John Warren

• Not the same as John “R.” Warren
• Susan Markham was not the wife of Thomas Warren, Gent.. "Susan the relict of Robert Greenleafe" married Thomas Markham on 11 July 1636. On 11 July 1637 there is a reference to Susan Markham, relict of Robert Greenleafe.

Notes

Among early colonial families it was customary to name the first born son after the father and the second born son after the paternal grandfather. If this rule of thumb was followed in the James Warren family, then James father was John Warren. A john Warren was in Charles City County, in Westover Parish where the Christian family lived, in June 1690. Mr. John Taylor sues him for "breach of trust". This John Warren may well have been James father. An Elizabeth Warren also was in Westover Parish in April 1694.

James Warren and son John were most likely descended from the Thomas Warren who settled in Charles City County circa 1635. Thomas Warren reputedly was the brother of William Warren who came to Charles River County (now York) around 1630. These brothers have been identified by others as sons of Sir Edward Warren of Poynton Manor, Stockport, County Cheshire, near Chester, England. Per Dr. Holland Warren

Origins

(Note: wife has since been disproved)

Thomas Warren was bom May 25, 1604 at Poynton, Stockport, Cheshire, England. He removed to Virginia and married Susan Greenleaf (her previous married name) Susan came to America in 1620 aboard the Jonathon with her two children, Thomas, age three years, and Ann, age 22 weeks.. She was 23 years old. Thomas and Susan were married in 1634. In 1635 he patemed 300 acres of land in Charles City county, Va,. Part was in right of Susan Greenleaf , part in the name of Robert Greenleaf her former husband, and the remainder in Thomas' name for his personal adventure and transportation to Virginia of two persons, John Folke and Ruth Whitfield. Thomas and Susan had three sons- John, born in 1640, Richard born in 1641 and Thomas born in 1644, Thomas and Richard removed to the Isle of Kent, Maryland ( I think it may have been Virginia in those days, for Ratcliff was in the Army of Virginia and was on Kent Island). John remained in Old Rappahannock county, Va., now known as Essex, Thomas Sr. died December 20, 1677 in Sandbach, Cheshire, England and is buried at Prestbury.
