I just got back from doing some more WARE research at the library. I had previously posted a request for information about my ggrandfather, Joe Ware who was from Georgia. My latest trip to the library turned up the fact that my ggrandfather was born in Tennessee instead of Georgia. So now I'm looking for information about: JOE WARE born in Tennessee about 1869 (probably near the Alabama state line) parents both born in Tennessee (date and names unknown) at least 3 brothers (John, Jesse and Alf Ware) married Ellen Quarles (Qualls?) living in Calhoun County, Alabama in 1919 living in Bridgeport, Jackson County, Alabama in 1920 my great aunt told me the mother of Joe Ware was part or full blood Indian I'm trying to find who Joe Ware's parents were. Mike Troxell

My cousin is looking for any info on Leman WARE m. Susan Eliz. ALKIRE b. 1895 killed in 1931. I am researching a different line of WARES (as far as I know). Barb Morris [email protected]

"Wear" name is mentioned in our lineage...during ancient times in England. My Ware lineage begins as an ancient English family that lived on the River Wear, England. Family in America descends from Sir Christopher Ware of Yorkshire. From info I have, the Wares came to Va colony and stayed in Virginia--Yorktown, Henrico Co., Amherst and Roanoke area. BUT I understand the relative that compiled the info I have, received lots of info from a lady in Kentucky..perhaps in the early 1980's or late 1970's.
