Dr. David B. Warren, having pioneer instinct, emigrated to Texas in 1870. Coming from Warrensburg, Missouri, which was named for the prominent Warren family. The doctor came to Texas, and Palo Pinto County, following his brother Armenus Warren, who had sent home to Missouri, and the Warren family, a wonderful story about Texas being a promising and rich cow country.
Dr. Warren and his family returned to Missouri where he entered the Civil War. Warren practiced medicine in the county for 34 years as "the Country Doctor." He loved to ranch. He traveled the early trails by horseback. Dr. Warren never refused a call, day or night.
The Warren family came with a small caravan of three covered wagons to Palo Pinto County, and the small town of Palo Pinto where the doctor's brother Armenus, had settled with his wife Susan, and their family.
David B. Warren's family consisted of the doctor, his wife Jemima (Snelling) Warren, and three daughters. The oldest of the daughters was Mariposa, an 1849 "California Gold Rush baby." Dr. Warren had been a young wagon train doctor emigrating from Missouri, with the Snelling family, to California in 1849.
The Warrens stayed six years in California, living most of the time in the town of Snelling, which was named for Mariposa's grandfather, Benjamin Snelling.
Mariposa and her family's trip back home to Missouri was a far cry from the heart-breaking wagon-train trip the Warrens had taken when emigrating to California, and the "gold rush." The trip back to Missouri was by boat, and by way of Cape Horn. This trip on the water was short, taking only six weeks.
Dr. Warren's pioneering instinct, and the promising story of Texas caused him to emigrate west again.
