26 FEB 2022 Shows linkages to two sons named John; the one for Wiley John Ward is the correct one; incorrect linkage has to be changed from manager of that child's memorial.~Born, Cherokee Nation East; s/o John Jack Ward & Catherine McDaniel (Cherokee); husband of Lucy Mayes, buried here. Parents of 11 children. Family history recorded (that) George was killed in (the) Civil War by "Pin" Indians invading his Indian land. [NOTE: I think the emphasis the creator of the memorial intended to make with regard to "Indian Land," was made here to illustrate that this was an instance of a renegade band of Native Americans who killed a fellow Native American and had entered up on to his land, as opposed to being killed by one of the two military factions of the Civil War, which has been well documented.]
