      Walnut

      WILLIAM WARD and family came from Pendleton county, Virginia, in the spring of 1802. The family consisted of his wife and seven children; a married daughter remaining behind. They came to Wheeling by wagon, and thence on a flat boat to Portsmouth. From Portsmouth they journeyed, through the almost trackless forest, with team and wagon. Ward settled on three hundred acres in section seventeen, and moved into a cabin until then occupied by William Buck, a squatter, who vacated on the arrival of Ward. The daughter, Elizabeth, with her family, came out about a year afterward, and remained about two years on section eight, when they returned to Virginia. The other children were Charles, William, Robert, Mary, James, George, and Richard. Charles, William, George, and Robert settled in Fairfield county. Mary died unmarried. James married Elizabeth Brobst, and settled on a part of the old homestead. He died in 1863. Four of his sons live in this township --- William, Peter, Josiah, and Daniel. Richard Ward married Mary Route, and settled on the old homestead. Two sons - William Harvey and Sidner J.. - are at present residing in Walnut.
      In 1803 John Morris moved in and settled on a quarter section in number thirty-three, the farm being now owned by Johnson Bowman. The only settler then in this portion of the township was James Martin, who adjoined him on the north. Morris occupied his original location until his death. A son - Ezekiel - resides in Washington, aged seventy-eight years, and James in Walnut. John died June 5, 1877, and his widow occupies the farm.
