Biography

Richard Warren was born in England.

Initially Proposed Origin

A recent first attempt in identifying the origins of passenger Richard Warren was cautiously put forward by Mayflower scholar Caleb Johnson.^[1] Caleb leaned upon the generally-accepted 14 April 1610 marriage to Elizabeth Walker at Great Amwell.^[2]  Richard's wife's family resided in Great Amwell, Hertfordshire, from about 1610 and it is reasonable to think that he, too, could have come from there.

The 2002 discovery of the 1613 will of Elizabeth Walker’s father, Augustine Walker – a will that not only names daughter Elizabeth as the wife of Richard Warren, but also names that couple’s first three daughters, Mary, Ann and Sarah, in their correct order of birth – provided the critical evidence that Elizabeth, and likely her husband, were from the region around Great Amwell.^[3] Given this strong connection to the area, there is some likelihood that Richard Warren of the Mayflower is in fact the Richard Warren christened at the Abbey at St. Albans, Hertfordshire, on 12 April 1585.^[4]  This fits reasonably well with his 1610 marriage to Elizabeth at Great Amwell (roughly a dozen miles from St. Albans), though it would appear – if he was baptized close to his actual birth – to make him slightly younger than Elizabeth, whose christening is understood to be that recorded some miles to the north at Baldock in September of 1583.^[5] That age discrepancy, which would be somewhat unusual, could perhaps undergird the earlier estimate of Anderson et al., in The Great Migration Begins (published in 1995, some years prior to the discovery of Augustine Walker’s will), that Richard was born by “about 1578 based on estimated date of marriage”.^[6]

A William Warren whose dates make him a candidate, at least, as father of the Richard Warren christened at St. Albans in 1585 is the man christened at Therfield, Hertfordshire, on 19 November 1557, son of a senior William.^[7] Therfield sits about 25 miles north of St. Albans – a significant distance for the times, but not prohibitive. He is presumably the “Gulielmu. Waren” who, aged about 27, married “Elizabetha Heade” at Therfield on 18 October 1584.^[8][9] This would fit adequately with the birth of the Richard Warren christened at St. Albans in mid-April of the year following, provided one allows for a marriage some two months into a bride’s pregnancy – not an entirely uncommon event.

Another possible Hertfordshire origin for Richard is found in the christening record of “Richarde Waren”, son of a (presumably) different William, at Rickmansworth on 12 August of 1576.^[10] This origin would yield a Richard some seven years older than Elizabeth Walker at the time of their marriage, perhaps slightly less unusual than finding a groom a bit younger than his bride. There is, however, a record of the marriage of a Richard Waren [sic] on 20 June 1602 to “Jone Sigon” at Welwyn, some fifteen miles northwest of Rickmansworth;^[11] this Richard might reasonably be suspected to be the man born at Rickmansworth, by then about age 26, close to the usual marrying age for males of that time.

Merchant of London

According to his Mayflower passenger record, Richard was a merchant from London. A recent finding, which supports this "of London" description, is from the Drapers' Company of London: on or about 14 February 1609, Richard Warren was given freedom of London; he also had his own apprentices in 1610 and 1612 [see California Mayflower Quarterly 47(4):38-39 (Fall 2023)]. It was fairly common for young men of all social classes to become freemen of London, thus becoming a resident of London and allowed to transact business on the streets of London. Typically, an apprentice could not marry, so married about a year after being given freedom, in this case of London. Richard Warren follows this pattern. As an apprentice in the Drapers' Company, Richard would have known another member of the Drapers' Company: Simon Adams, who was given freedom 22 January 1596 and who married the eldest daughter of Augustine Walker in 1599. Simon and Doratie's first child was baptized about three months after their marriage. It would appear Elizabeth copied her eldest sister and had her first child a few months after her marriage date.

Marriage

As noted above, Richard Warren married 14 Apr 1610, at Great Amwell, Hertfordshire, Elizabeth Walker, youngest daughter of Augustine Walker;^[12][13] the will of Augustine Walker also mentions the first three Warren daughters, Mary, Anna, and Sarah.^[3] Elizabeth, bap. in September 1583, died at Plymouth, 2 Oct 1673, "aged above 90 years," and apparently 90 years and one month old. ^[14][15]

Please note this is more recent than the original Great Migration Series which says he married by about 1609 Elizabeth (Unknown).^[6] It has also been suggested, but refuted by 1901, that her surname was March.^[6]

Children

Richard and Elizabeth (Walker) Warren had 7 children:^[6]

1. Mary Warren, b say July 1610, d Plymouth 27 Mar 1683; m. say 1629 to Robert Bartlett (d between 19 Sep and 29 Oct 1676, Plymouth).
2. Anna Warren, b say Oct 1611, d ; m Plymouth 19 Apr 1633 to Thomas Little
3. Sarah Warren, b say Jan 1613, d after 15 Jul 1696; m Plymouth 28 Mar 1634 to John Cooke.
4. Elizabeth Warren, b say 1615; m by 1635/6 to Richard Church.
5. Abigail Warren, b say 1618; m Plymouth 8 (or 9) Nov 1639 to Anthony Snow.
6. Nathaniel Warren, b Plymouth ca. 1624;^[16] m 19 Nov 1645 to Sarah Walker.
7. Joseph Warren, born Plymouth by 1627 in Plymouth. He married Priscilla Faunce about 1653 and had six children. He died on May 4, 1689, in Plymouth. She died on May 15, 1707, in Plymouth. ^[17]

The five daughters accompanied their mother Elizabeth to Plymouth Colony on the ship Anne in 1623. The two sons were born later.

All of Richard Warren's known children survived to adulthood, married, and also had large families. It is claimed that Warren has the largest posterity of any pilgrim, numbering 14 million, the Mayflower passenger with more descendants than any other passenger.^[18]

Financial Investor

When the Pilgrims were planning to leave Leyden, Holland, to migrate to the new world, they found that they needed to find financial investors and additional settlers. Several of the new recruits came from London, Mr. Richard Warren among them. The Mr. title implies that he was a man of either rank or wealth.^[19] He has been described as of London in the booklet Mourt's Relation, published about 1622.^[20]

Immigration

Richard Warren was one of the forty-one adult male signatories to the Mayflower Compact, composed upon the arrival of the Mayflower at Cape Cod Harbor in November 1620.^[21] He settled at Plymouth and in the 1623 division, Richard received an unknown acreage of land (probably two) for his passage aboard the Mayflower. He also received five acres for passage aboard the Anne; this was presumably for his wife and five daughters: Mary, Anna, Sarah, Elizabeth and Abigal, who arrived in 1623.^[6]

A trip across the Atlantic was difficult at best in 1620. The Mayflower had delayed leaving until late in the season, so the voyage became stormy as the weeks progressed through the fall and into the start of winter.

The Voyage of the Mayflower. The material in this link was transcribed by WikiTree contributor Allan Morton from Bradford's History. It also includes the text of the Mayflower Compact, a list of the signers (including Richard Warren) and the story of the First Encounter. Warren's name appears twelfth on the Compact.

Plymouth

Richard Warren was one of the group of Pilgrims who went ashore on December 6, 1620 (O.S.) and engaged in a "huggery" with a group of the natives, referred to as "The First Encounter". This story appears both in Mourt's Relation,^[20] published in London in 1622, and (in a condensed version) in William Bradford's Of Plymouth Plantation.

Richard Warren survived the dreadful time of sickness when about half of the one hundred and three passengers died in the extreme hardships, including near starvation, of the first couple of years of the settlement.

Richard received a grant of land in the 1623 Division of Land.^[22]

In July of the year 1623, he welcomed his wife and five daughters who arrived on the ship Anne along with sixty more people to live in the new settlement.

He seems to have been one of the five assistant governors from 1624-1628.

In 1626 twenty-seven Plymouth settlers, called Purchasers, were involved with the colony joint-stock company which afterwards was turned over to the control of senior colony members. That group was called Undertakers, and was made up of such as Bradford, Standish and Allerton initially who were later joined by Winslow, Brewster, Howland, Alden, Pence and others from London, former Merchant Adventurers. The agreement was dated October 26, 1626 and was finalized sometime in 1627. Richard Warren may have originally been a party to the agreement, but due to his death, which may have been sometime in 1628, his name on the charter was changed to that of his wife, recorded as "Elizabeth Warren, widow." Elizabeth Warren, as a widow, was named in a law passed by the Plymouth Court specifically to give her the Purchaser status that her husband had - "hee dying before he had performed the bargaine, the said Elizabeth performed the same after his decease...."

The Warren family is listed in the division of cattle, 1627.^{[14] [23]} It is believed that the list includes everyone's name residing then in Plymouth.

The Warren house, built in 1627, stood at the same location as the present house, at the head of Clifford Road, with its back to the sea. It was rebuilt about 1700 and owned by Charles Strickland (in 1976).

Richard Warren died at Plymouth in 1628^[14] leaving his wife and seven children. "This year [1628] died Mr. Richard Warren, who hath been mentioned before in this book, and was a useful instrument; and during his life bore a deep share in the difficulties and troubles of the first settlement of the plantation of New Plimouth." Nathaniel Morton, New England's Memorial (Boston : John Usher, 1669).

Richard Warren left behind a wife, remarkable in her own right, seven children who married and had descendants numbering in the millions, probably the largest number of any Mayflower Family. During her widowhood, Elizabeth Warren's name is noted in Plymouth Colony records. Elizabeth was listed as the executor of her husband's estate, paying taxes as head of household and as an independent agent in her own right.

Death and Legacy

Richard Warren died at Plymouth of unknown causes, sometime in 1628 (exact date unknown).^[6][14] It appears that Warren was in middle life at the time of his emigration from England in 1620: about 37 years old. This early age at death may indicate a difficult survival in childhood.

Richard Warren's widow Elizabeth would live to be more than ninety years of age, dying on 2 Oct 1673.^[14] Both she and her husband were buried on Burial Hill in Plymouth.

Research Notes

Son of John Warren, armorer?: It has recently been suggested in the California Mayflower Quarterly that the parents of Richard Warren were John Warren, armorer, of London and his wife Lattis/Lattice.^[24] And that he is the same as the Richard Warren baptized on 24 January 1579/80 at St. Peter's on Cornhill parish in London "son of John Warren, armorer."^[25] This has been challenged and is not accepted.^[26]

John Warren of London, armorer, had six known children, namely Jasper, John, William, Susan, Richard and Elizabeth.^[27] He was buried on 12 September 1585 aged 50 yr of the plague, and was buried in the west yard of St. Peter's.^[28] Lettis Warren, widow of John Warren, armorer, married on 19 June 1587 Lawrence Evannes, of London, cutler, son of Richard Evannes.^[29]

The primary argument made for supposing that Richard Warren of the Mayflower was the same as Richard Warren, son of John Warren the armorer, is onomastic. The standard naming pattern used often in large families in the 1500s and 1600s gave the first son his father's father's name, the second son received his father's name and the third son received his father's grandfather's name. The article argues that as Nathaniel Warren, son of Richard, named his sons Richard, Nathaniel, John, James and Jabez, that the father of Richard Warren must have been named John. The use of the names Richard and Nathaniel indicates to the onomastic fan that the name John is significant. This argument is hard to follow and does not make sense, according to some readers of the recent article. Thus, the objection by some is that the third-born son of a grandchild given a name as common as John in no way indicates that the grandfather must have been named John. Yes, it would have been more interesting, and the onomastic arguement believeable, if any grandchild had been named Lettice, but no such unusual name exists in the Warren descendants. The common names of John and Richard cannot help us identify the origins of the immigrant, say some. It is also noted that Richard Warren was called as being "of London" in Mourt's Relation, supposing that this strengthens the argument that this is the correct Richard Warren. However, a merchant living in London in 1620 could literally have come from anywhere in England and this does not help us identify Richard Warren of the Mayflower as being the son of the armorer. Finally, a sword hilt unearthed in 1898 was identified in May 1982 in an article by Anthony D. Darling, an expert on early English swords. Darling said this in his article: "attributing ownership of the sword to Richard Warren would be highly speculative, and to do so would be on the strength of inferential reasoning"^[30] Even if it were proved to be Richard Warren's sword (which it has not been), it still does not prove that John was his father.

This sword hilt was dated some 40 years ago by Darling to about 1600. This hilt is now supposed (without any reliable sourcing linking them) to indicate a link between Richard Warren and the cutler Lawrence Evans who was a warden of the Cutler's Guild about 1610 and had been step-father to Richard since 1587. As Darling pointed out, there were two swords listed in Plymouth Colony probate records for Richard and his two swords were apparently passed down to his two sons, as seen in their probate records. This evidence from probate records was summarized by Darling in his article, "A rare English Sword from Plymouth Colony" in the Canadian publication "Arms Collecting" 20(2):42-56 (electronic copy with a picture of this hilt is available from the librarian at Historic Deerfield Library, Deerfield, Massachusetts). Again, this train of suppositions is not deemed plausible by some. Recent y-DNA research in 2022 has found Richard Warren belongs in the Haplogroup E-M35. This rare haplogroup thus separates him from the usually expected haplogroups [R and I] found in England and indicates Richard Warren cannot descend from Robert of Nayland, England or any of the other ancestors linked to other men's test results on a major y-DNA database for Warren descendants. Some say there is no evidence provided in the form of wills, letters, land records, baptisms, etc. which even suggest that the identification of Richard Warren is correct. Very recent ethnicity reports for a person with three lineages to Richard Warren indicates he descended from Ashkenazi Jews stemming from western Europe. Furthermore, the Richard Warren who died in London in 1624 is linked to a son Luke and then back to Robert Warren of Nayland, Hertfordshire, on one major website. Given the numerous John, Richard and George Warrens, there is need for DNA testing before trying to link Richard Warren of the Mayflower to any long-established English family using only church records,

According to some, the final proof that the Mayflower passenger could not be the son of the armorer is that the armorer's son died in 1624. Richard Warren, cutler, of Grace Street parish (St. Bennet Gracechurch) was buried on 16 November 1624 at St. Peter's. It is presumed by some researchers that this is the Richard Warren, son of John Warren armorer, who was raised by his father-in-law Lawrence Evans, cutler.^[31] Additional research on a probable uncle of the Mayflower man is expected to show the Richard who died in London in 1624 was a cousin of the Richard who died in Plymouth Colony in 1628. Another criticism is that the article does not address the missing baptisms of Richard Warren's five daughters born in England (none named Lettice), or the fact there were at least 6 Richard Warrens born in London alone who could have been the Mayflower passenger, two of them being a father and son pair.

As for the argument that passengers on the Mayflower did not follow the family naming patterns common in England in the 1500s and 1600s--examine the large families of the daughters of Richard Warren, the passenger. A clear example of a naming pattern is in the naming of daughter Sarah's daughters: Sarah [named for her mother], Elizabeth [named for her mother's mother]. Hester [named for father's mother], Mary, and Mercy. As Richard Warren, the passenger, had 5 granddaughters named Mercy, could it be that as 3 were either first or last-born, that these girls were delivered safely at birth through divine mercy???

Error: Incorrect LNAB of wife: The Warren Genealogy in 1854 identified the wife of Richard Warren as Elizabeth (Juett) Marsh.^[32] This is incorrect. This was an attempt to identify Richard Warren with a Richard Warren found in the Visitations of Devon.^[33] A Richard Warren did marry an Elizabeth Marsh, widow; however, she was only 14 years old when this Richard Warren died.^[34][35] As noted above, his wife has recently been identified as Elizabeth Walker, daughter of Augustine Walker.

Further Research in Essex with Connection to London: The most recent attempt to identify the parents of Richard Warren finds him bap. 22 Sept. 1583 St. Mary the Virgin Parish, Newport, Essex, England ["Richard Warren, and some 50 years of research" by Louise Walsh Throop, California Mayflower Quarterly 47(2):37-39]. His father was another Richard Warren, bap. 18 Feb. 1564/5 St. James Church, Little Clacton, Essex, England [perhaps significantly, no father was named, in a period when no mothers were listed]. This elder Richard married 23 Sept. 1582 Joha[ne?] Hadsley. They apparently had just two children in Newport and the second child died young. Joha remarried 25 Nov. 1600 in Debden, Essex to William King. This William King was buried 1602 in Harwich, Essex with a very uncommon and unusual comment: "A maryner dwelling about London, which came out of the east country." Note: the master of the Mayflower in 1602 was still a resident of Harwich.

There is a landed family, in western Essex in the 1500s and before, which carries the same rare y-DNA grouping as two tested descendants of Richard Warren, the Mayflower passenger: E-M35. It is possible that Richard's father of the same name was an illegitimate son of someone from this landed family, thus accounting for the missing father in the 1565 baptismal record---and also possibly accounting for the ability of the Mayflower passenger to provide financial backing to the trans-Atlantic adventure in 1620 as well as the usual fare for the passage. Descent from this landed family would also account for the title "Mr." being used in written references to Richard Warren, the passenger, during his lifetime.

Richard would have paid for seven persons in his family party, embarking from London, and which would have required a payment of 70 pounds---a considerable amount in 1620! More research may not yield any documentation of this proposed link of a grandson to a landed Essex family. But the money trail might be illuminating. A landed family would have had funds to invest in this wild adventure in 1620. The head of the More family paid for the passage of four children plus another 60 pounds as a financial investment and possibly for supplies for the trip---for a total of 100 pounds. Richard Warren's ancestral family of Kelvedon, Essex could have supported his voyage with a similar amount expended and with a similar motive: to get this inconvenient relative and his large family far away in a distant, dangerous environment.

Note: distance between Newport, Essex and Great Amwell, Hertfordshire is ca 25 miles; distance between Newport, Essex and Kelvedon Hatch, Essex is ca 28 miles; and distance between Great Amwell, Hertsfordshire and Kelvedon Hatch, Essex is ca 19 miles.

With their passage already paid for, Richard Warren's wife and five daughters--who were apparently "left behind" in the final busy days involving the transfer of William Brewster's party of four and others to the Mayflower---would have been high on the list of passengers for the following ship. The Warren family thus were passengers on the unfortunate Paragon in 1622 and later on the Anne in 1623. Their successful trip was only 400 years ago!

Also note: the computer at FamilyTreeDNA seems to match testers with a y-DNA111 test and give an automatic mismatch if 10 or more of the 111 are not the same. This test is usually considered to be accurate for about 7 or 8 generations. The proposed landed Essex family would be about 16 generations back. It may be the 19 number mismatch between the 14 generations back to Richard Warren, passenger, and the Kelveden, Essex, family back about 16 generations is statistically significant as the mismatched test numbers are below 20.
