      <p>Francis Emroy Warren was born in Hinsdale, Berkshire County,
		  Massachusetts, on June 20, 1844 and emigrated to Wyoming, then part of the
		  Dakota Territory, in 1868. In 1883 Warren formed the Warren Live Stock Company
		  which grew to be one of the most important ranching operations in the state,
		  encompassing some 150,000 deeded acres. The company dealt in cattle, horses,
		  sheep, wool, hay, grain, mules, goats, swine, and poultry. It was one of the
		  largest sheep companies in the west. It was also a major real estate holder and
		  one of Wyoming's largest employers.</p>
