in Berkshire, Massachusetts. He came to the Lake Superior region in 1818, with
his brother Truman A., younger than himself, to engage in the fur trade. The
U.S. Government having some time before enacted that no one, not a citizen of
the United States, should engage in the fur trade, the British subjects, who
were engaged in that trade, employed American clerks to take charge of their
posts. The Warren brothers entered the service of Cadotte, Michael, an old
trader among the Ojibways at La Pointe, and soon became a great favorite with
the Ojibways [sic]. In 1821, each of the brothers married a daughter of
Cadotte, and in 1832, the latter sold out all his trading outfit to them, and
retired from the business. Brunsen, Rev. Alfred, in his autobiographical
reminiscences, entitled 'A Western Pioneer,' states that 'Lyman M. Warren
traded for several years in the Lac du Flambeau, Lac Coutereille and Saint
Croix Departments, in opposition to the American Fur Company. He then entered
into an arrangement with them and took charge of those three departments as
partner and chief factor under a salary, making his depot at La Pointe. This
arrangement continued until 1834.' La Pointe appears to have been his
permanent residence until his death [sic]. ... Mr. Warren was an adherent of
the common evangelical belief, and a member of the Pressbyterian Church.
Boutwell, Rev. Wm. T., says 'I knew him as a good Christina man, and as one
desirous of giving his children the benefits of a Christian education.' Ayer,
Mrs. says, 'He was among the first to invite American missionaries into the
region of Lake Superior, and he assisted them as he had opportunity, not only
by his influence, but sometimes by his purse. He united with the mission
church at Mackinaw,' Rev. Mr. Brunson, who visited him in 1843, says, 'Mr.
Warren had a large and select library, an unexpected sight in an Indian
country, containing some books that I had never before seen. After dissolving
his connection with the American Fur Company, probably about the year 1838,
he removed to the Chippewa River, Wisconsin, where he had been appointed as
a farmer, blacksmith, and sub-agent to the Ojibways, in that reservation. He
located his post at a point a few miles above Chippewa Falls, at a place now
known as Chippewa City. Her, in connection with Brunett, Jean, he built a
saw-mill and opened a farm, which was soon furnished with commodious
buildings. His wife died there JUL 21, 1843, and he took her remains to La
Pointe for interment. Mr. Warren died at La Pointe, around the age of
53.

!Frances Densmore: "Sketch of the Life of Mary Warren English"
Mrs. Mary Warren English [photo pl. 2, a], the writer's interpreter during a
work which extended from 1907 to 1921, was born on Madeline Island in 1835.
Her father was Lyman M. Warren, who was then in charge of the trading post of
the American Fur Co. Her mother was the granddaughter of White Crane, a
full-blood Chippewa, and the daughter of Michel Cadotte, a French trader. (See
p. 140.) The employees of the fur company hired a woman named Miss Gates to
come to the island to teach their children. Mrs. English attended this little
school and later went to a shcool maintained there by the American Foreign
Missionary Society of th Presbyterian Church. This shcool was in charge of a
family named Wheeler, and in 1847, after the death of Mrs. English's mother,
they took her into their family; papers being made out to the effect that she
should lived with them until she was 18 years old. The Wheelers moved to
Odanah, Wis., and she was there trained to be a teacher, becoming so proficient
that she acted as assistant in the mission school.
In 1854 the Indians asked the Government to give them schools and in 1856,
when the reservations were first set apart, the first school was established at
Odanah. Mrs. English taught at this school for two years and then went to the
Twinsburg Institute, 5 miles from Cleveland, to improve her qualifications.
After two years of study she returned to Odanah and resumed her teaching in the
Government school. A year later she was transferred to the Government school
at Red Cliff, where she taught for six years. She then obtained a State
certificate and taught in the district schools of the State, including two
years at Madeline Island and two years at Eagle River. In the meantime the
Wheeler familyhad moved to Beloit, Wis., and being still ambitious, she went to
Beloit and remained there three years, studying music, which she believed would
assist her in teaching. While there in 1873 she received a letter from her
brother, Truman Warren, stating that a large school had been established by the
Government at White Earth and suggesting that she join him at that place. She
was the principal teacher at White Earth school for two years, having several
teachers under her direction. At that time a school had been started by the
Government at Red Lake, Minn., and was in need of an experienced teacher. She
accepted the position and taught there for 15 years. While there she married
John English.
In recent years Mrs. English has lived at White Earth and on numerous
occasions has done important interpreting for the Chippewa. Her death occurred
in 1925.
Mrs. English was a sister of William W. Warren, the auther of "history of the
Ojibways," and of Mrs. Julia Spears, who contributed valuable data to the
present
work.
