    William Ward was one of the first men to reach Tennessee in the later 1700's. William Ward had over 1,000 acres of land on Brush Creek, adjoining Dungan, where he lived for several years before he moved to Carter County. He sold part of his land to Jeseph Morrison in 1803, and his son-in-law, Christian Stover, Jr. received another tract from him. Ward had a large family of girls. Several lived in Carter County and others moved west. His sister, Mary Ward, married Isaac Lincoln of Carter County who also had a land grant on Brush Creek. Christian Stover, Jr. sold out and moved to Missouri. At the time of his death William owned 1200 acres of land on lower southwest Brush Creek.

    William Ward of Brush Creek is sometimes confused with Dr. William Ward who practived medicine in Washington County, Tennessee during the 1790's. Dr. Ward, who apparently lived near Leesburg moved to Rutherford County, Tennessee, about 1795 and later died there.
