Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous message and who so willingly shared your research with me. I realized after I sent my message that there were several Reuben WARRENs in Itawamba County. The one I was asking about is the following: Reuben WARREN, Sr. b. abt. 1760-1765 in VA d. 1850, north of Fulton, Itawamba County, MS md. 1) Betsey PRESTON, 1790, Lincoln County, KY md. 2) Margaret "Margery" HANCOCK, 1811, Wayne County, KY They had about 12 children. One was Abel S. WARREN. I understand he was a probate judge in Itawamba County. Reuben WARREN was supposedly an older brother of S. John WARREN's, who was the father of Charles WARREN, the first sheriff of Itawamba County. Has any genealogical research been done on Charles WARREN? If so, could someone point me in the right direction so I could obtain a copy of it? Thanks again! Jane
