their lives there, with John dying of a lung ailment of wartime origin.
Descendants of Liberty intermarried in the 1800’s with Clark, Embry, Cochran, James, Bradley, Allen, Adams, and Arbuckle families. A daughter, Martha Green (1850-1929), married Richard S. James, becoming ancestor to many James families in several states. Kentucky State Representative Willard Allen is a fifth generation descendant of Liberty Warren.
Descendants of Arthur intermarried in that period with Hobdy, James, Gully, Gardner, Atchison, Short, Bennett, Butler, Liles, and Goodall families. His son, John Logan, was father of William Volney (1867-1938) who had fifteen children born in Butler County. One of these, Ercel Haward Warren (1896-1957), served two terms in the 1940’s as Butler County Court Clerk. He had five children, one of whom is this writer, Glendon E. Warren (1926- ). A genealogy of the Jacob Wearren line has been compiled, and is available at the Butler County Historical Society and the Butler and Ohio County libraries, since 1986.

Research by another Warren researcher has shown that the Martin Warren/Waren listed below is NOT the son of Michael Waren and Catherine Hinton. This Martin Warren was a son of James Warren, Sr. of Lincoln Co., KY. And that James Warren Sr. was a brother to Capt. William Warren of Lincoln Co., KY and Hugh Warren, Sr. of Green Co., KY. Martin Warren was a Rev. War soldier and moved from KY and settled in Warrensburg, Missouri and that town is named after him.

Hi my name is John McDonald and I am trying to help out a cousin of mine who is the grandson of Anne Blanch Warren of Allegheny co PA .His Line from what census data tells me goes like this
7 Anne Blanch Warren B.1876 M Charles Hamilton
6. Samuel Warren B 1840-1915 M. Annie lutz Allegheny PA
5. David Warren 1811 -1865 M Elizabeth McGuire . Allegheny PA
4. Thomas Warren 1770-1856 Allegheny PA M Rebecca Baden .Allegheny PA
3Fredrick Warren . M Mary Morgan Pittsburgh Allegheny Pa
2.Issac Warren 1720-1750 Camden NJ M Pricilla Matlack
1. Edmund Warren 1674 -1749 Norwalk Conn M Elizabeth Bouton Long Isle NY
all from Richard Warren (Waring)1641 and Lydia Ackerly Long Isle NY
Does this sound correct to you ? your tree does show these people down to I think Issac Warren . the Ancestry trees take a weird turn towards the Mayflower but I think you have a much better grasp on the family !! . any help would be apprieciated Thanks John McDonald.
Is anyone in this family group participating in a DNA Surname Project? My maiden name is Waren. My Dad is a participant. Our earlist known ancestor is Edmund Warren, b. Roane Co., TN, 22 Jan 1787. We have that his father is John Warren, b. Virginia and his father was a Thomas Warren, but we don’t have any specifics on these last 2. Family lore has a connection to General Joseph Warren. I would appreciate sharing DNA Project info with anyone who has it…to prove or disprove a connection.
Hello,
I am not personally aware of any from our Waring>Warren line who have been tested. I am not in contact with any of my grandmother’s Warren cousins, so I myself have nobody to ask. I have been in contact with many from this line — one who kept the original spelling of Waring, and some who have some of the other spellings (Wearen, Waren) as well, so it would be quite interesting if we could get some of them to get tested. I looked at the Warren DNA results webpage and did not recognize any names from our line. From now on when a cousin contacts me, I will encourage them to get tested.
If indeed your ancestor is General Joseph Warren, then your line is NOT our line, as General Warren descended from the Mayflower passenger Richard Warren (c 1580-1628), and is a descendant of Nathaniel Warren. See this website for Warren descendants: http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~sam/warren.html
Our line descends from Richard WARING (1615-1670) who married Elizabeth Ivatt.
Regards,
Elaine Powell
