Sgt. John Ward immigrated from England with his mother, Joyce. He moved to Branford, CT, probably with his sister's family, who were in Branford in 1641. In 1649, John married Sarah Lyman, the daughter of Richard Lyman. John married second,
post-1684, Hannah (Crane) Huntington, widow of Thomas. She was the daughter of Jasper and Alice Crane. John was among the founders of Newark, settling there in 1666. He worked as a carpenter and his first property was Lot 6A, between Broad and
Washington Streets, below the park, in present-day Newark. By 1679, he owned 122 acres in eight parcels. When he died, he seems to have owned about 250 acres in the Newark area. In 1673, he became a lieutenant for the Newark militia. He also
