I know many of you have researched the Ball family. I am not attempting to conect us to Mary Ball. I'm just trying to research OUR family. There was a Levi Ball who died in 1807 in Worcester Co., MD. Does anyone have him in your line or research? Did he own land in Worcester Co.? I know that he married Elizabeth Mills, widow of Robert Mills after Aug. 1788 in Worcester Co. Please decipher this for me. Levi Ball died intestate. The settlement of his estate says: John Ball, Samuel Ball and Levi Ball gives administration to brother Christopher Ball. Elizabeth Ball, widow of Levi Ball gives administration to Christopher Ball. Administrator, Christopher Ball. Bonds, John R. Slocomb and Joseph Stevenson. JBR349. Is this saying that John, Samuel, Levi, and Christopher are children of Levi Ball who died in 1807? I'm confused because Stratton Nottingham's Soldiers and Sailors of the Eastern Shore of Va in the Rev. War states: Christopher Ball, John Ball, Samuel Ball, Levi Ball, William Ball and Elizabeth Richardson are the only heirs at law of James Ball and Seger Ball who were soldiers in the VA Continental Line in the Rev. War. I cannot find anything about Seger/Segar/Seeger, etc. Ball. I would appreciate any directions. Clare
