THE HISTORY OF LAKE WARREN By Neil T. Jesiolowski, Nockamixon Historic Commissioner

During the Great Depression in the 1930’s Lake Warren was constructed as a WPA Government Project.

The location was the swamp on a 700 plus acres section of Game Land #56 in Nockamixon Township which is now known as Rapp Creek and the headwaters of the Tinicum Creek.

It was dug using men with horse drawn scoops to build a 900-foot dam breast with a spillway which in the end a lake of approximately 40 acres a swimming dock with a bridge over the spillway. Two fish hatcheries where constructed off the northwest and northeast sides of the lake which now only one pond still exists northwest of the lake.

The story goes that during the dig the men struck what they thought was gold. They all quit only to find out that it was fool's gold. They were not able to reclaim their jobs as there were many men waiting in line for work. Times were tough during the Great Depression.
