“John Andrew Jackson Ware was born 5 Nov 1828 in Warren county, Ohio, the son of John Albertson Ware & Margaret Roberts. The day after Andrew Jackson won the election as 7th President of the United States, John A. J. Ware was born. It appears this is where he obtained his middle names.

“He was raised in Warren county, Ohio until he was about 2 years old. His family then moved to Stony Creek township, Henry county, Indiana where he lived until age 20. His family then moved to Grant and Green (later Union) counties. While living in Grant county John married Rachel Ann Vanhorn on 28 Apr 1850. Here they lived until they moved to Kansas.

John A. J. Ware died 23 Aug 1907 in Leona, Kansas and was buried in the Wolf River cemetery located near Troy, Doniphan county, Kansas.”
