Not adding much to the help so far offered but in Jay Pfahl's site he notes that Ward was "an English orchid Enthusiast 1800s" which could mean that he wasn't a professional and maybe not someone whose name is likely to be found in publications. In other words, not a big orchid name (?) Jay Pfahl doesn't quote his source but maybe a quey to him might help. John Stanley
