**
written on stationary from the White House
Executive Mansion, Washington
Please
ask Mrs. Hayes if she has knowledge of John Ware or his family who emigrated from Virginia
to Kentucky among the first settlers of that country.
If so, I would like to know how many children there were and their names. I wish this information for the benefit of my
children. John Ware was my only uncle on my
father’s side. My father’s name was
Thomas.
Henry Ware
Pass Christian, Mississippi
**
Henry Ware was not a member of the family line that came down through Josiah Ware.
***I
would like to thank Jane & Scott Dudgeon for allowing me to copy & transcribe this
letter for my historical research. I am deeply
grateful.
