Comments: Very nice, Adrian. Hard to get past the Log-in. My husband's line is related to the William Ballard (1603-1639)
of Lynn, Massachusetts, who came from Warwickshire, England. His father was William also. My husband's brother, Ron
Ballard, 1019 Highland Drive, Elko, Nevada, USA, 89801, is the one doing the Ballard research--I'm researching my Irish
Martin line. BUT, Ron doesn't have e-mail or internet access (can you imagine?) So if you connect into this line anywhere,
could you either let me know and I'll forward it to Ron or write him directly. I noticed that you had a William with those dates
on your list BUT I couldn't connect to a pedigree chart or family group chart. Thanks for your help, Adrian! Suzanne Ballard,
