Hi there, I'm researching my mums family tree (Ward) and I'm getting bogged down with her grandparents. Her Dad was Thomas Arthur William Ward, whose father was George Maddison Ward born about 1887. According to the marriage certificate George's father was a coal miner named William Ward. However at this point everything gets cold. I'm interested in what happened to William (Maddison) as he seems to be a potential candidate for Grandad's grandad. All other potentials seem to too old, too far away and not explaining the name Maddison. Regards Brian Reiter |
