hi pal,
wonder if james ward ever married mary ann kane?
it was a complicated search as mary ann kane married james mckinlay!!
anyway...james ward looks to be the son of john ward and sarah ann hay, mary ann kane looks to be the daughter of agnes and was born in ireland.
john ward married sarah ann hay in the gorbals, 3/10/1853
