Wife of Mancel Kennedy.
Buried in Ware Cemetery, Smith County, MS.
Note
I have all of Frank Kennedy's work on this part of his family and will add it sometime after Roots Tech when I have time. I also believe the source for her burial in Ware cemetery is from the old Sharon book I have in my collection-I'll verify that and add as soon as I can.
Conflicts
There is another Mary Ware that it is claimed to be the daughter of John and Mary. She is listed now as the daughter of William, granddaughter to John and Mary.

So I am wondering how you came up with this Mary Kennedy being the daughter of Mary Polly rather than the one Mary Ware I suggested.
From what I have seen thus far, the Mary Kennedy that was Married to Mancel was the daughter of Frank Ware(1824-1883) and Elizabeth Ann Walker(1843-1923).
Mancel Kennedy was born about 1856 and was the son for Ferdinand Dent Kennedy and Matilda Jane Thames.
This Mary Kennedy would have been born around 1860.
It is possible I have the wrong parents, there was a another Mary Ware living in Stewart County that was on the 1870 Census as daughter of William and Emily. Perhaps this is where my Mary belongs. Maybe my Mary is the granddaughter, since William is the son of John and Mary Springer.
Regardless, a better source is needed to determine which one is which.
