John Q.A. Ward House
The John Q.A. Ward House is a historic house in Urbana, Ohio, United States. Located along College Street on the city's western side,〔 it was built in 1820 by William Ward as a wedding present for his son, John A. Ward. Here John lived for the rest of his life.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 1. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 124.〕
John A. Ward's son, John Quincy Adams Ward, was the namesake of the house. A sculptor, the youngest Ward was known for multiple carvings of the Marquis de Lafayette, George Washington, and Oliver Hazard Perry.〔
The Ward House itself is historically significant for its early architecture. Based on a stone foundation, the brick house is a two-story structure built in an "L" plan.〔 This well-preserved architecture, together with its connection to John Q.A. Ward, led to the house's addition to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.〔
