Mildred Ward (b. February 15, 1796, d. July 19, 1873)
Notes for Mildred Ward:
Mildred Wards fathers name in Kentucky is Jacob Ward jr.They are on the 1800 Scott, CO tax roll.
I discovered that her father/ mother was Jacob & Sally (Quinn) Ward. Jacob was s/o Jacob Ward & Anne Hill. of Culpeper, CO VA.
A copy of John's will maybe found in Huntsville courthouse. page 432-33- 443-44. Mildred & John were intestate. administered first by Mildred 2nd by Wm. E. Ferguson. May 7th 1873. Counter filed by her son Owen Henry Bagby.I did not find a will or probate record on Mildred.
Mildred & John were married Sept 23- 1813 by Thomas Henderson who was in 1813 the superintendent of Choctaw Academy. Great Crossing & preacher at Stamping Ground Baptist Church. In 1814 they had a Family Bible made by Wm. W. Woodward of Philadelphia, PA.
I do not know if any descendants have this bible. It may be the only document with the name of John's father listed.
Mildred does not have a marker for her grave in Roanoke Cemetery. Everyone says she is their but why is she not on Randolph/Howard CO. death index & lists.
She died in the home of her daughter. Last census, (1870) has her living in home place with one daughter & her son Jacob M. Bagby.

Marriage Notes for Mildred Ward and John Bagby:
It would seem that Mildred misplaced their marriage license. When Mildred applied for her widow pension ( war 1812) she wrote to an Atty. in Georgetown KY. He replied that the Court house in Georgetown, KY. had burned (1837) down destroying all records. When applying for license pension & military record, she used John Bagby, Mildred Ward.
No middle name or initial. (All found documents) These documents can be found in National Archives.
