Sarah Bell-d/o Henry Bell-d. 1695 Lancaster Co.. Their dau. Katherine Ball mar. Abraham Bledsoe, his first wife.This comes from a lawsuit in July 1698 ( after the death of Henry Bell . The action of debt brought by Wm. Ballof Richard Ball executor of Capt. Wm. Ball, deceased and FFranciso FForizal--next for---Wm. Ball to produce his fathers books, the business depending at Catherine Ball & Thomas Ball. so on &so on. In the info i have he is called the forgotten Ball.

His ancestors were from Middlesex County, Virginia. There were several Edward Ball men. My Edward Ball is DEFINITELY from Fauquier County, Virginia. His grand parents did come from Middlesex County, Virginia it is true. Please look at the N for notes on the link I sent. You will see the documentation that I have on Edward Ball and Lettetia Bailey. The records that I have show that he served in the War of 1812 at Fort Meigs Ohio where he died. He was from Fauquier County, Virginia. Thanks for All you do. I am descended from both Ball families of Lancaster County, Virginia and Middlesex County, Virginia. Jim Ball of the Ball Park web site is the real expert on the Ball family of Middlesex County, Virginia. Here is the non working link for Jim Ball's web site. Jim if you are out there please join this conversation. thanks Jim Burgess www.virginiasurnames.com -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Craig Kilby Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2011 4:33 PM To: Northern Neck Northern Neck List Subject: [VA-NORTHERN-NECK] Edward Ball Family of Middlesex County All, For reasons I do not understand, this was bounced back to me as list administrator, but when I click on the link (don't bother, you need the password), it doesn't show me the usual reasons why a message is bounced (non-subscriber, too long, etc) All that being said, Jim: This definitely sounds like the Edward Ball family of Middlesex County. They are not related to the Ball family of Lancaster County. I don't quite figure out what the connection is to any War of 1812 service, but that's why we start topics and threads. We have two large notebooks of extensive research on the Edward Ball family at the Mary Ball Washington Museum & Library. These are mainly in the form of notes and family group sheets, not a compiled genealogy that spells it all for you. You are most welcome to come visit us there (mbwm.org) or send an email to the library from the home page>catalog site and our volunteers will be happy to help you. Please be sure to read the policies for copying, postage, and research within the library.
