Ryan Morton said… Thanks for mentioning that Jack. I believe I had heard the story before but wasn't sure.
Dorothy Bonner Spencer West said… Jack, apologies for being so late- I've been so busy at church during the Lenten season. I've looked for the printout I found on the web about a William Douglass Shaw, but can't find it- was going to send you a copy. Your ancestry looks very interesting, and know you are proud of them. My tree is open to the public if you want to get any Ball information. Who are the Balls you have connected with (names)? Let me know and I can give you the names of my Balls if you would like.
My youngest brother lived in Austin, TX for years- he passed away. I was raised in FL, but live in Pittsboro, NC now- it's a quaint little town 15 miles south of Chapel Hill, NC. Have a great day,
Dorothy
Dorothy Bonner Spencer West said… Jack, I forgot, it was a William Douglas SHAW (not Ball) that is in my family tree. He was the son of my mother's brother. Sorry.
Dorothy Bonner Spencer West said… Hello Jack, my paternal grandmother was a Ball, and married a William Thomas Spencer. I've gone all the way back to the Baldwins, Counts of Flanders in the 800s; Matilda, daughter of Baldwin V married Wm. the Conqueror. That union started the lineage of Kings, Queens, Emperors, Counts, etc. Queen Elizabeth II is my 3rd cousin 9 x removed. Then there were the deBalliols, which eventually was shortened to Ball- I have the entire lineage. Of course, it might not be the same lineage as yours, as you well know. Would be glad to share any of my info with you. Dorothy West
