_AMTID 162485320318:1030:191555462 _FSFTID KG8T-V3K _UID B9C0C235707C48AFAB6911661BE3D6B466B8 Death Yes, date unknown Person ID I6354 Scott Dickson Last Modified 16 Mar 2019
Father Thomas Ware, b. Abt 1770, Maryland, United States d. 19 Jan 1859, Colorado, Texas, United States
(Age ~ 89 years)
Mother Mary Sarah Jimerson, b. 17 Jan 1776, Rockbridge, Virginia, United States d. Bef 27 Aug 1817, Greene, Georgia, United States
(Age < 41 years)
Marriage 1796 Georgia, United States [3]
- I have no idea where the record came from that says that Thomas & Sarah were married in Talladega County, Alabama in 1796. That makes no sense at all. No one lived there and they lived on the eastern side fo Georgia.
U.S. marriage records says that this occurred in Georgia. In 1796, Alabama was a part of Georgia, I think.
This hardly seems the likely place for this marriage. Talladega was frontier country. The Jimersons and the Wares were well established on the eastern side of Georgia and did not seem to be heading out to the west to get married.
The record cited just says "Georgia" for their marriage. Perhaps this is a good research question.
