Biography

John was born in 1565. John Ware ... He passed away in 1625.[1]

The English have been in Ireland, both as peaceful settlers and conquerors, since the 12th century, but it wasn't until the rule of King Henry VIII that English interference took a major role." The King decided to send Protestants to "plant" or colonize Ireland in order to subdue and rule the country. Additionally, non-conforming Protestants often went to Ireland in order to worship as they chose with minimal interference from the Anglican Church of England. "According to the History of Bandon, in 1585 a group of well-to-do men from Somersetshire County, England were granted acreage on the condition they bring over settlers to work the land. The name "Ware" was among the first group, as they had been early converts to the Protestant religion. This is most likely the date John Ware arrived in Ireland, followed later by his younger brother James." From a handwritten pedigree chart among the Crookshank papers in the British Genealogical Library in London, it shows Christopher Ware had two sons. The eldest son, John, settled in County Cork, Ireland and married Mary Owen. Their descendants were known as the Wares of Woodfort; Woodford Manor being located in the Parish of Kilshanick, Barony of Duhallow and County of Cork." John's wife, Mary Owen, was from one of the most powerful and ancient families of South Pembrokeshire, Wales - known as the Owen family of Orielton. Her mother (Isabella Griffith) was the daughter of Sir William Griffith of Penrhyn; a branch of the Tudor family.[2]

John was born about 1565. John Ware ... He passed away about 1625. [3]

Ware-109 and Ware-368 do not represent the same person because: They may well be the same person one is missing dates and the father is different, one from Ireland and one from England. I believe these two profiles represent the line that was originally believed to be THE Ware line but are now broken due to the correct line being implemented.

Ware-109 and Ware-368 appear to represent the same person because: I was working with a Ware in my line and saw these two John Ware's that appear to be the same person. One was uploaded in a ged.com, but needs to be adopted. I have yours as the final file. Please merge.

Thank you.
