General James Warren and Mercy Otis Warren

When I was in Plymouth a week or so back I ran into a family looking for the grave of their Mayflower ancestor, Richard Warren. I let them know that he didn’t have a marked grave, but that there was a Warren family tomb where he is thought to be buried. They had already seen the tomb, and asked about the Warren family lot with the portrait—Gen. James Warren. I told them about him and Mercy Otis Warren, and their kids (both girls) especially were super excited to learn that their cousins had been very involved in the Revolutionary War and one was a famous writer.
