• He married Elizabeth Walker, daughter of Augustine Walker, at Great Amwell, Hertfordshire, England, on 14 April 1610.⁴
• Richard Warren died in 1628 at Plymouth.
• Richard Warren was a Mayflower Passenger in 1620.⁵
• Richard Warren came to Plymouth Colony after joining the Pilgrims in London. He was one of the signers of the Mayflower Compact, 11 Nov 1620. He was a member of the third exploring party which was suprised by the Native Americans on 18 Dec 1620, at the spot which became known as "The First Encounter."
• The English origins and ancestry of Richard Warren have, over time, been the subject of much speculation with many different possibilities finding their way to publication, none of them generally accepted. In Dec 2002, Edward Davies ("The Marriage of Richard Warren of the Mayflower" The American Genealogist 78:81-86, Apr 2003) made a breakthrough in identifying Richard's wife Elizabeth as Elizabeth Walker, daughter of Augustine Walker, and in discovering their marriage in Great Amwell, Hertfordshire. However, nothing further has yet to be found. Very little is also known of Richard Warren's live in the new colony. He came alone on the Mayflower with his wife and daughters joining him in 1623, crossing the Atlantic on the Ann. Sons Nathaniel and Joseph were born at Plymouth. Richard Warren received property in the land division of 1623 and the family shared in the division of cattle in 1627, and he died the following year. The only record of his death being found in Nathaniel Morton's 1669 book New England's Memorial, in which he writes: "This year [1628] died Mr. Richard Warren, who was an useful instrument and during his life bare a deep share in the difficulties and troubles of the first settlement of the Plantation of New Plymouth." All of his children survived to adulthood and themselves had large families. This makes Richard Warren one of the most common Mayflower Pilgrims to have present day descendants. Among his descendants are Civil War General and U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant, U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Alan B. Shepard the first American in space and fifth person to walk upon the moon.⁶
