Inscription. Gottlieb and Susan Bunert bought the 80 acre farm in 1849. They built a log cabin, dug a well and started to farm.

Their daughter's (Wilhelmine) diary stated the brick house was built in 1876, barn in 1883 and the carriage garage in 1892. Warren's last operating farm raised livestock and crops and had its own sawmill.

Today the 18 1/2 acre woods belongs to MCC College and the farm subdivided for homes. Bunert-Weier descendants still live in the homestead.

Erected 1997 by Warren Historical Commission.
