Male, #837, (say 1700 - )

| Marriage* | He married Elizabeth Culpepper at Norfolk Co., Virginia. | |
| Biography* | Although the verdict is still out, and Ward family researchers have differing opinions, this writer wonders if Elizabeth Culpepper's husband might have been John Ward. This would have been the John Ward who was in Norfolk Co. VA in 1728, when he and Elizabeth sold 107 acres on the NE side of Simons Creek on the West Branch to William and Richard Price. This land was adjacent to the land William Ellis bought from John's brother Joseph Ward. The land being sold was purchased by John Ward from Roger Bryant. Witnesses were Tamer Spivey, Elizabeth Spivey, and John Lockhart (Norfolk Deeds, Bk. G, p. 105-6). He appears on a June 1736 tithable list for the Western Branch with his brother Joseph Ward. There are no surviving tithable lists for Norfolk County from 1737-1749. He does not appear in the 1750 list, however, his son (or brother) Joseph Ward is still in Norfolk in 1750, living near the Culpeppers. . Further research is needed on John's brother, Joseph, as perhaps his wife was also named Elizabeth, and perhaps Joseph might have been the one who married Elizabeth Culpepper. |
