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.
