I've been told that some WARDS immigrated from Europe to NE PA in the 1800s. My earliest ancestor is William WARD born in England maybe between 1800-1820. I think he "might" have lived in Pennsylvania or Ohio because his son lived in both of those states. I have a lot of unanswered questions about him. How old was he when he immigrated to the U.S.? How old was he when he fathered his son, Mahlon James WARD in 1837/38? Did he immigrate to Canada before he came to the U.S.? Can anyone suggest "if" -or "where" I should begin to try find the ship that brought William WARD to America sometime before 1837/38? All I know is that William WARD is that he married a woman -name unknown - who was born in England or Ohio. They had at least one son, Mahlon James WARD born 6 Nov 1837/38 in PA or OH. Mahlon James WARD married in 1861 in <Findlay>, Hancock Co, Ohio Francis (Fannie) Emily ROBERTS b 1945 in Wyandot co, OH whose parents were Mary WAGNER born 1812 of Wyandot county, OH and John ROBERTS b est 1810 in NY. Fannie WARD had siblings named Mary ROBERTS, John JOHNSON, Susan JOHNSON & l Allen JOHNSON. Please contact: Mary K.
