The only question to me is that we had generally considered Msgr Henry E.
Mattingly's book, The Mattingly Family in Early America, the proof thereof
[in which he states that the information is taken from the Will. The
finding
of the actual Will without such proof may raise a question for some;
however,
there seems to be collateral documentation to confirm Edward and Leonard as
grandchildren of Thomas Warren.

If there is collateral documentation (administrative accounts, etc...) to
confirm that Edward and Leonard were grandchildren of Thomas Warren then
that leaves us with much bigger problems. Because if Elizabeth Warren was,
in fact, married to Thomas III, then the fact that she is named as
Elizabeth Hyatt in her father's will of 1744 would have to mean that Thomas
had died and she had remarried. Otherwise she would have been named as
Elizabeth Mattingly in his will.

If anyone has any collateral documenation to clear up this mess, I'd love
to see it. I'm going to start researching the administrative accounts to
see if there were any for Thomas Warren. I don't have a copy of Louise
Donnelly's book but I'd love to see what's in it regarding Thomas Warren.
