Best Answer

Ward is one of the great surnames of Britain. Deriving from the pre 1066 Norman era, in England it was an occupation name for a civil guard or keeper of the watch. The original coat of arms was born by Sir John Warde of Surrey, at the siege of Calais in 1345. This had the blazon of a blue field charged with a gold cross flory, and is one of the most ancient of all 'arms' on record. The surname was one of the first in the new American Colonies, as John Ward of Virginia was recorded in 1624. The first record of the family name is shown to be that of William de la Warda, which was dated 1176.
