Warburg came from a Jewish family, originally known as "Del Banco," which had its roots in Italy before relocating to Warburg, Westphalia, at the end of the 16th century. Upon settling in Warburg, they adopted the town's name as their surname. By the end of the 17th century, the family had moved to Altona, which was under Danish administration. Gumprich Marcus Warburg (1727-1801) continued the family's tradition of engaging in money exchange and pawnbroking in Altona, a practice that had been passed down through previous generations.

Warburg had a brother named Gerson Marcus (1765-1825). Warburg married Röschen Hausen (Abrahamson) and they had a daughter named Sara "Särchen" (1805-1884).
