Note from Jean Hides (Jan 2002)

 

I think that Joseph Cornelius Ward must have died in October 1951. I can remember being on the Isle of Wight with my mum looking after your mum when you were born. We received a telegram to ring home and my dad told us of granddad Ward's death in Barnsley. So it must have happened shortly after your birth. I remember going to Wootton School with Elaine whilst we were on the island. Isn't it odd how memories stay with you!!!!

 

Joseph Cornelius' death was reported by Kathleen M. Watts (daughter) who was present at his death
