If you are looking for someone who is alive, then genealogy sites will not be much help unless you know his parents names.
If he is deceased, here are the two biggest surname genealogy boards on the net for Ward:
1.
Rootsweb.com, and
2.
Genealogy.com
They're both free.
And yes, familysearch.org is an awesome site, too: also free.
If you'll give me some info about him, I'll do some searching for you where I have subscriptions.
I'd need as much of this as you know:
- full name
- birth date and place
- locations he lived at
- where and when he died
- parents names would really help if you know that
