(Richard) Warren has a long history bottling in Paterson dating back to 1879 starting with the William S. Kinch Company, then in 1882 he went into business under his name with Kinch and Arthur Donnely as "Richard Warren & Co." until 1889, at which time the name changed to "Richard Warren Co." and Arthur Donnely is no longer part of the company. They remained in business as such until at least 1899, the business was at 89-91-93 Prospect St. in the city. In 1899 William S. Carr is listed as President of the company and Richard Warren as treasurer, his son is listed as Secretary.
Richard Warren and William Carr lived around the corner from each other; one at 615 East 18th Street and the other at 423 Broadway.

Census 1900 423 Broadway, Paterson, Passaic, New Jersey, USA

William S Carr (45) was shown living at 423 Broadway, Paterson, NY with his wife, Eliza A (45) and children: Arthur C (18), Florence M (17), William A (12), Elizabeth D (10), Clara A (9), Edith T (7), Helen D (5) and Louis D (11 months). William's home was down the street from a coal tipple at 443/445 Broadway - which would have made coal dust omnipresent in the home & neighborhood! His employment was shown as a Foreman at a locomotive shop while his son Arthur was a clerk for the Erie Railroad. All the otherâ€¦. William very likely worked at one of the several locomotive works in the vicinity of Spruce & Market streets in Paterson: Rogers Locomotive and Machine Works, Grant Locomotive Works (out of business by 1885), or Danforth & Cook Locomotive Works (by 1901 part of American Locomotive Company). The locomotive facilities were collocated, less than 1.4-miles from William's home at 423 Broadway - a 28-minute walk. See: http://patersongreatfalls.org/rogers.html

Census 1910 660 East 29th Street, Paterson, Passaic, New Jersey, USA

William's family increased by one since the 1900 Census with Henry Parke born in August 1900. Henry's middle name was without the "e" in later documents. Four children are employed outside the house: Arthur is an engineer, Florence is a teacher, William in the same illegible profession (freemason?) as his father, and Elizabeth is a nurse in a hospital.
William continued to work as a foreman at a locomotive works. As noted on the 1900 Census, the works was probably in the area of Spruce & Market streets. Grant works was no longer in business.

Census 1920 370 Van Houten Street, Paterson, Passaic, New Jersey, USA

William's (65) employment was as an engineer, but the nature of that work is not legible on the record. It is possible he was either a design engineer at the locomotive works where he had previously been a foreman, or was an engineer for a railroad.

	Carr, William Seward: 1880 marriage to Elizabeth E Donnelly William Seward Carr and Miss Elizabeth E. Donnelly, both 25 years of age, were married on 20 October, 1880 at 4 P.M. in what appears to read the Donnelly residence in Paterson (Broadway), NJ. Although, family records reflect the location as 431 Broadway which maps to the modern location of St. Paul's Episcopal Church. William was employed as a mechanic when they were married. The parents were listed as Adam Carr & Sarah E Tier and Arthur M. Donnelly & Amelia M. Drury. Of the four parents, only Sarah was born in the US. The others were born in Scotland, Ireland or England. The witnesses appear to read S.F. Watson and Amelia Donnelly. The name of the minister is not entirely legible but it appears he was from Paterson, NJ. Elizabeth's middle initial may have been in error - her middle name was Amanda.

	Carr: Cedar Lawn Cemetery burial card The card reflects family members buried. There are only two Carr family gravestones to mark the 11 burials in lot 164; both headstones are 12"x24". The lower left portion of the card refelcts eligibility for the remaining spaces. The comments include: 1) Owners 2 surviving children 2) Louis D Carr & 3) Henry P Carr & 3 daughters dec'd 2 deceased 4) Helen Carr Pyle (dtr of owner) 5) Arthur Robert Carr - Grandson 6) Joseph Warren Chapman Grandson 7) Elizabeth Donnelley Chapman Carney 8) Florence Marie Chapman 9) Helen Virginia Mathews Granddaughter & many other grandchildren The note above grave #11 indicates "Temp fam" which suggests that a larger stone was pending. The back of the card enumerates the 11 burials, two of which appear to have been exhumed.
	Carr: Cedar Lawn Cemetery burial card (back) Eleven (11) bodies were buried in this otherwise unmarked Carr family plot. In accordance with their numbered graves they are: 10) Minnie Carr (age 0-years, 7-months, 22-days), 09) Warren L. Carr (age 3-years, 4-months, 10-days), 03) Eliza Drury (age 49-years, 0-months, 0-days), 03) Amelia M.

Two bodies may have been exhumed (Ex.): Eliza A Carr and Elizabeth D Chapman Carr. B. Minnie was a nickname for Mary Amelia Carr. C. Marion was also known as Marian and Marcia. Whether Marion is a typo cannot be clarified since there is no gravestone for the 11-month, 23-day old child. D. Eliza Drury has not been identified as of September, 2012.
	Cemetery: Cedar Lawn, Carr family plots This diagram was provided by the cemetery staff to assist visitors in locating grave sites. Since the diagram is not wholly legible, visitors must first locate the grave site numbers on a larger diagram in the office - which itself requires the use of a magnifying glass. The star on the lower portion is the site of the office, while the two red dots on the right-hand portion indicate the general location of two Carr family plots: 1) the left-hand site is a without a monument, although there are two headstones; one for William A Carr and one for Elizabeth Chapman Carney (plot 164); 2) the right-hand site adjacent to Union Avenue has a single monument engraved with four names across the base: Ella, Ada, Adam and Sarah. The main entrance to the cemetery is from McLean Blvd (Route 20) which runs between the cemetery and the Passaic River.
	Carr, Adam: 1870 Census The census showed Adam (38), a plumber from Scotland living in the 4th Ward of Paterson, NJ along with his wife Sarah (38), Ada (18), William (15), Ella (7), and Henry L (5). Ada and Ella would never marry. Three children died in 1864: Catherine at age 7, Horace Greeley at age 6 and Frances at age 5. Other documents show that his profession is understated. His company, Adam Carr & Co., manufactured brass cocks and iron & galvanized pipes. Eric and Barbara (nee Stockdale) Mann located four US Patents awarded or assigned to Adam Carr in the late 1800's. They are available elsewhere on this website. The patents are associated with steam propulsion and relate directly to his indicated occupation: plumber.
	Carr, Adam: 1882 Patent #257,634 Straightway Valve Carr, William Seward: 1882 Patent 257,634 Straightway Value James Arthur of Jersey City was assignor of one-half of the patent No 257,634 to William S. Carr of Paterson, NJ. The patent was an improvement in straight-way valves that would be less susceptible to the collection of sediment and less susceptible to friction when two internal disks are drawn back.
	Carr, William: 1880 Marriage to Eliza Donnelly

	Richard Warren Company 1899 See nearby map of the Kinch Bottling Company for additional bottling company details.
	The Rogers Locomotive Works Paterson, New Jersey was the home of five steam locomotive manufacturers. The largest of these was the Rogers Locomotive Works. It is likely that William Seward Carr worked at this facility - it was but 1.4-miles from his home at 423 Broadway.
	Paterson Locomotive Works - 1887 This map reflects the presence in Paterson of three locomotive companies: Rogers works, Grant works, and the Danforth and Cook works. The Sanborn company produced fire insurance maps that convey various aspects of fire coding: number of floors, heights, construction materials, roof materials, street numbers, etc. See: http://map.princeton.edu/mapviewer/#/g158bk65d
