The more that I think about your query the more interesting it becomes. My Samuel Young was born in Cumberland co and moved to Northumberland co where he served in the militia. Many years later here in IL two of his sons married daughters of a Malachi Ware. We do not know where that family came from. It would be interesting to know if the two families were acquainted in early PA. When was your Henry Ware in Northumberland co?? Thanks Ray --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
