DEATH: [,, nsdar66]
Henry Ware is listed as J.P. on a number of land and slave transactions indicating that he was in Wilkes County and Greene County and active in the community.
Many of these show up in Wilkes Co., deed books as well as Greene Co. after its creation. This, to me, indicates that he was near the border. Or at least the land transactions occurred in what became Greene Co.
