According to a Short Biography of William Ware written by
Vicki Cheesman in 2009, the children of William and his second wife (Susannah Payne Ware)
were (1) Ann Nancy Payne Ware who
was born on August 20, 1792, married (first) James Richardson and (second) Stephen
Sergeant (she died on November 29, 1872 on a train heading to visit her son Edmond in
Mississippi), (2) Susan Elizabeth Eliza
Ware (born 1793) who married Henry Sargeant in 1810, (3) Agnes Ware (born 1795) who married (first)
William Dupry and (second) John Briscoe, (4)
John Ware II (born 1797) who married Betty Saunders, (5) Robert Payne Ware who was born December 1,
1801 and married Martha Sanders. He died in ** John Ware (number 4) and his wife
Betty gave land for a Methodist church in 1832 that was on the north side of
the public road below Bachelors Hall in ** Anne Payne Ware & 1st
husband James Richardson had a son James who married Susan Estes and they had a son named
Triplett Estes Richardson. Anne Payne Ware & 2nd
husband Stephen Sargeant had daughter named Margarett Delphia. She married James Lea and their daughter Talluah
married Triplett Estes Richardson. (ref. 889) (4) John Ware was
born on June 10, 1768, and he was baptized a month later on July 18, 1762. On September 6, 1780, he was married to Margarett
Lady. All that is really known about him at
this time is that he died at sea. With the
strong family history of military service, his death very probably was related to the War.

was baptized on June 24, 1764. She later
married James Poindexter on February 2, 1806 (6) Mildred Ware was born on

was baptized on September 22, 1771. (ref. 5,621,651,372)
