Notes	WARREN FAMILY. John Warren (I), was an emigrant ancestor of George Farnum Hewett, of Worcester, through his mother's mother's line. John Warren came to America in 1630 at the age of forty- five. He was born in England, therefore, in 1585. He settled in Watertown, Massachusetts, where he was made freeman May 18, 1631. In 1635 he and Abraham Browne were appointed to lay out highways and see that they were repaired. His home- stall of twelve acres, drawn 1642, was bounded by the homestalls of William Hammond, John Biscoe and Isaac Sterne, and he had seven other lots, amounting in all to one hundred and seventy-six acres. He sympathized with the Quakers, and was at odds with the Puritan church. In October, 1651, he and Thomas Arnold were fined for an offense against the laws concerning baptism. He was warned March 14, 1658-9, for not attending church, and later fined for neglecting to go to church fourteen Sabbaths, at the rate of twenty shillings each. May 27, 1661, his house was searched for Quakers. His neighbor Hammond was also suspected of harboring the persecuted Quakers. His wife Margaret died November 6. 1662. He died December 13, 1667, aged eighty-two. His will, dated November 30, 1667, was proved December 17, 1667. His children, all born in England, were: 1. John, see forward. 2. Mary, born in England; married, October 30, 1642, John Bigelow. 3. Daniel, born 1628, took the oath of fidelity, 1652. 4. Elizabeth, married about 1654, James Knapp.
