    Notes:

    William Ball was born in 1615, studied law in London and served in the Royal Army in the Civil Wars under Charles I. With the regicide in 1650, he lost the greater part of his English estates and fled to Virginia. He had married Hannah Atherall (Atherold) 2 July 1638 in London and immigrated to Virginia with his wife and three children--Hannah, Joseph, and William. He did not apply for a land grant in Virginia for eight years, waiting for the restoration of the 1660 Stuart kings. He settled in Narrow Neck (now Ball Point) on the west side of the Corrotoman River in 1663. Ball operated the vessel Merchant between England and Virginia as a tobacco merchant. He acquired 2000 acres in Virginia, served on an Indian peace-treaty council, and administered Lancaster County affairs as a Colonel. He built a Georgian mansion, Millenbeck, and led the defense of the county to help quell Bacon's Rebellion. One of his land grants for 300 acres adjoined the land of Daniel Fox, who married his daughter Hannah. He was a Warden of Christ Church in Lancaster and also owned land in Rappahannock County. He served as a Burgess from 1699-1173 and was George Washington's great grandfather. ? He died at Millenbeck in 1680 and left his estate to his wife and two sons.

    THE BALL FAMILY FROM THE MT. VERNON LIBRARY:
    The Ball family line connects to George Washington through his maternal lineage. The first member of the Ball family to come to America was George Washington's great-grandfather, William Ball (1615- c.1680).
    In Virginia, Ball began acquiring land, engaging in commerce, and taking part in colonial politics. He served as a major in the militia of Lancaster County, Virginia, and as a member of the House of Burgesses from 1668 until 1676 and again from 1676 to 1677. During this time period, Ball had dealings with John Washington, George Washington's paternal great-grandfather.
    The four children of William Ball and Hannah Atherold were Richard Ball (died in Maryland in 1677), William Ball (II) of Virginia, Hannah Ball (later the wife of Colonel David Fox, and Joseph Ball (1649-1711). ========================================================
    WILLIAM BALL IMMIGRATION RECORDS FROM LANCASTER COUNTY:
    William's earliest immigration date was recorded in Lancaster County, VA-24 OCT 1653. Certificate granted to Capt. Henry Fleet for importation of 21 people, including William Ball. (DB 1, p. 89)
    Lancaster County, VA-19 MAY 1657. Certifcate for land issued to William Ball for transporting himself four times and for transporting Hugh Davys and Richard Ball once. (Orders 1656-1666, p. 16, Sparacio, p. 10).
    Lancaster County, VA-2 JUN 1657. Land Patent to Domick Theriott of Lancaster County, land on Clapham's Creek and adjacent to Edwin Conway, due for importation of 32 persons, including William Ball four times and Richard Ball. (PB 4, p. 102.) These were probably some of the same headrights named in the certificate issued to William Ball above, and apparently sold by William Ball to Domick Theriott.
    Ancestry.com File #27291 indicates place of birth as Wiltshire, England and place of death as Plantation "Millenbeck", Lancaster County, Virginia. This file also gives surname of wife as ATHEROLD. [LDK]

    Colonel William BALL probably left England soon after the death of King Charles I, circa 1650. [SOURCE: #27291 Ancestry.com]

    President George Washington directly descends from Col. William Ball. The Chesebro's descend from Col. William Ball's son Richard Ball. The Chesebro's relationship to George Washington from the Ball family is 4th cousin X times removed depending on their generation beginning with Lawrence Edmund Chesebro', Jr., November 13, 1937. [SOURCE: Larry Chesebro']

    Immigrated in April 1635 from England to Virginia in the ship "Planter". {Must have returned to England} Evidence shows that he married (in London, England) 2 July 1638 to Hannah Atherold. He was a soldier "under Fairfax", and served in the Royal Army and took part in the {English} Civil Wars, remaining true to the royal standards & serving faithfully under the banners of the ill-fated King Charles. When the Royal Army was defeated, Colonel Ball lost the greater part of his considerable estates. In company with other royalists he fled to Virginia, the most loyal of the king's possessions, and last to surrender to Cromwell's authority. [SOURCE: Larry Chesebro']

    Notes:

    Joseph Ball (1649-1711) was born in England and came to Virginia sometime before his father's death, making his home at a plantation called Epping Forest. He served as a justice of the county court, a vestryman for his church parish, as a Burgess (in 1698, 1700, and 1702), and as a lieutenant colonel in the county militia. Ball was married twice. From his first marriage to Elizabeth Rogers (or Romney), who died by the early 1700's, he had five children: Anne Ball (later the wife of Colonel Edwin Conway), Elizabeth Ball (later the wife of the Reverend Joseph Carnegie),Esther or Easter Ball (later the wife of Rawleigh Chinn), Hannah Ball (later the wife of Rawleigh Travers, II, and afterwards the wife of Simon Pearson), and Joseph Ball (died 1760).

    After the death of his first wife, Joseph Ball married Mary Johnson (died 1721), a widow who had two children from her previous marriage. Together they had one child, a daughter named Mary Ball (1708-1789). Joseph passed away, however, soon after when Mary Ball was only three years old.

    Mary Johnson Ball was remarried the following year to a man named Richard Hewes, who left her a widow for the third time in 1713. Her daughter, Mary Ball, was completely orphaned by the age of 12 or 13 and was subsequently raised by a guardian named George Eskridge, a local lawyer, land speculator, and Burgess, whose plantation was called Sandy Point. In 1731, at the age of 23, she married Augustine Washington (1694-1743), a middle-aged widower with three children, who ranged in age from 13 to 9. Their first child, a little boy they named George Washington (1732-1799), was born early the following year.
