My 3x Great Grandfather Joseph W. Warren was a resident of Sewickley, Pennsylvania. During my research, I found that he was referenced along with my 5x Great Grandfather, Nathan McPherson in the book "The Village of Sewickley" by Franklin Taylor Nevin, published in 1929. Much to my delight, I was able to find an original copy from an online bookseller a few years ago.
There is a lot of great information in this book and it also includes some valuable information that may interest other genealogists. I have transcribed the following as it appears in the book. Hopefully, it helps someone with their research.

One thing to note is the spelling "errors". My ancestor is Nathanial McPherson, but I've seen McFerson a lot in my research. Another ancestor of mine is John Lourimore but in this list, it's written as John Lauramor. Again, I've seen this named written in a variety of ways. The names have been transcribed as I found them in the book. Nothing has been altered.
