Correspondence added August 24, 2008 Passengers #20-22 WARD

I am a direct descendent of the immigrant family previously stated. The family settled in an area south of present day Kentville, Nova Scotia, Canada. Additional children born to this family includes a son William, which is my genealogical link to the William and Elizabeth Ward family. This web site information states the Ship Master's name is unknown, my research states otherwise.
