Hi .......
I am new to this list ,could any one help me with my family of Ward.please.

I would like to make contact with the descendents of ALFRED THOMAS WARD.[Lithopaper printer]
Born 1849......Newcastle u .Lyme Staffs.
married.......Susanna Stokes.....[born approx 1851,,Coventry.......[silkwinder]
marr........Holy Trinty...Coventry........May 12th 1872.
Known addresses,,,,,,,,,,,

1881 census.......16 South street.
Eight children were born .in Coventry.................names .......

MARY E. WARD....JOHN S. WARD....ALFRED T. WARD...ANNIE WARD.....REBECCA WARD.
GEORGE WARD.....ALICE J. WARD....

On the 1891 census they were living at STOKE KNOB . parish of St Chads church.
all the eight children appear on this census .

By 1911...........they were living at BULLS HEAD..NO 32. STOKE GREEN.
ALFRED THOMAS.[SENIOR] was a shopkeeper, with a sub post office.

I have no information on any of the children .I would suspect the girls married locally , but to whom .??
I feel sure that there has to be connections still in Coventry with this Ward family .
I have a wealth of history concerning Alfred Thomas [sen] background .his mother and variouse half sisters .
plus some family pictures ............
If any one with any info ,how ever small I would be delighted to hear from them .......................

Alfred Thomas .[sen].worked for THOMAS BUSHHILL. one of the Midlands first factory to introduce
the lithographic method of printing...in Coventry. he worked there for 50 years..

Thank you for any help.................regards Barbara...............
