Hi, Well, My Ward line either has to fit in there somewhere or it is another one altogether. Mine came over the America in 1661 to either MD or VA. I have him being transported by Ambrose Dixon and family. But cant find what ship or where he came in. Im leaning towards VA because of what is stated in OLD SOMERSET OF THE EASTERN SHORE OF MD. I know he was born in Northamptonshire, Eng in 1638 and that is all. Have plenty on him after 1665.
