Hi Valerie and ear, I am also looking for some Wards. The following is what I have. I have proven down from Sarah T. Frances Ward m Huff., but do not know any more about her family. I have a contact for the other daughter's line, but am mostly interested in their ancestors. Do any of these fit into your Ward information? Seems like if they are kin to your Samuel, Robert might be his grandson? Descendants of Robert Milton WARD 1 Robert Milton WARD b: Abt. 1846 in Oglethorpe Co., Ga . +Louisa Aramintha HAMMOND m: December 07, 1865 in Oglethorpe Co, Ga ........ 2 Jonie Evelyn WARD b: February 23, 1867 ........ 2 Sarah T. Frances (Sallie) WARD b: February 27, 1869 d: July 23, 1912 Burial: Huff - Hargrove Cem., Crawford, Ga. ............ +James Richard HUFF b: April 10, 1863 m: February 27, 1887 in Oglethorpe Co, Ga d: February 18, 1942 in at home, near Crawford, Oglethorpe Co., Ga. Burial: Huff-Hargrove Cem., Oglethorpe Co., GA. Valerie, You said >I have written the NSDAR for a copy of an application using Samuel. I am already a member so it will take 4-6 weeks to hear back. I would be very interested in what you find out. Ear states that by > By 1800 Seth and family was in Oglethorpe county, GA. Later records have Samual there. > >Somewhere around here I have information on the children of Samual and Eady. >As at least one descendent joined the Hudson Family Association. Also, another >person who is researching Samual is my notes, which are not available at this >given moment. I am very interested in the desc, here since they were in Oblethorpe Co rather than the Carroll Co area. in your data. Looking forward to sharing data and possibly solving the mystery here.
