Biography

was a justice of the peace

Samuel" (Samuel, 3 Nathaniel*), born May 9, 1746; died at Heath, Mass., aged 83, Dec. 5, 1829. Kemoved before 1781 to Conway, Mass. "A gentlemanly and tender physician, cheerful and ingenious in his profession. His genial spirit made him many friends, and his constant public employment as a Justice of the Peace, &c, made him well known. He was of the salt of the earth." "Dr. Ware was a gentlemanly and tender physician, exact and neat in his dress, careful and temperate in his diet, very indus- trious, an early riser, cheerful and ingenious in his profession, and was sent for in towns seventeen miles distant. He said he had earned a good estate, while others were sleeping. He regretted he had not accepted his father's offer of a college education. After giving up his employment he seemed to live on the verge of heaven, and his body was apparently the temple of the Holy Ghost. His genial spirit gave him many friends, and his constant public employ- ment made his name as present as the light of day which will not soon be forgotten. He was of the salt of the earth." [Written by his daughter, Mrs. Sally Bonney.]

Married Jan. 24, 1771, in Dedham, Bethiah Avery, daughter of William (William, William, William) and Bethiah (Metcalf) Avery of Dedham (born Jan. 26, 1749, died Dec. 2, 1843, buried at Heath). [1]

I have in my possession the document appointing Samuel Ware to the position of Justice of the Peace. It is signed twice prominently by John Hancock. I will post a picture of it soon.
