Warren, William Julian, planter and merchant, residing in Covington, La.,
was born in St. Tammany parish, La., Aug. 17, 1877.  He is a son of
Harrison Rankin and Arthemise Harriet (De Maille) Warren, the latter of
whom was born in Covington, La., in 1850.  Mr. Warren was educated in the
public schools of his native parish, and there continued to reside
throughout his youth and early manhood.  As the years advanced he devoted
his time and energies to the occupation of planter and later entered the
mercantile business in the town of Covington.  He has given his attention
to his business so successfully that it is now one of the largest in the
parish.  Mr. Warren, on his mother's side, is a direct descendant of the
noble house of De Maille of France, and he has in the Archives of his
family the title, crest and seal of the family.  His genealogy traces
direct to the Marquis de Maille, through his grandfather, Jules B. de
Maille.  In politics Mr. Warren is aligned with the democrats, and is a
communicant of the Catholic church.  He is numbered among the membership of
the Knights of Columbus, and of Boguefalaya Grove No. 21, Ancient Order of
Druids.  Nov. 6, 1901, Mr. Warren was married to Miss Mary Augusta Toffier
of New Iberia.  They are the parents of 2 children,  Harrison Rankin, Jr.,
and  Hazel Augusta.
