That later turned into greater animosity at each brush with danger that Tom's job entails.
He was married to a woman named Ellie and they had two children together, a daughter named Mary and a son named Matthew.
Jack was also afraid of Tom being a spook as he told Tom only to come when it was day and leave before dark due to the chances of being attacked by witches.
He has inherited the Ward Farm from his father, and consequently he has the job of upholding the farm and passing it onto his son, inkeeping with family tradition.
He does have animosity, anger and is downright jealousy of Tom. It is showas as he's constantly belittling Tom as if his mother's choices are his fault let alone his career. He's manipulative and angry which sometimes leads to violence & if Ellie wasn't there he would have hit Tom more than once.
