I think you will discover that someone in the past made a slight error.I am not a Ball descendant but I have a copy of a manuscript compiled by Margaret Lester Hill, CGRS, for the Mary Ball Washington Museum & Library, Inc. in Lancaster, VA, 1990. It concerns the Ball Families of Va's Northern Neck.You might be able to purchase a copy of this from the above.
