Matthias Ward (October 13, 1805 – October 5, 1861) was a lawyer and United States Senator from Texas.

Early life

Matthias Ward was born on October 13, 1805, in Elbert County, Georgia.[1] Ward was raised in Madison County, Alabama.[citation needed] He attended an academy in Huntsville, Alabama, taught school and studied law.[1] In 1836 he settled in Bowie, Texas, moving to Clarksville, Texas in 1845 and later to Jefferson, Texas.[citation needed]

Career

Ward served in the seventh and eighth congresses of the Republic of Texas and later in the state senate as a Democrat from 1849 to 1850.[1] This was followed by unsuccessful campaigns for lieutenant governor in 1851 and United States Congress in 1855. In 1855, he ran with a proslavery and states-right campaign against Lemuel D. Evans.[1]

Upon J. Pinckney Henderson’s death in 1858, Ward was appointed to replace him in the United States Senate. He served from September 27, 1858, to December 5, 1859.[1] He failed to secure the nomination to run for the seat in election the next year.[citation needed]

Personal life

Ward died on October 5, 1861, in Warm Springs, North Carolina. He was buried Old Cemetery in Nashville, Tennessee.[1]
