History

Ephraim Quinby founded Warren in 1798, on 441 acres (1.78 km²) of land that he purchased from the Connecticut Land Company, as part of the Connecticut Western Reserve. Quinby named the town for the town's surveyor, Moses Warren. The town was the county seat of the Western Reserve, then became the Trumbull County seat in 1801.[6]

In 1833, Warren contained county buildings, two printing offices, a bank, five mercantile stores, and about 600 inhabitants.[7]

Warren had a population of nearly 1,600 people in 1846. In that same year, the town had five churches, twenty stores, three newspaper offices, one bank, one wool factory and two flourmills.^{[citation needed]} In June 1846, a fire destroyed several buildings on one side of the town square, but residents soon replaced them with new stores and other businesses.^{[citation needed]} Warren became an important center of trade for farmers living in the surrounding countryside during this period. Songwriter Stephen Foster, his wife Jane McDowell, and their daughter Marion lived briefly in Warren.^{[citation needed]}

During the latter decades of the nineteenth century and throughout the twentieth century, Warren remained an important trading and manufacturing center. By 1888, four railroads connected the community with other parts of Ohio. In that same year, there were five newspaper offices, seven churches, three banks and numerous manufacturing firms in Warren. The businesses manufactured a wide variety of products including linseed oil, furniture, barrel staves, wool fabric, blinds, incandescent bulbs, automobiles[8] and carriages. Warren was the first town in the US to have an electric street illumination, provided by the Packard Electric Company, founded in 1890 in Warren.[8] Warren's population was 5,973 people in 1890. Construction began on the Trumbull County Courthouse in downtown Warren on Thanksgiving Day, 1895.[9]

Warren continued to grow in the twentieth century. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, steel production was a major industry in the county because of large deposits of coal and iron ore in surrounding counties. In recent years, many Warren residents have worked in local service and retail sales businesses. In 2000, Warren was Trumbull County's most populated community, with 46,832 residents. Many examples of late 19th and early 20th century architectural styles still stand in downtown Warren, including the Trumbull County Courthouse, which contains one of the largest courtrooms in the state of Ohio, and the Trumbull County Carnegie Law Library; in addition to office buildings, banks, stores, and homes surrounding the Courthouse Square area.[10]

John Ashbery mentions Warren in his poem 'Pyrography', first published in an exhibition catalogue in 1976 and included in his 1977 collection Houseboat Days.[11] In a later interview, Ashbery said he had never visited the town.[12]

Government

This section does not cite any sources. (October 2021)

The current form of government is a Mayor-Council system. William "Doug" Franklin is the incumbent Mayor and has been since November 2011. His term expires on January 1st, 2024.

Opponents of the Mayor-Council system, especially Councilman Kenneth Macpherson, have pushed the idea of a Charter system of Government. They argue that this would allow the citizens of Warren to have a bigger say in the governance of the city. Opponents say that this would decrease productivity within the City Government.
