City of warren and surounding area.

Yes, it did. At the time most of Warren was unused farmland before suburban development.

Farmland is a use. People use it to grow crops. I know picky picky, just trying to point out that we need open space. The more we understand that, the more concerned we will be about land-use and un-contained development.

I doubt there was ever much wetland in Warren. The map suggests a very Jeffersonian style of land separation. No one would want the swampland. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Land_Survey_System
