Dean Richard Hobart Writes coming up from below (the present) merging some duplicates, it got to this guy, who is now locked to Ephraim Ward and Mary Haven, which conforms with FamilySearch -- but his death date is later and he only married Abigail Craft
(according to https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/LT9F-48J/john-ward-1735-1781

But wikitree has 2 separate Johns born of the same day (twins). the one who died later with Abigail and the one who died early with Mary. Maybe it was John and Jonathan? Or maybe someone has the husband's parents of either Abigail or Mary wrong

and Find a Grave has Mary
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/175926343/john_ward

other places seem to be mix between the two.

https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/LT9F-48J/john-ward-1735-1781 & https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ward-18310 are correct for the Newton man.

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/175926343/john_ward Has correct details for the Dorchester man who went to Maine but link him to the wrong parents.

Clarification: Dea. Ephraim Ward didn’t marry himself. He had 2 wives with similar names, but all but one of his children were with his 2nd wife, Mary (Haven) (Stone) Ward

Unfortunately, we have a Y DNA problem. The profile for John Ward, of Newton shows a propagated haplogroup of E M35. But he’s a descendant of William Ward, of Sudbury & Marlborough which is R-M269.

The Y 37 test, E-M35 was linked on geni by Private and the kit was added by Private User who is inactive. So, I’ll try and find a cut point. On his ancestor report, there are several generations with no details between Aaron Ward and Joseph Ward

Nelson Ward Was a son of Aaron & shows as the earliest ancestor here:

WARD #6
Nelson Ward 1816-1874 Gallia county Ohio United States E-Z16659

Profile details for Phineas Ward, Sr. & Phineas Ward, Jr. had been erased. I reverted, and now it seems that we do not have evidence presented that Aaron was the father of Nelson Ward

Detached.
