The Warren family was located in Wales, Scotland, Ireland, West Indies, Australia, Japan, Holland and United States. Richard and Elizabeth Warren had five daughters born in England and two sons born in New England. Richard arrived on the Mayflower in 1620 to Plymouth, Massachusetts and his wife and family joined him in 1623. Other Warren individuals and families immigrated to Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Alabama and elsewhere. Most of the genealogical data and family history in this volume covers the ancestry and descendants in England, Ireland, France and elsewhere, with some in Scotland, Wales and elsewhere.
The financial impact of war in the eighteenth century upon the corps of naval officers has not been systematically studied. Nor have the opportunities of a naval career to exploit such sidelines as trade, money-lending, and land purchases in the colonies, where officers spent much of their time, been looked at carefully. The present study analyses in detail the fortune of a single naval officer, Admiral Sir Peter Warren, whose principal wealth came from prize money: the capture of enemy vessels in wartime. He emerges as a new type of entrepreneur, with his feet well planted on both sides of the Atlantic, equally at home in the financial circles of New York, Boston, Charleston, Dublin, and London. Owing to the mobility of his naval career he became familiar with the economic prospects in these scattered places, while he possessed the necessary imagination to take advantage of their commercial opportunities. Mobility also enabled him to select personally the agents who served his varied interests. Neither his widow nor his heirs had the same advantages, nor did they possess the same degree of business sense, with the result that his fortune, invested internationally, was eventually repatriated to England.
