Warren, Washington County, Vermont

This township lies in latitude 44°, 6'; longitude 40°, 11', in the south-west of Washington County. The town formerly belonged to Addison County, and was annexed to Washington County, by an act of the Legislature, October 28, 1829. The charter was granted November 9, 1780, to John Throop and associates.

The lots were drawn by 70 slips numbered from 1 to 70, put into a hat, with 70 other slips with the names of one of the grantees, or of a public right, to be drawn, on each, put into another hat, and both hats shook to the satisfaction of all present, when a paper was first drawn from the hat with names, and then a paper from the hat with the number of the lots. The town is bounded north by Waitsfield and Fayston, east by Roxbury, south by Granville, Addison County, and by Lincoln, Addison County. By act of Legislature, 1824, four tiers of lots were set off from Lincoln to Warren. There were two divisions of land in town of 70 lots each.
