This page represents the first marriage of William Ward. He is said to have emigrated to New England with his second wife Elizabeth and five children. Language in his 1686 will provides evidence that these first five were children by his first wife. Therefore only these five are attached to the first marriage.

There are also multiplate candidates for the name of his first wife. Please use this talk page to discuss available evidence for her name.

Please use caution and citation of quality sources prior to making any changes to wive's names.
