I actually got in contact with someone who had a TON of information on Joseph Ward and his brothers! He said one thing of interest was that 3 of the brothers were part of Lee's army when he surrendered at Appomattox. I will forward that information to you when I get it. He says it will take approximately two months because he has to reorganize the information. As for Joseph A Ward, all I know is that he was born in 1843 - pased on in 1897. I believe he's buried in Texas. He was born and married in Henry County. He had three wives. Their names are (?) Johnson, Lydia Angeline Pelham, and Annie McDougle. He had 3 brothers: William G., Wiley G., and John W. Ward. All born between 1840 - 1852 in Henry County, Alabama. Prior to 1860 Joseph and Wiley were sent to live with a cousin, Christopher Ward, and his family. Young John W. was sent to live with William H. and Nancy Ward. Also Joseph came to Texas after the war. He had two sons James Thomas Ward (1865), and Johnny Ward (1870). Both came with him to Texas. He also had a daughter born around 1868 (Maggie) that stayed in Alabama. His other daughter, Mary Lee "Mollie" Ward is my grandmother's mother. Any additional information found between now and then would be greatly appreciated =) Thank you for the help!
