Family lore has it that Mary's father Hiram Morgan was a teacher at West Chesterfield Academy, a private school and that her mother Alice Whitney was a student at the time that she became pregnant. There was a hasty marriage, and Hiram and Alice went to Nebraska and stayed with Hiram's older brother Flavius for a time where Mary was born. Alice was 16 at the time. [The 1900 census erroneously indicates that she was born in September, 1871.] A Vermont marriage record indicates that she married Sidney Levi Ware on September 24, 1890 in Brattleboro, Vermont, further identifying that she was 18 at the time and living in Chesterfield, New Hampshire. Two children were born of this union: Hazel & Willis.

Poem written by Mary about 1955:

YESTERDAYS.
by Mary Morgan Ware.

The yesterdays are so many,
Ghostly, and grim, and gray;
I haven't done my best with them;
And there's but one today.

Could the yesterdays be recalled,
And each one used today,
I doubt that we'd accomplish more.
With them in any way.

I've left so many tasks undone,
I'm filled with much dismay.
The yesterdays are so many,
And only one today.
