The house was set aside for Margaret Catharine (Adams) Ward for her lifetime.
Of the four children who grew to adulthood in the house, Aude L. Ward, the youngest son, remained at home after his marriage to Lula Henson in the 1910s, and the couple made their home here until 1931. Most of this time Margaret (Adams) Ward lived with the couple; however, in the late 1920s she fell and broke her hip.
She went to live with her daughter Bessie and her husband who
were then occupying a house in the yard of Simon Ward's house which was known in the family as the "Nancy house" and had probably been built for Simon Ward's daughter, Nancy (Ward) Creed.
In 1931 there were further changes in the occupation of the house Aude L. Ward and his wife left the Ward family house and relocated to a farm about a mile and a half to the west where he lived until his death in 1986.
That same year Margaret (Adams) Ward returned to the family house and remained here until ther death in 1941.
