My grandmother (Pearl's daughter-in-law, in other words) is 91 years old, and she knew Pearl well. In fact, Pearl died in her house. My grandmother knows about Pearl, and about the rest of the Ball family. Pearl's first husband was William Marion Weems, and it is that marriage from which we are descended. After William died, Pearl remarried Sam Ball and had Mary and Martha (twins) Ball, and David Ball. My grandmother knew them all, and my mother knew Mary, Martha, and David. I know they can tell you things and would be happy to. In fact, we have at least 3 pictures of Pearl. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
