Really, my ONLY Ward is Martha, b 11 MAR 1649 according to Abram W. Foote's early 1900 genealogy. Somewhere - and I don't remember and stupidly didn't record where - I've run across the idea that her father's name was Miles. Martha married Pasco Foote II, son of 1630s Foote immigrant Pasco Foote, in 1668. She probably died within the next 10 years, since Pasco married again in 1678.

My earliest WARD ancestor is: Charles WARD born 15 May 1805 in Allegany County, New York. Have found no record of him there. Do not know his parents. I do know there was a James Ward living in the town of Nunda, Allegany County, New York during the early years (1810) of this county and while he had a number of children, it appears that he had no son named Charles. I also know there was a Zebadiah Ward that lived in this same area of Allegany County, NY during that same period of time but have never been able to find any other names in his family there. First official record found so far of my Charles WARD was in Adams County, Illinois on 17 August 1836 where he married Martha BURKE. Their children, about whom I have much info, were all born in Illinois and Missouri and were: (1) Martha Jane, (2) William J. (3) John B. (4) Isaiah A. (5) David C. (6) Harvey Z. (7) Granville (8) Henry Harrison According to an old family "hand-me-down" story just recently found, my Charles migrated to Illinois sometime during that 1805 and 1836 time frame, by riding a mule from West Virginia to Golden, Illinois. Golden is in fact, in Adams County, Illinois but this is the first time I've ever found anything that suggest Charles might have been in West Virginia at an earlier age. Have never been able to find any info on my Charles in West Virginia either. Carl Ward carlwward1@charter.net

My earliest Ward is James Ward b. abt 1816 in Ohio or Indiana. He lived in College Corners which is on the state line. James married Mary Rigsby (Riggsby) on Jan 9, 1834 in Union County, In. They had 6 children: Leandon, Sarah, Adney (my gg grandfather, Sammuel, George, and Perry. If anyone can connect with this please e-mail me at crackers@mcleodusa.net.

His second wife was named Mary Catherine Ward, allegedly daughter of Henry Ward. The Labadists reported that Catherine did not treat Augustine well. She was living in 1686 when Augustine Herman died at Bohemia Manor, Cecil County, MD. It has been reported that she had "several husbands" after Augustine Herman's death. Any further information on her would be greatly appreciated. She had no children with Augustine. Likewise Catherine did not treat Francina Herman (born 1662), Augustine's daughter by his first wife Janetje Varlith very well. Brenda Reed

I have information on William, Henry and Colonel John Ward. I am descended from both William and John. There was also a Miss Ward who is said to have been the second wife of Augustine Herman of Bohemia Manor. William Ward had a tract surveyed for him in 1671 in what was then Baltimore county and later Cecil county. He died April 17, 1720 and was buried in St. Stephens churchyard, Cecil County, MD. The first certain record of Henry Ward is the 24 August 1666 survey of 1400 acres on the south side of the Elk River in Cecil county MD called Poplar Neck. Henry Ward was born in England, probably before 1647, and died in New Castle County, Delaware, about 1683/84. Colonel John Ward had three tracts of land in 1707 when the rent roll in Cecil County MD was made. He died in 1747 in Cecil county MD. The notes below were written by Duncan Veazey in the 1890s when he was researching the origins of the Ward families of Cecil County Maryland. These notes may be helpful to people researching other Ward families as well. I retyped his document and added links to information I found on the Internet. I've left those links in here in case someone might find them useful/interesting. I don't have anything further on the information below but you can check those sources mentioned. In Brown's "Genesis of the United States', a copy of which is in the Peabody Library, the name of William Ward is found among those who subscribed to the Adventure of Virginia (The Virginia Company) Vol.2, page 1042, paid 37 pounds ten shillings. He was Marshall of the Admiralty Court of the Cinque Ports In " Holten's Emigrants ", a copy of which may also be seen in the public libraries, it is stated on page 180 that among those living in Virginia Feb. 16, 1623 were William Ward at a plantation over against James City and William Ward at James City - apparently two persons but possibly the same person. On page 233 among the master inhabitants of Virginia in 1624 and 1625 is found William Ward, aged 20 years. On page 260 is John Ward, his muster in the Elizabeth (vessel) seven persons. The writer has seen a statement that the first grants of land in Virginia were made in 1621, three grants the first day and one of the three to John Ward. this agrees with the statement in Holten that John Ward was living near James City in 1623. A William Ward was living in Northhampton County, Va., on the Eastern Shore of Virginia., a few years after. There were Wards also in Charles County, Maryland, children of John and Damaris Ward. Many tracts of land were held in Kent County, Md. by Matthew Ward and a Thomas Ward was in Kent County in early days. Matthew Tilghman Ward lived in Kent county and for a time in Cecil County but nothing has been found to connect him with this family. In 1692 the Act dividing the Province of Maryland into parishes was passed and William Ward was one of the Justices and Commissioners who divided Cecil County into the parish of North Sassafras on Saint Stephens and South Sassafras on Shrewsbury. The name Henry Ward appears in the Middle Atlantic region at least as early as 1637 when one of that name emigrated to Virginia (George Cabell Greer, Early Virginia Immigrants, 1623-1666 [1912; repr. ed., Baltimore, 1989], 343). This, or another Henry Ward of Stepney, London, died in Virginia in 1659 (Peter W. Coldham, The Complete Book of Emigrants 1607-1660 [Baltimore, 1988] [hereinafter cited as Emigrants 1607-1660], 422). On 4 November 1662, a Henry Ward had 550 acres surveyed in Spesutia Hundred, Baltimore County, on the Susquehanna River at the northern-most bounds of Stockets Chance, called Mount Surredoe (Maryland Rent Rolls: Baltimore and Anne Arundel Counties, 1700-1707, 1705-1724. A Consolidation of Articles from the Maryland Historical Magazine [1924-1931]; reprint ed., Baltimore, 1976], 20). On 4 July 1665 a Henry Ward claimed a land patent for transporting himself and 20 others to Maryland (MHR, Patents, 8:484).

The earliest Ward I have in my husband's line is Thomas H. Ward b. April 1833 in Pennsylvania. He died December 4, 1879 in Indiana. He married Mary Cook and had 3 known children: Nettie b. December 1862 in Indiana, Charlie Franklin b. April 22, 1866 in North Vernon, Indiana and Almira "Allie" b. 1868 in Indiana. I would love to know if Thomas had siblings and who his parents and ancestors were. Any connections?

Anyone with info reference Parents of John WARD, B; abt 1788, Digby, N.S.? His father, James WARD, believed to have built the WARD HOUSE, oldest private home in Digby, abt 1794.
