I have found a listing for him in ROWAN COUNTY, NC - WILLS - PROBATE: Index to Testators, Volume G (1797-1819) page 438. Does anyone have access to this resource who would be willing to look it up for me? I believe this is William Ball Sr. who may have married Elizabeth "Betty" Debord. Finding a will or probate record could finally answer some questions about children. Help would be much appreciated.

With a skill that marked him out as a man of foresight, he selected,, entered, or purchased a body of land containing not less than four thousand acres, the richest in Rowan County. It lay up and down Third Creek from the church to Neely's old mill, a distance of three or four miles, and included the mountain mentioned before. He chose for his residence a spot about two hundred yards from Third Creek, on land now belonging to Mrs. John Graham, not far from the site of the church. The first grant of his is dated March 25, 1752, and is for three hundred and forty acres, from Earl Granville. This was before the County of Rowan was formed, and the land is described as lying on "Third Creek, County of Anson." In 1756, Michael Dickson, weaver, sold to Samuel Young, planter, five hundred and twenty-five acres on the north side of Third Creek. p. 218 THE SALISBURY CHURCH The town of Salisbury lies between the settlements of the Scotch-Irish and the "Pennsylvania Dutch" or Germans. To the east and south lay the great body of the German settlers; and to the north and west the Scotch-Irish predominated. The population of the town was a mixture of these two races, interspersed with Englishmen, Frenchmen, pure Irish and Scotch. Among the early inhabitants we find a good many names that are suggestive of Presbyterian affinities. These people had no church of their own, but such as were church members belonged to Thyatira. Dr. McCorkle, having married the daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth Steele, the half-sister of Gen. John Steele, was early brought into connection with the Salisbury people, and frequently preached in the courthouse, or in the Lutheran Church, as most convenient. In 1803-04, Dr. James McRee, of Center Church, preached in Salisbury once a month, and from 1807 to 1809, the Rev. John Brown, D. D., was principal of an Academy in Salisbury, and preached regularly there one-half of his time, giving the other half to Thyatira. This was during the time that Dr. McCorkle was prostrated by paralysis. Dr. Brown was called to the presidency of the South Carolina College, and afterwards became president of Athens College, Georgia, and there ended his life. Between the years of 1809 and 1819, the Rev. Samuel L. Graham, the Rev. Parsons O. Hays, and perhaps others, preached for a while in Salisbury. During all this time there were not enough Presbyterian Church members in Salisbury to justify an organization; at least, such was the opinion of these members and visiting preachers. p. 298 FIFTH REGIMENT INFANTRY COMPANY E Officers Samuel Reeves, Capt.; en.

Hope you're still searching. I'm sorry, but I am afraid I cannot be helpful to you. I am hoping you might help me. Family tradition indicates that Alexander and Sarah (no maiden name) had a daughter, Jean, who married John Graham in 1786. Did William have a sister named Jean? Can you confirm this daughter or this marriage? And might you have anything on John Graham, who is in my line? Many thanks in advance.
