  • Harry Marshall Ward (21 March 1854 – 26 August 1906), FRS, FLS, was a British botanist, mycologist, and plant pathologist. Born in Hereford, the eldest child of Francis and Mary Marshall Ward, Harry Ward was educated at Lincoln Cathedral school. from c. 1864. He went on to scientific studies at the South Kensington Science and Art Department under Thomas Henry Huxley in 1874. Ward then attended first Owens College, Manchester, in 1875, and subsequently Christ's College, Cambridge, from 1876 to 1879. At Cambridge, Ward achieved a B.A. with First Class honours in the Natural Sciences Tripos. Ward's education at Cambridge was funded by a wealthy fellow student from South Kensington, Louis Lucas. He also studied with leading German botanists Julius von Sachs and Anton de Bary who at the time were way ahead of the English in the field of experimental botany. From early 1880 until 1882, Ward was employed by the British government in Ceylon (modern Sri Lanka) to study the coffee rust disease affecting the island's coffee plantations. His detailed and methodical work established his reputation as a plant pathologist and physiologist and although he was unable to stop the rust in the coffee plantations of Ceylon he laid the foundations for solving the problem in the future. Ward recommended avoiding monoculture, and the cultivation of multiple strains of coffee. Ward demonstrated that disease spores could be spread on the wind and recommended growing trees between plantations to reduce this. However plantation owners in Ceylon had already destroyed many indigenous species on their plantations and planted a single type of coffee on almost every available acre. In 1883 Ward returned to Owens College as an assistant lecturer, and married his very patient fiancée Selina Mary Kingdon, who had been waiting for him since around 1870. Their first child was a daughter Winifred Mary Ward born October 1884, and on 6 November 1885 they had a son Francis Kingdon Ward. In 1885 shortly after the birth of his son he was appointed Professor of botany at the Royal Indian engineering college (Forestry department) at Cooper's hill, now part of Brunel University. He moved with his new family into a house at Englefield Green. He became F.L.S. (Fellow of the Linnaean Society) in 1886 F.R.H.S. (fellow of the Royal Horticultural Society) in 1887 and F.R.S. (Fellow of the Royal Society) in 1889. He was president of the British Mycological Society in 1900 and 1901. A great deal of his work and study was influenced by one of his early tutors, W.T. Thiselton-Dyer. It was Thiselton Dyer who suggested him for the job in Ceylon, he who largely got him his first post at Owen's College. Dyer persuaded him to spend time researching the biological processes involved in brewing ginger beer, and helped ensure his entry to the Linnaean society, his signature was on a letter to the prime minister of the day H. H. Asquith recommending a pension should be paid to his widow, Selina after his death. In 1895 he became Professor of Botany at Cambridge University, his alma mater. There was a tremendous amount of work to do with the department which had been neglected by previous incumbents. Ward worked tirelessly to get the teaching and the facilities up to scratch. His efforts culminated in a complete new building designed and equipped to his own requirements. The building was opened on 1 March 1904 by King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. There was a seven course lunch for the King and Queen and a select guest list included Thiselton Dyer. Meanwhile, he was gaining more honours and positions on committees while still researching, teaching, and administrating. All this work took its toll on his health. He was weakened further by diabetes. He died on 26 August 1906 aged only 52. He is buried in the Parish of the Ascension Burial Ground in Cambridge, with his wife; his friend Sir Francis Darwin is also buried there. (en)
  • Sir Harry Marshall Ward ( 1854 - 1906 ) fue un micólogo, fitopatólogo y naturalista inglés. Ward era aborigen de Hereford, Inglaterra, estudiando en la Escuela de la Catedral de Lincoln a partir de 1864. Ward comenzó sus estudios científicos en 1874, en South Kensington, teniendo como profesores a Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895) y a William Turner Thiselton-Dyer (1843-1928). Pasó el año 1875 en el "Colegio Owens", ancestro de la Universidad Victoria de Mánchester, y luego en Christ's College de la Universidad de Cambridge, donde estudió Ciencias naturales, de 1876 à 1879. Sus estudios en Cambridge, fueron financiados de forma anónima, por condiscípulos de South Kensington. En 1879, colabora con Julius von Sachs (1832-1897), en Wurzburgo. Hacia el fin de 1879 parte por dos años a Ceilán donde trabajó para el gobierno, fue entonces cuando se especializó en micología. Antes de su retorno a Inglaterra, pasó varios meses en el Laboratorio de Heinrich Anton de Bary (1831-1888), de Estrasburgo. En 1883, obtiene su maestría, y el mismo año se casó con Selina Mary Kingdon, teniendo una hija, Winnifred Mary Ward, y un hijo, Francis Kingdon-Ward (1885-1958) que sería también botánico. Se convirtió en profesor asistente en el Owens College. Desde 1885 y por diez años, fue profesor de botánica en el "Colegio Cooper's Hill", ahora parte de la Universidad Brunel, y luego, desde 1895 hasta su muerte, enseñó en Cambridge. Allí, Ward asume el cargo del Departamento de botánica, obteniendo la construcción de un nuevo edificio; inaugurado en 1904 por el rey Eduardo VII y por la reina Alejandra. Una gran parte de su obra y de sus estudios fueron influenciados por Dyer, que sugirió para proporcionar un puesto en Ceilán, usando su influencia para conseguir su primer trabajo a Owens, quien lo empuja a estudiar el proceso de fermentación de la Ginger beer, asistiéndolo en su entrada a la Sociedad Linneana de Londres. También la firma de Dyer se halla en una carta al primer ministro británico Herbert Henry Asquith (1852-1928) a fin de obtener una pensión a su viuda. Ward fallece de diabetes en 1906, siendo enterrado en Cambridge. (es)
