Research Notes
- John has been attached to the wrong parents. Thomas Ball and Mary Mayell were born at approximately the same time. His parents names were Thomas and Mary Ann Ball, causing the confusion. His parents were born in about 1815 in England according to the 1861 Canada census.
- unable to find source or location for his death
- Rae Ball is a 2nd cousin, twice removed of John
