Dave, Since you were so generous to look up something for Barbara, I wonder if I could impose on you to see if there is any mention of the WARE family in Grant County. They were in Big Patch mostly. Thanks so much. Libby Baker

Libby, Nothing in the 1881 Grant Co. History. Can you provide some names, dates, places for you Ware ancestors? The only item I could find is the following Civil War soldier: William Ware Residence: Smelser, Wisconsin Enlisted as a Private on 05 January 1864 Enlisted in Company F, 20th Infantry Regiment Died of disease Company F, 20th Infantry Regiment Wisconsin on 06 September 1864 in Fort Morgan, AL Dave Taft Arlington, TX
