I don't find a William Estes Ward, Vikki, but my 15 pages of Wards given to me by another cousin lists Wards born before 1850, so he's a little recent for my list. After that, my line goes on to the DeLongs. Had you followed back to James Ward (b.1672) of Ireland?

I LOVE finding cousins. Will be in touch. Vikki P.S. Can we help Samantha out with William Estes Ward by chance. I don't have him in my list and I even looked on others. For a repeat of the record he was born Nov. 20th 1852 in (maybe) Arkansas. He had daughters show up in the Cass Co., TX, 1880 census. Cass Co. borders Arkansas. Wish there was more...
