Not sure if I'm the person that you're asking about my name or not, but I did post a question last night about the Chapman/Ball line. My name is David Wallace. My mother is Elizabeth Ball Wallace, born in Milton, WV and her father was Uel Broaddus Ball descended from Charles Garrett Ball. Her mother was Bertha Jackson descended from Lewis Lincoln Jackson descended from Thomas Francis Jackson. My parents have been doing some family hunting for a bit, and I've started it in the past year. I am also looking at the Rece line as they were the maternal line for Uel Broaddus Ball, and Petit line for the maternal line of Bertha Jackson.
