Owner of belle grove

The first owner was John Andrews ..He sold it to Henry Ware who was the father of James and John Ware ... After a time , he gave it to his two sons ...I know this to be a fact because my mother is the granddaughter of John Ware ... We know our family history and others in the immediate family can confer what I am stating to be a fact ...At the end of the Civil War there was a million dollar cotton claim . James eventually bought out John's share and he moved to Dixon Grove plantation .. M'Lou Castillo (talk) 14:18, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
