John WARD of Newark in the Province of East New Jersey, in his will dated May 2, 1695 and proved September 20, 1695, names his wife Abigail; his eldest son John WARD, under age, who is to receive upland and meadow given by my Honored father in law Mr. Henery LYON unto my former wife as a dowery; my two sons Jonathan

The will of John Ward was probated Sept. 1695. He had died May 5, 1695. In the will he bequeathed to his son, John, the dower given to Mary by her father, Henry, Lyon. In 1696 Henry Lyon deeded John his six acre lot in the town of Newark. When John died, he left no will. His wife Martha, refused to administer his estate and in Jan 1745 his son, Lemuel, was appointed administrator. John's wife, Martha, is believed to have been Martha Johnson, d/o Joseph and Rebecca (Pierson) Johnson. She was probably, but not positively, mother of Lemuel Ward.
