William Ward b abt 1798 in Ireland

Is there anyone out there looking for a Ward family member, namely William, (who arrived in Sundury County, Burton Parish, Oromocto New Brunswick Canada abt 1818), and likely left Ireland around 1817/18?

His earliest mention was on a Land Petition in 1820 as a "native of Ireland" along with 2 McKinney boys, George and Michael, also native of Ireland.

I have posted in Parish Addergoole, Galway County as I had heard that it has a large population of Roman Catholic Wards, although family lore in New Brunswick has him from County Cork. He died in 1847, young, and it appears that him Irish roots died along with him. Through to this day, all New Brunswick Wards from this line list their heritage as Irish, so it was certainly passed down the line.

A long shot!
