FORD COLLINS SHERWOOD in Roath, Cardiff

Does anyone have connections with the following:

John FORD, born Canning Town, Essex between 1866 and 1871, moved to Cardiff around 1903, when he was listed as being a Private in the Royal Eastern Reserve of Cardiff

John married Annie Eliza COLLINS on 18 April 1897 in Plumstead, Kent. Annie was born on 18 April 1875 in Cirencester. Her family (parents William and Annie, nee BOND) moved to the Roath parish of Cardiff between 1880 and 1885. John's wife Annie died in Cardiff at the Union Workhouse on 15 January 1903, following the birth of her fourth child.

Their three previous children were:
(1) John William FORD, born June 1898 in Woolwich (Kent). Died there on 15 November 1898.

(2) George Arthur FORD, born 5 July 1899 in Woolwich/East Plumstead. May have moved to Australia in 1950's

(3) Ada Pretoria FORD, born 21 September 1900 in Woolwich.
Married Martin Edward SHERWOOD on 22 November 1924, in Cardiff. Martin was born in Cardiff in 1904. Father James SHERWOOD, a boilermaker. The two children of Ada and Edward were born in Cardiff: Nancy P SHERWOOD, born in 1925, and Martin J SHERWOOD, born 1927.

John probably married again, but I haven't been able to identify his wife or any other children.

I've tracked the other COLLINS offspring, following their move to Cardiff, and they married into a range of families: PENNY, WOOLDRIDGE, TAYLOR, DOOLEY and McMULLEN.

I'm happy to share the information I have, but it's the FORD family I'm mainly interested in, if anyone can provide a link with their descendents, or John Ford's immediate family.
