General Notes: Husband - Maj. James Warne
He was educated for the profession of law in the schools of his native county and the academy in Uniontown, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, but, soon after leaving school, engaged himself as a clerk in a store at Parkison's Ferry, later Monongahela City. His next venture was in boat-building, boating, and trading upon the rivers as far as New Orleans. He followed the custom of that day of returning overland to his home after disposing of his cargo and boat.
In 1811, being duly elected and returned, he was commissioned by Governor Simon Snyder captain of a light infantry company attached to the second battalion of the Fifty-third Regiment of the militia of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, his term to be computed for four years from the third day of August in the year named. In 1812 his company offered the United States government their services for the war. On June 11th they were ordered to parade for inspection. They were accepted by the government, and, September 5th, took up their march for headquarters. Maj. Warne served as captain of this company until Sept. 25, 1812, when he was elected, and September 27th commissioned, major of the First Battalion in the Third Infantry Regiment, commanded by Col. Snyder, and in that capacity served until Dec. 31, 1812, that being the date of his discharge. He then returned home, and in connection with his brother-in-law, William Parkison, built a glass-factory in Williamsport, the first one located there. This they operated, and at the same time engaged in a general merchandising business, until about 1820, when they sold out, and he purchased the farm in Carroll township, then known as "Eden," later the property of his son, Joseph P. Warne. Here he lived as a farmer until his death, Oct. 28, 1855. He was a member of the Methodist Church, honorable and upright, a good, and patriotic citizen. [HWC 1882, 600]
He received a common-school education, then attended the academy at the Forks, intending to prepare for the ministry in the Presbyterian Church, but, owing to circumstances, went into mercantile pursuits at the age of eighteen. Soon after leaving school he came to Washington County, Pennsylvania, and conducted a store for one McKinley; then engaged in river traffic, and finally came to Parkison's Ferry (now Monongahela City), where he took part in various enterprises. About the year 1815 James Warne and his brother-in-law, William Parkison, built and operated the first window-glass factory erected in western Pennsylvania. In connection with the glass manufacture, he carried on a boatyard, and also did a general mercantile business, buying various kinds of stock and selling it in the eastern markets.
He was a scrivener of much ability, and many legal papers were long extant, which bore his handwriting. He performed the duties of legal adviser in the settlement of estates and business matters generally throughout the community.
In 1811 he was commissioned by Gov. Snyder as captain of a William's Port company, attached to the Fifty-third Regiment of the militia of Pennsylvania. In 1812 they offered their services to the Government, which were accepted, and the company went to the United States barracks at Meadville, Pennsylvania. In the autumn of 1812 he received a commission as major of the First Battalion in the Third Infantry Regiment, and held that position until receiving his discharge.
He was a liberal supporter of public enterprises, and voted with the Democratic party.
From his youth he had been connected for many years with the Presbyterian Church, but in advanced life he united with the Methodist Episcopal Society.
He was born in Allegheny County, just across the river from Monongahela City, and he was captain of a company recruited at Monongahela City for the Mexican service.
