Seek information on my 2nd great grandfather, Thomas Jefferson Warren who resided in Prarie Twp. Kosciusko Co. at the time of his enlistment in the 129th regiment during the Civil War in 1864. He was born in Huron Co. Ohio in 1849, and the name of his parents may have been Richard and Philena Warren. I do not know if Richard and his wife were ever residents of Kosciusko Co., but is seems likely since Thomas was only 15 years of age at his enlistment. Would like to hear from any Warren Researchers with family ties in Kosciusko Co., and possible connections to Ohio.
