Biography
John Ford is a part of US Black heritage.
John was born in 1896. He was the son of Thaddeus Ford. He passed away in 1987.
Notes
I believe John William Ford is a direct male descendant, a great-grandson, of West "Duncan" Ford 1784-1863. West Ford is a former slave and may be the son of President George Washington, or one of his brothers.
