In the 1930 Census they were located in Heber Spring, Cleburne County. That is the last information I have on them. He was a Justice of the Peace in Heber Springs and I assume that he was then to. I am unable to make out what the census had for his occupation. I know he was an Agent, but am not able to make out the Industry or Business (possibly Calbeting - at least that is what the letters looked like to me, but I'm not sure what calbeting could be). The only information I have after that is that their son, Howard Hayes WARD was born in Pearson, Cleburne, Arkansas in 1921 and died in September of 1980 in Batesville, Independence, Arkansas. Howard was married to a Mary Mageline Sanders at the time that he applied for his SSN in Heber Springs (he was about age 19). Besides what I mentioned before, this is all the information I have on Edward and Annie. They did have 7 children that I know of: Blanche (born about 1911), Jewel (born about 1914), Lloyd E (born about 1916), Gracie (born about 1919), Howard Hayes (born 14 Nov 1921 in Pearson, Cleburne, Arkansas), Robert (born about 1924 in Arkansas), Eugene (born about Sep 1928 in Arkansas). I am unable to find any information on any of their children besides, Howard, my husband's grandfather. ~Cassandra Quoting lch72120@alltel.net: > No idea where they are buried? > > > > From: <cdward@conwaycorp.net> > > Date: 2004/06/04 Fri AM 09:01:20 CDT > > To: AGS-L@rootsweb.com > > Subject: Re: [AGS] Brick Wall - WARD/PARISH - Please Help > > > > I would but I can't find anything that shows when they died.
