Hi,

This is probably a long shot, but I am curious about this John Warren and
the German school. We have a Mary Warren (spelled Warnt in her marriage
record) who was married in Monroeville, Huron County, on 4 Feb 1867 to John
Huther/Heater/Heeter/Heiter, son of Joannes Jacobus Huther and Elisabetha
Orphey. Mary was born about 1843, with her place of birth given as either
Germany or England. We have not yet been able to determine her parents, and
it was always curious that England was listed as a place of birth. Mary died
1870-1874, probably in Huron or Erie County. She and John had three
children: Jacob Nicholas, Mary Elizabeth and John. John moved to Missouri
after the 1880 census.

Regards,
Marjean Workman

Wow! This came out of nowhere. I had almost dropped off the OHHURON list
because John Warren was my only link to the area, (his sons moved off to
Michigan), and I never thought I'd see the name.

Do you have any information on John warren at all? I'm surprised there was
a German school in his house though, as he was English... in a line of
Blacksmith's hailing from Devonshire, England. Anyway, I'll dig out my old
records if there is anything you might find helpful. If you could enlighten
me as to anything you know about him, please let me know!

Thanks,

Chad Warren
