Brandy, I hope my post was not misleading. I do not know of any WARDs of mine that ended up in CA other than descendants James HICKEY and Minerva "Callie" WARD. What I am trying to say is I don't know of any WARD names in CA. I could not resist the tombstone info because it really was beautiful and I thought it might help someone out there.
