* Information provided by Mike Pruitt  -- This stone was turned over back in 2005 and it read J H Ware born 1880 and died in 1916. This was found next to his parents W. I. Ware and Luise Ware.  I now know that this was Joseph Hancock Ware born Aug 8, 1880 Shiloh, Limestone Co., TX and died June 2, 1916 in Mexia, Limestone Co., TX of diabetes.  It took about two hours for my cousins to get this large gravestone turned over with grown men working on it.

Also the F. M. Pruit is Francis Marion Pruitt born about 1842 in MS and Unknown when he died.  He is the brother to Luise Pruitt Ware. I know that he died after 1870 since he was listed with his mother, May Pruitt, in Limestone Co., TX at Eutaw Post Office page 177 dwelling #1216. *
