The following work is one of very humble pretensions. Its primary object was the history of the town of Warren; but this, in its earlier stages, was found so blended with that of the neighboring places, that it was thought best to include a cursory account of their settlement, progress, and condition; down to the time of their incorporation. The form of annals has been chosen as best calculated to give a panoramic picture of the successive and contemporaneous steps by which the settlements advanced, and affairs moved on, toward their present condition; but this, more particularly in the latter portion of the work, has been freely departed from whenever the connexion of events, and the convenience of closing a subject, seemed to require.
In the prosecution of the work, the author has availed himself of the records and archives of the town, county, State, and United States; many printed books and pamphlets, early or recent, obscure or otherwise; some private journals and other papers of the early settlers; together with a large stock of traditionary information, collected many years ago from aged persons now no more, as well as from many still living.
