• Notes

  According to the letter from Henry B Ware, John had 2 sons John & Thomas. John supposedly went to Kentucky and was prominent there. John Garrett Ware died shortly after the Revolutionary War, when Thomas was 16, maybe in Maryland or in Georgia. In any case, Thomas was raised by John G. Ware's brother Robert, who had moved from Maryland to Georgia.
