In reply to:
George Ward m. Grace LaBar

Information about the marriage of Grace LaBar to George WARD, of Easton,
Northampton County, PA would be appreciated. Trying to determine if
this George WARD is one from our WARD family from the same county.
On page 226 of John Humphrey's book, Pennsylvania Births,
Northampton County, 1733-1800 is the following for WARTH.
George6April 1800AdamSusanna
There are spelling variations/errors that include Warth, Wart, and
Ward, and the listed individuals are actually from the WARD families.
Adam Ward and his wife, Susanna are buried in Easton, PA.
Adam Ward is one of the sons of our earliest ancestors, Benjamin
and Barbara Ward, who can be traced back to the late 1700s,
at least, in Plainfield Township, Northampton County, PA.

Reuben H. LaBar married Catherine Paff, and they were the parents of three children: Oliver, of further mention; Grace, married George Ward, of Easton, Pennsylvania; and Laura, who died aged sixteen years.
More information is available on this WARD family from Chapter 25,
"Descendants of Benjamin and Barbara Ward," in Charles M. Sandwick's
1985 book, "Jacobsburg, A Pennsylvania Community and It People."
