Notes |
- There is a family search record claiming Hugh Warren was born
on 11 August 1709 in Queen Anne Parish, Prince George
County, Maryland. (Have not been able to find this source
info, but believe it is the baptism record note just below this
entry, from Chelsea, England.

This coincides with the plausible narrative that the Hugh Warren, born 1709
in England is the same Hugh Warren of Prince Georges County, Maryland
who died in Frederick County, Virginia between 1745-1747. The Chelsea
(Poynton) England Warrens are known to have carried the DNA haplogroup
I-253 marker.
DNA testing of our Warren family has shown our Warren branch to be a close
match to the Humphrey Warren family (I-253 Haplogroup).
With that said; another note of concern is how the name was spelled in Maryland genealogical records.
Hugh's surname was spelled both as as Waring and Warren. The occasional Waring spelling continues
in both Virginia and South Carolina records.
Prince Georges county, was created from both Charles and Calvert Counties of Maryland in 1696.
Previous to the creation of Prince Georges County; between 1635-1695; the land along the Patuxent
River was considered Calvert County and the land along the Potomac River was considered
Charles County. Saint Mary's County was down river, at the mouth of the Potomac, where Maryland
settlement began in 1634.
Hugh Warren was associated with families located on the West side of the Patuxent River,
which included Calvert, Prince George's, and St. Mary's Counties of Maryland.
Prince George County was considered the Western frontier of Maryland and extended to the
Pennsylvania border until further counties were created in 1748.
We know that Hugh Warren was in Prince Georges County Maryland until at least June of 1732
by the following 2 recorded entries:
Entry 1: Santelo Dyer (Dier) left a will that was written 10 April 1732 in Prince Georges
County, Maryland. It was probated on 28 June 1732. The appraisers were Thomas Hilleary
and Thomas Williams. Creditors were listed as John Child and John Hodskon. There were
no Next of Kin "In Maryland" noted. The administrator and Executor of this will was Hugh
Waring.

to his hands possession or knowledge sworn before.
No relations to said deceased in Maryland
Santelo Dyer had married Margaret Ryley on 7 Nov 1723 in Queen Annes Parish,
Prince Georges County, Maryland. Since he left no heirs; it is assumed that
Margaret had died before himself.
Note: Hugh Warren was related to this family to be executor of the Santelo Dyer will.
What has been ascertained is that Lydia Ryley married Thomas Swearingen. Thomas
and Lydia had several children; and one of these children; Margaret Swearingen
married Hugh Warren. Lydia Ryley was the sister of Samuel Ryley. Samuel Ryley
had a daughter named Margaret Ryley who married Santelo Dyer. These Dyer and
Swearingen families were on the move to Virginia and elsewhere; leaving only
Hugh Warren, who had married into this family to execute the will of Santelo Dyer.
Entry 2: Queen Anne Parish, Prince Georges County, Maryland (Film 013,206)
Richard son of Hugh Warren and Margaret his wife was born ye 6th of August 1732.
By 1745 Hugh Warren and wife Margaret had moved to Frederick County,Virginia as
evidenced by the following entries found in Frederick County, Virginia Order books 1-5.
Book 1:
Frederick County, Virginia Order book 1 (1742-1745), page 341 John Hite and Jacob Hite listed as assignees of Jost Hite vs Hugh Warren on petition. Suit Dismissed.

involved with the widow of Hugh Warren; Margaret Warren]
9 October 1747 - page 340 - Thomas Chester vs Margaret Warren - Thomas Chester by
and ___ ordered that Margaret Warren be ordered to appear and to show cause why her

land owner in Frederick County; I believe initially over 5,000 acres)
30 October 1747 - page 345 - Order of Margaret Warren to give security Margaret Warren
having been summoned according to an order of law to show cause why her children should
not be bound out according to law appeared and the allegation of Thomas Chester against
said Margaret being heard. This thereupon ordered that the said Margaret give bond with
good & sufficient security to the church wardens of Frederick parish for the bringing up
her children in a christian like manner and on failure of her giving such security that the
church wardens bind out the said Margarets children as the law directs.

Book 3: 23 August 1750 - Page 354 - In Ejectment, this suit is ordered continued till the
next court at the ___ cost
15 May 1751 - Page 433 - We present Thomas Buck and Margaret Warren both of this

Foreman which verdict on the defendent motion is admitted to the record and thereupon
it is considered by the court the the said defendent recover against the plaintiff her costs

7 June 1753 - Page 42 Charles Buck having made oath that he attended thirty four days as
an evidence for Margaret Warren in the suit on ejectment brought by Thomas Chester
against her. On his motion is ordered that Margaret Warren pay him eight hundered
& fifty pounds of tobacco for the same according to law.
A few items to note about these entries: It appears that Margaret Warren and her children
continued to work land as tobacco farmers in Frederick County, Virginia after the early
death of the elder Hugh Warren. The eldest 3 children would have been able to help
keep the farm operating in the early years. My own Warren lineage (Hugh-ca1712 ,
Hugh-1731, Hugh-1764, Avery-1791, Felix-1820 carried the trade of tobacco farming
to the 96th district of South Carolina and later to Green and Taylor counties in Kentucky.
Of interest to this researcher is the Barton family living in Prince George's County; and
the mention of a John Warren. William Barton lived in a area on the West side of the
Paxtuxent River, formely Calvert County. This is the general area that Hugh Warren
and wife Margaret lived. John was named in the will of his uncle WILLIAM BARTON
in 1704/5, but not named in his father's will written in 1708.
- (Research):Hugh Warren's first born appears to be Richard Warren. The earliest known
immigrant tied back to VA or MD colonies is Richard Warren of Northampton
County, VA in about 1655. There may be a connection back to a Richard Warren
of New Haven, Connecticut; with known migration from New Haven, CT to
Northampton, VA. Also some immigrants have been traced from Northampton, VA
to Saint Mary's MD.
Thomas Greenfield1649,1650,1651, born 1648 in Carleton, Gelding Parish, Nottingham, England1652; died September 08, 1715 in Prince George, MD1652. He was the son of 452. Robert Greenfield and 453. Anne Bailey. He married 227. Martha Trueman Bet. 1674 - 1675 in Calvert Co., MD1652.
Martha Trueman1653,1654, born Abt. 1660 in Nottinghamshire,England1655,1656; died February 20, 1736/37 in Prince George's, MD (cremated)1657,1658. She was the daughter of 454. James Truman and 455. Anne Storer.
Possible Warrens (Warings) that were of Queen Ann Parish during the
timeframe when Hugh Warren was living there.
A Thomas Waring (b 1710, Calvert Co. MD) was in Prince George's County,
Maryland in 1742 when there were discussions of seating for Pews in Queen Ann
Parish. Thomas was the son of Basil Waring (b 1683 in Calvert Co., MD)
Basil Waring Jr. was the son of Basil Waring Sr (b 1650, Calvert Co., MD
Basil Waring Sr. was the son of Sampson Waring (b July 1616 in Shropshire,
England). Basil Waring Jr. died 1733 in Prince George's County, Md.
Samuel Warren, late of Prince George's County; otherwise called Samuel Warren
of Calvert County, Maryland. (Court Records between 1696-1699)
Samuel Warren, June 1693 in case of trespass John Fry against Samuel Warren.
Samuel Warren Sr and Samuel Warren Jr, planters of Prince George's County
To: William Cooke, planter of Prince George's Co for 2000 lbs. tobacco, a
parcel of land on the west side of the Patuxent River formerly in Calvert Co
sold by John Merth and Gissill, his wife, to Michael Farmer and lately recovered
by the lessee of Samuel Warrin in the provincial court from EDWARD TRUMAN;
in records of Calvert Co Court
/s/ Samuel Warren , Sr (mark and seal) Samuel Warren Jr (mark and seal)
Wit: Leonard Holyday, D. Dulany, Philip Lee, Jos. Belt
Deed acknowledged according to Act of Assembly; enrolled 9 Mar 1718
I believe this to be a separate family then the Basil Waring family, as both
Samuel Warren Jr. and Sr. are named. Samuel Waring of the Basil lineage
was born 1721 in Queen Anne's Parish, Prince Georges, Co., MD; after
the above record was entered.
Samuel Warren mentioned in the Will of Owen Ellis on 14 Aug 1745 in Prince
Georges's County, Maryland.
Jonathan Ellis mentioned in Samuel Warren's will on 27 Aug 1745 in Prince
George's County, Maryland. Named wife Rose, son Samuel, daughter
Elizabeth.
Hugh Warren was the executor of the will of Santelo Dyer. Santelo Dyer was
married to a Margaret Ryley, daughter of Samuel Ryley. Samuel Warren was
also living in this timeframe. Samuel Ryley was the son of Hugh Ryley.
Possible Clue to tracking Hugh Warren.
I believe there are many more records to pour over that may give
us some clues with regard to parentage of Hugh Warren and
related families. The path is appearing to be from Charles Co.,
to Calvert Co., to Prince George's Co., and on to Virginia.
Revisiting where we are in Prince George's County Maryland with
the various Warren families; kind of a synopsis where we are so
Far.
Hugh Warren was proven to be of Prince George's county by
Records in 1732. Hugh was familiar and associated with families
that were of Calvert, St. Mary's, and Charles counties.
We also know that Calvert County is where at least Samuel
Warren Sr. once lived based on land records in PG Co.
I found a few more land records that indicate more than just
Samuel Warren in Calvert county. I have included a few more
Record excerpts to examine. I am thinking that the Charles Co,
MD Warrens had ventured into Calvert County, hence these
families may be of the Charles Co., MD Lineage. A John Warren
keeps popping up as a clerk of Calvert County, MD. This John
Warren appears in some entries with the Barton family.
Also in one Samuel Warren record; Charles Town is mentioned.
Samuel weighed tobacco at this location. We also find John
Warren as a Calvert County, MD clerk mentioning land sales
There. Also a Henry Warren is mentioned in these PG CO,
MD land records that refer to Calvert Co, MD.
So now we have a John, Henry, and Samuel all mentioned
In PG Co. MD records; with some ties back to Calvert Co.
MD; associated with families of Charles Co. MD.
