John's father was William Ward, born in Ireland and a veteran of the Napoleonic Wars, having served at Waterloo.[2] He married Elizabeth Jones. He and his wife had a daughter, Ella E. Ward, born 28 March 1861 in Mount Holly, Pennsylvania.[3][4]

Research Notes

The following census record may, or may not, be for the John and Elizabeth Ward who were Ella Ward's parents. If it is, Ella seems to have shaved a few years off her age.
