The William Ford Society

Litttle is known of William Ford while he resided in Maryland, his native state. He moved with his family to Fauquier County, Virginia just before the Revolutionary War and lived there until 1801 when he again moved with his family to what was the wilderness of Monongalia County, Virginia. In 1844, this area became Taylor County, now a part of West Virginia.
