    1. [VAROOTS] searching for "The Mansion"---John Ward, 1820's
    2. freedbyluvv
    3. Hello list, I am wondering if anyone here knows more about a historic home in Campbell Co., Va. previously owned by John Ward c.1820's. I am searching for any drawings/images of the place commonly known as "The Mansion" among then-locals. John Ward also owned hundreds of acres in neighboring Pittsylvania Co. Va. that he named Ward's Springs, a.k.a. Sulpher Springs. He also ran a place called Ward's Tavern on his land where the current town of Gretna now sits, a few miles north of Chatham. I am not sure which city "The Mansion" (as the home was called) in Campbell Co. was located, that is the obstacle I am facing trying to locate it. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide, or suggestions you can point me to. Thanks, April. --------------------------------- The fish are biting.
