excerpt of his Obit;
Warren attended school until he was 21 years old, and then began farming for
himself. When he was about 25 years old he sold his farm and went into the
lumber business on the Allegany river, which he followed until 1860. On the
breaking out of the war of the rebellion, he raised a company of 104 men,
going with them to Washington. He was appointed second lieutenant, his
regiment being part of the Eleventh corps. He was later detailed as
brigadier quartermaster for the second division of the corps., then to chief
of ambulance and quartermaster of the second division; later on as
quartermaster and commissary of the Twentieth corps hospital, which gave him
the rank of colonel, which position he held until the close of the war. He
was wounded while in Georgia, and had a severe attack of typhoid fever. He
was in the battles of Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Ringold, Dalton, Kenesaw
Mountain, and the battles fought enroute to Atlanta with Sherman in his
march to the sea.
After the war he came to Allegany and engaged in the oil business some three
years; he was associate county judge for four years, justice of the peace 12
years, coroner six years, besides many local offices, serving as postmaster
for 10 years.
In June, 1879, he went to Minnesota as agent for the New York Mills Land
Co., settling at Moorhead. He took up a soldiers' homestead in Ransom Co.,
N. D., which he improved. He did a general land business for the Northern
Pacific Railway Co., was city justice of Moorhead for four years, and
generally interested in the history and growth of the city. In 1842 he was
married to Miss Margaret Austin, a native of Scotland, who died a few years ago.
