Hoping that someone here may be researching this family. Any information would be
appreciated.
1880 census-Center Twp., Ripley County Indiana page 377A
Josiah A. Ward b. abt. 1821 in Kentucky
Mary E. Ward b. abt. 1847 in Indiana
probably married about 1866
Children:
Mary A. Ward b. abt. 1867 Indiana
Elizabeth Ward b. abt. 1870 Indiana
Joseph Ward b. abt. 1872 Indiana
Martha J. Ward b. abt. 1876 Indiana
John Ward b. abt. 1878 Indiana
I found Joseph Ward in the 1900 census married to Katie (nee unknown at this time) but
could not locate the other children to this family.
It seems that possibly the same Josiah A. Ward was in a hopital in Washington DC (1900
census) and was listed as Widowed.
Prior to 1880, this family was found in the 1870 census in Warren Twp., Putnam County,
Indiana.
Thank you for your time,
Laurie Carpenter
