<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 67261, member: 59&quot;]According to all the public trees (and there are quite a few) that cover what appears to be the Orson L Ward in those military records, Orson L Ward was born in Poultney, Vermont. They cite (and have attached) the 1850 Census when Orson was 17 and working on the family farm. His father was already deceased.</p><p><br /></p><p>None of them have any other records for him (besides the military records) past that date - and many say he died 1870 or so, without corroborating records. Those that give a location all seem to say California.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
