Additional photographs of the Ward family may be found in A\u0026M 2267.","This subseries includes photographic prints that have curled over time and have been separated from the other photographs of this series due to preservation concerns.","This subseries includes the other photographic prints that have remained flat over time.","These negatives have been separated to secure storage.","These files were pulled by George Parkinson, former Head Curator of the WVRHC, to support the research and writing of an article he co-authored with Brooks McCabe, Jr. titled \"Charles Ward and the James Rumsey: Regional Innovation in Steam Technology on the Western Rivers.\" Included are a ribbon copy of his article, his research notes, as well as original material from the collection, such as correspondence, publications, photographs, etc. For citations of articles he coauthored, see \"Notes\" in the beginning of this inventory. Volume of the following files can vary from one to several items. Dating in this series usually refers to date of creation, sometimes content.","These documents record in detailed narrative the design features of various bids made by Ward Engineering and others for mostly towboats, but also for boilers, a cargo barge, a packet steamer, a floating drydock, a steel motor yacht, and a home for Charles E. Ward, among others.","This series includes hundreds of uncatalogued blueprints and maps, including blueprints of Ward's home in Charleston, West Virginia, various ships, locks and dams (including those completed under the Works Progress Administration), a low-rent housing project for the Huntington West Virginia Housing Authority, U.S. Corps of Engineering plans for the Ohio River, plans for the Wilson Dam in Alabama, and many other structures in West Virginia and other states and countries."],"separatedmaterial_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe glass plate negatives in boxes 5 and 6 of Series 9 were removed to secure storage.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eAn oversize portrait of Charles Ward was separated to the A\u0026amp;M oversize collection under \"A\u0026amp;M\n2298.\"\u003c/p\u003e  "],"separatedmaterial_heading_ssm":["Separated Materials"],"separatedmaterial_tesim":["The glass plate negatives in boxes 5 and 6 of Series 9 were removed to secure storage.","An oversize portrait of Charles Ward was separated to the A\u0026M oversize collection under \"A\u0026M\n2298.\""],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003ePermission to publish or reproduce is required from the copyright holder.
