Or as there is another Henry Ward, of a similar age in the same district, is there any way to find out what the Middle initial of these 2 Henry Wards are? If any one has any suggestions, please let me know

If the Henry for whom you are looking is the one aged 13 in William Ward of Z's household in 1850, then he was born about 1837. The Z in this case stands for Ezekiel. There was another William Ward in Brinkley's who was of "of E", or Elijah. Ezekiel Ward died in 1866, with a will, and names a son Henry, no initial. William was licensed to marry Patty Daughterty in Somerest County on 23 August 1825. He is found in the Lawson's District, Roachville P.O. in 1860.
