The pictures shown on this page is a statue erected in the cemetery at Urbana, Ohio and identified as John Ward on this website. It is not, however, a statue of "White Wolf." The statue was sculpted by John Quincy Adams Ward who lived in Urbana and marks his grave, not that of "White Wolf." John Quincy Adams Ward was the grandson of William Ward, the founder of Urbana and is buried next to him in Urbana. John "White Wolf" Ward was the brother of William Ward and was killed on Paint Creek near Bainbridge, Ohio by a party of whites that included his own brother James Ward. His grave was never identified to my knowledge, since he lived and died as a Shawnee.
