Message Board Post:
Mr. Ball was a farmer, inventor, and respected citizen who instilled confidence in his
sons and assured them that they would succeed in whatever they undertook. Mrs. Ball, a
schoolteacher, gave her children love, inspiration, and direction. She urged them to go
into business together. The five Ball brothers established a company in 1880 that would go
on to become an international success story. Each of the brothers contributed unique
talents and expertise to their venture.
