I am looking for information about the parents of Enos WARD. He was born about 1802 in KY; he married Elizabeth POLLOCK Dec 28, 1825, in Greene Co, OH [There was an earlier marriage of Enos WARD and Betsy BULL in Greene Co. It seems likely that it is the same Enos WARD, with the assumption that Betsy BULL had died soon after the marriage.] Enos and Elizabeth (POLLOCK) WARD had the following children: Andrew WARD, b: 1827 Joseph Pollock WARD, b: 1828 Charles N WARD, b: 1831 Elizabeth WARD, b: 1836 William WARD, b: 1840 It is likely that Andrew and Joseph were born in Greene Co before the family moved to Logan Co, OH. Joseph Pollock WARD married Emeline LOUGHEAD July 11, 1850 in Logan Co and was living in his father Enos' household in Logan Co as of the 1850 census. I have a hunch that I may have found Enos WARD's father. There is a William WARD in the 1820 Greene Co, OH census in Xenia Twp. William is in the 45 and up age range with a male in the household in the right age range for Enos. Living nearby are families who connect with the WARD family: John POLLOCK (Elizabeth POLLOCK's father), William LAUGHEAD/LOUGHEAD (Emeline LOUGHEAD's father), David LAUGHEAD/LOUGHEAD (William's father). Other nearby families with connections are those of MITCHELL, JACKSON and BULL. William WARD is also listed in the 1830 Greene Co, OH census and is shown as being in the 60-70 age range, which would make his year of birth approx. 1760 to 1770. Enos is not listed and may have moved to Logan Co by this time. I would appreciate any information about this family, particularly anything that would help prove or disprove that William WARD was the father of Enos. Thanks, ~Suz

A good many of these people migrated to Warren Co., IL. Some due to the connection to Monmouth College and some possibly due to the land granted for service in the War of 1812. I do have some collateral connections to Pollocks, Bulls, and Wards. Joseph Pollock Ward left Ohio in 1853 for Warren Co., IL and is found in the 1860 Census of Warren County, Tompkins Tp., family # 1752, living near his parents Enos and Elizabeth.. Joseph, left in the Spring of 1864 for Emporia, KS. About 1890 Joseph resided in Woodson Co., KS ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2001 8:30 PM Subject: [OHGREENE-L] Enos Ward > I am looking for information about the parents of Enos WARD.
