Wilfred S Burchell, Q.C., 59, one of Cape Breton's best known lawyers, died suddenly Tuesday night at the family residence, 100 St. Peter's Road. Although ailing for several months, Mr. Burchell's death was unexpected. Born in Joggins Mines, he came to Sydney at an early age. He was educated in North Sydney and graduated from Dalhousie Law School. He practised law in Truro before moving here in 1950. Mr. Burchell was an ardent member of the Liberal Party and held many key posts with the party through the years. His election predictions were sought by newspapermen for many years and he usually was correct. Before his illness, he was a member of the Rotary Club and the Royal Cape Breton Yacht Club. He was a member of First United Church. A son of the late Mr. & Mrs. George B Burchell, he is survived by his widow; two sons: George, with the RCMP in Gander; John, Ottawa; and a daughter: Grace, now in Switzerland. Two brothers: David, Bras d'Or; and Ralph, Westmount, and a sister: Mrs. Duncan MacAskill, Halifax, also survive. The body is resting at the Fillmore Funeral Home. Funeral arrangements are incomplete. No flowers by request.Donations may be made to the Canadian Heart Foundation.

4255 • On the Yorkshire Administrations inquisitions post mortem, his name is spelled 'Raiph' instead of Ralph. Some research on the subject indicates that this was an old British 'upper class' spelling of Ralph.

I think it is possible that this Ralph Ward is the Ralph Ward b. 1577 in Monkton, near Ripon whose parents were John Ward and Jenet (Jane?) Sawkelth. There is no trace found of him later in that area, so he could very well be the Ralph Ward who ends up in East Layton. It's only a 45 minute drive today.
You can view my Ward lineage 'theory' on my website at https://ginsgenes.me/tree/showmedia.php?mediaID=191



Note: There was also a James Ward of East Layton buried at Forcett 14 Aug 1654 Could have been either a son or brother. 
WARD, Ralph (I8971)
