128. * Hugh WARREN ^(25)(217) was born in 1723 in Spotsylvania County, VA. He died after 1800 in Green County, KY. Hugh sold land to Thomas Warren. The land was located on the west side of the Pacelet river, Cravan County, South Carolina. This land was granted to hom in 1768, at which time he moved his family from Virginia to South Carolina. Documented on 16 February 1787. His wife Sarah agreed to the sale. This is the only mention of his wife that has been uncovered to date.
Hugh live in this area for at least 20 years, for on 23 January 1773, listed in the book "North Carolina Land Grants in South Carolina", Hugh was granted 100 arces on both sides of Buck Creek of Pacelot, 96th District, South Carolina. The Thomas Warren that bought the land from Hugh in 1787 was the son of Hackely Warren. This land was located near Wofford's Iron Works and the Pacelot river in what is currently Cheater County, South Carolina, but was at the time in the 96 th district, Spartanburg, South Carolina.
Keep in mind that Hugh was noted in a book "Gone to Georgia" as having some relatives in Georgia. The book did not elabroate to where in Georgia, this Warren famly was located. Also a Joseph was on most all deeds with the Thomas Warren that is found surveying roads in December of 1785. This Thomas would have known Hugh, and most likely have kin in Georgia. Joseph is from Hackley Warren's family, as is Thomas Hackley. Lott Warren, also of this family went to Georgia.
He served in the military in Volunteer, Revolutionary War.. Volunteered for Militia Duty during the Revolutionary War. He served on Horseback for the South Carolina troops. Believed they moved to South Carolina when William was still a small boy. Sometime before the Revolutionary War, the family moved to District 96, Greenville County, South Carolina, and settled there. Apparently their occupation was farming, but they may have developed other trades as well. Hugh volunteered for militia duty in the South Carolina troops. He rendered his services on horseback. He received South Carolina Indention's for militia duty in 1783, showing his earnings as the principal of 23£..11..5 (23 pounds in English monetary means) with additional interest of 1£..12..11. In 1776, his son William substituted for him when Hugh was recalled but unable to serve. Hugh's service records were certified by a Captain Parsons as being from February 1, 1783 to July 15, 1783. Captain Parsons who lived in Tennessee after the war. After the war, the family stayed in South Carolina until 1796. They either sold or handed sown their land to family members that remained.
