In this message O.N. Benson is mentioned . Mary J( don't know maiden name) who
married William P. Ball(need more information) is the mother of Oliver N. Benson who is my
great grandfather. Oliver was married to Emma D. Ball. Oliver and Emma had George N.
Benson who married Jessie May Sheets. My dad, James Garrison Benson, is the youngest
child. I am trying to connect the tree reaching beyond William P. Ball needing his parents
and so on. With this information I should be able to connect the tree that with what I
have started with The family's of Lee, Ball, Conway, Taylor, Gordon, and Harrison.
William Ball (1615-1680) married Hannah Atherold is what I have as the start of the Ball
family tree.One son of William and Hannah is Joseph Ball (1640-1670) married Elizabeth
Romney. Their daughter Mary Ball married A. Washington who are the parents of George
Washington. The line ends there on my tree. Joseph Ball's brother, Capt. William
Ball(1614-1684) married a woman last na!
me Bewdley. Several generations later my line ends with their gr. gr. granddaughter
Eliz. Lee Ball (1770-1815)who married John Gordon (d. 1787). I know this is alot of info
and maybe some of it will help you. Anything you may have to help me is greatly
appreciated
