Notes for Child: George W. Warren
On a small slip of paper given to the author from his mother Leon Warren had written that George was raised by a Quaker family in Pennsylvania. However in speaking with Catherina Warren Lohstreter she recalls no knowledge of such tradition. George is presently the earliest Warren in the ancestry of the family known. All that can be said to date of his parents is that according to census records George had stated that both of his parents had been born in Pennsylvania. Seemingly George had moved around considerably during the early years of his marriage. The Warren Family Bible states that he was born in Philadelphia on the 4th of July 1822. The family bible records the marriage of George to Emily Cook in New Port, Kentucky in 1852. The year of marriage is also recorded in Emily's death certificate. The next place the family shows up is in Wayne County Ohio where they have two children. A girl dies at the age of 3mos. Jesse is born there in 1855. Two years later another child, Charles, is born in Lansing Michigan. The following is an excerpt from the Lawrence County Biographical published in 1910. The biography is on George W. Griggs who married George Warren's daughter Emma. "In 1885 he married Emma Warren who was born in Christy Township and was there reared and educated. She was the daughter of George W. Warren, a farmer of Christy Township, as well as a shoemaker and he followed the latter trade quite extensively. Mr. Warren was foreman of the shoemaking department of the Michigan Reform School for a number of years at Lansing, Mich." The death certificate of Emily states that they entered the state of Illinois in 1862 however the earliest record that can be found of George and family is the following deed for the purchase of a house in Hadley, Lawrence County, Illinois:is.
