Notes For HENRY WARREN:

THERE IS A QUESTION THAT THE FAMILY MAY HAVE ORIGINATED IN MECKLINBURG CO VA,& LATER MOVED TO NORTH CAROLINA ,POSSIBLY STOKES COUNTY. JUST WHEN THE WARRENS MOVED TO LINCOLN COUNTY TN IS NOT KNOWN. IT IS FELT THAT THEY WERE THERE BEFORE 1800.

THERE ARE 2 SETS OF WARRENS OR MORE ?? THERE WAS JOHN WARREN & HIS WIFE ?? COURTNEY LEWIS, & HENRY WARREN & HIS WIFE ??. CHARITY ETHRIDGE. IN JOHN WARREN'S WILL HE NAMED HENRY & WILLIS WARREN (BROTHERS ) AS ADMINISTRATORS OF HIS WILL

. GEORGE WASHINGTON WARREN, MY FATHER'S FATHER,DESCENDED FROM THE JOHN WARREN SIDE. MISS HELEN, DAD'S MOTHER, DECENDED FROM THE HENRY WARREN SIDE.

AS A CHILD I HEARD MISS HELEN SPEAK OF ''CHARITY '' AS BEING IN HER ANCESTORAL PAST. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET ANY SPECIFIC HISTORY PAST JOHN & HENRY. MUCH MORE IS DOCUMENTED ABOUT THE HENRY WARREN SIDE

. JOHN WAS SHOT BY A MAN BY THE NAME OF CHAPMAN . HE KNEW THAT HE WAS GOING T0 DIE, SO HE WROTE HIS LAST WILL & TESTAMENT INSTRUCTING HENRY WARREN ( A BROTHER ) TO SEE TO THE TAKING CARE OF CHAPMAN. HE ENDENTURED HIS CHILDREN TO VARIOUS PEOPLE. JOHN BRIGHT, THEN AGE 8, WAS ENDENTURED TO SAM HOLDEN ,A CABINET MAKER IN HOWELL TN, UNTIL THE AGE OF 21. WHEN HE REACHED THE AGE OF 21 HIS ENDENTURER WAS TO PROVIDE HIM WITH A BRIDE , A SADDLE , AND A NEW SUIT.
