  oooh. Cool. Looked at my site meter today and saw someone had come by way of google looking for "wiltshire england ship planter ball brothers" (or something similar). When i went to those search results, the first thing that popped up was urlLink 1750 Maryland Ball Family to Geo. Washington , which is sort of what i was looking for about them. In the Ball book, there's no history further back than a anecdote about the six brothers coming to the US on the ship. So, yeah, i think this is what i'm looking for. I'll compare it to the book later.
