" Mr. Augustus Henry Ward's return address is 14 Washington Place New York dated June 1st 1857. <br /> <br /> It begins "I beg leave to inform you that Horatio Wards Esq. now of London for several years has given a great deal of his time to researches in the origin and early history of OUR race and has it engrossed in only two manuscript books beginning with the year 1130 and coming down to our day thus embracing the prominent families in England of our name for this long period and of some of their Descendants in the United States to which there will be much added by the proposed publication." Further- "As it will comprise so many of the Ward families of England many of their descendants in this country will be able to find the genealogy of their ancestors therein. as the author has done of HIS family viz. the Wards of Westchester County N.Y. descendants of Andrew Ward who landed in 1632 with Gov. Winthrop. "<br /> <br /> The third piece is a smaller preprinted form for subscribers to return to him by June 1857 which is a blank form. Indeed OCLC does not appear to have a copy recorded; perhaps it was privately published and is not held in a library; or possibly never published.
