Powderhorn Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I bet dollars to donuts that Warren was named for General Joseph Warren, MD, killed in action at Bunker Hill. You may also note the Pine Tree in the canton of the flag of the Continental Army. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
