BIOGRAPHY: Hi Cherii:
BIOGRAPHY: Here is a write up that my mother and my aunt Esther put together from memory
and correspondence, etc. Been looking for it on my computer, and finally found it.BIOGRAPHY:
SAMUEL WARE
CAROLINE ANNETTE SORENSENBIOGRAPHY: Samuel Ware was the fifth child of George Ware and Naomi Bigg. He was born
September 4, 1824 at Lenham, Kent, England. His parents had thirteen children. Only one who died as a child. There were seven boys and five girls in his family who grew to manhood although some of them died in England.BIOGRAPHY: Samuel worked in a factory as a corder in his early childhood. At the age of
nineteen he became manager of the factory.BIOGRAPHY: When the gospel was being preached in the early days, the Ware family heard
and accepted it after much persecution. Samuel was in England at the time when the Twelve Apostles were there and sat in conference as a quorum in a foreign land for the first time. He heard them speak in a church called the Cock Pit. He was also a witness of the baptism of Sister Hatfield, a good faithful sister who had been ill for a long time. The Elders visited her and promised her if she would embrace the Gospel, be baptized and join the church she would be healed. The day she was to be baptized it was a very cold day and a hole had to be cut in the crusted ice on the river. The Elders carried her to the spot, the mob following and were enraged and said if they put her in the cold water it would kill her, that her death would be on their heads. She was taken out of the water, was confirmed a member of the church, and walked home in her wet clothes. She did not catch cold or have any bad effects whatever.BIOGRAPHY: The family then prepared to emigrate to Utah. One of Samuels sisters, Mary
Ware King and family, preceded him to Utah. Before emigrating to Utah he buried one wife, Hannah Shanks Ware and three children, two boys and one girl, in England. He had married again and with his wife Alice Cosgrove, two children, one boy and one girl, his father, mother, two sisters and one brother started from their home to embark at Liverpool for America. The one boy took ill and died and was buried at Liverpool.BIOGRAPHY: They left their home in Preston, England on December 18, 1854 and arrived in
Liverpool ready to sail on the ship "Helias". They boarded the ship on the 19th of December, ready to sail on the 20th., but there was something wrong on the ship and they had to go back ashore. They had to stay in Liverpool until January 15, 185S waiting for another ship. By this time a lot of their food was gone and they had no money to buy more. (In those days the people had to furnish their own provisions. I guess unless you traveled first class.)BIOGRAPHY: The ship they sailed on was the "Charles Buck" and because of contrary winds
they were drifted far off of their course. Having to stay many weeks on the sea. When the winds were down and they could make no headway the Saints on board prayed for wind and their prayers were answered. One of the mates on the vessel said "Blow devils blow". The Mormons are praying for Wind. The wind blew and they finally landed in Cape Horn, South America. It took eight weary weeks to make the voyage to New Orleans which was a long and tedious trial. Food ran short and those aboard suffered considerably from hunger and other privations. These were only the beginning of the hardships to be endured when they were crossing the plains by Ox teams, in going to Utah from New Orleans.BIOGRAPHY: The party sailed by boat on the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers to Atchison,
Kansas where grandfather, George Ware, died and was buried. He was a big hearted man and would share his meager portion of food with others so they could have more. Their food supply became so low they only had rice and no salt. Grandfather Ware could not eat that and when they did get more food his stomach could not stand it. Then he became a victom of Cholera and died. One of his daughters said he starved to death.BIOGRAPHY: They came to Utah in Richard Ballantynes Co. arriving in Salt Lake City on

Erastus Snow and Brother and Sister Ballentyne were among the number. The night was spent in feasting and dancing, in music and prayer and general rejoicing that the hardships and perils of their tedious journey were at an end. They came into the city the next morning in beautiful order. The band mounted on horse back rode at the head of the company and played delightful music. Their flag was borne by two young men on horse back and several smaller flags floated from the tops of wagons as they corraled on Union Square Presidents YOung and Kimball rode down to see them and give them cordial welcome to the valley of Ephraim.BIOGRAPHY: After staying all night in Salt Lake they next day went to Kaysville, Davis

Tolhoe Wilberg, from facts she obtained from Samuel Wares family group sheets and from the facts she was told by Lovina Hudson Tolboe, her grandmother-in- law.BIOGRAPHY: Samuel Ware was born September 4, 1824 at Lenham, Kent, England (This was at
the time James Monroe was President of the United States and before the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was organized. He was the fifth child of George Ware and Naomi Bigg.

have a divorce. He married his first wife, Hannah Shanks, in Lenham, Kent, England on March 14, 1846.

Sarah died when she was about 4 years old, Mary died when she was four months old, George died when he was about three years old - six months after his Mother died. Hannah Shanks Ware died November 4, 1848. (How heartbroken this young husband and father must have been to loose four people so (I wonder what happened.

To them were born the following children: Benjamin, Ruth, Naomi, Richard, John (After the birth of Richard John Ware and before the birth of Mary Ann they moved to Manti, San Pete, Utah.

Alice Cosgrove Ware died October 13,1867 at Manti, San Pete, Utah. She was buried in Manti Cemetery Alice left Samuel with six small children the oldest girl Ruth was fifteen but the baby Sarah was only 23 months old. Again Samuel was left but this time with a family to keep him busy and to be thankful for. Three months after Alice died Samuel married Caroline Annette Sorenson in the endowment house in Salt Lake City on January 25, 1868 and five more children were born. They were named Caroline, Annette, James Russell, Naomi Christina, Rachel Henrrietta and Esther Jemina. Baby Naomi, the third child died the day she was born. The other four all lived to be married. Caroline died April 20, 1875, the day her baby Esther Jemina was born. Just seven years and Samuel was left again with four more children - ten in all. Baby Rachel being almost two. But still Samuel tried again and on September 6, 1875 (42 months after the death of Caroline) he married Anna Christena Jensen in the endowment house at Salt Lake City. His fourth marriage at the age of 51. To this couple were born two daughers Anna Samulina and Johanna Victoria, nicknamed Delsie (Actually Aunt Delsie didn't like her name and said she was going to be Della Ware, but they called her Delsie) When Delsie was 29 years old her Mother, Anna Christina Jensen, died on August 29, 1908 and was buried in Manti (Three wives buried on Manti and one in England.)

At the age of 86 (1 year and 5 months after Anna Christina died) on January 24, 1910 Samuel Ware died and was buried in the Manti Cemetery, Sampete County, Utah on February 2, 1910.BIOGRAPHY: Lovica Talboe, a granddaughter decended from Samuel Wares daughter Mary Ann
who married Thomas Hudson. Lovida said:BIOGRAPHY: "What I remember about Grandpa Ware was that he was just a grand old man. He
was a religious man, a prayerful man and always set a good example. He worked dilegently in the Manti Temple and worked there steadily for at least fifteen years. As children, Lovina said, that she and her brothers and sisters would follow her grandfather to the temple and then he would give each of them a kiss and tell them to hurry home. They all just worshiped him. He had a long white beard and looked so clean and saintly."BIOGRAPHY: When Samuel Ware moved his family from Kaysville, Davis County to Manti, Utah,
it was a long hard trip (4 small children with them) when they got to Ephraim they had a battle with the Indians but no one was hurt. (a lot of shooting and a scare for everyone) When he got to Manti he ran a flour mill there.BIOGRAPHY: Lovica couldn't remember anything about Alice Cosgrove, her grand mother. She
