“Warren Union Cemetery provides a dignified and respectful space for families to honor their loved ones. There has been speculation as to the origin of the name of the cemetery. They believe it is because of the union of the two church burying grounds and not referenced to the Civil War since it was referred to as the Union Cemetery as early as 1854. Today, the cemetery is the resting place of many of the original settlers of Warren.

St. Paul United Church of Christ pays for the upkeep of the east side.”
