Biography

Very little is known about Mary Ball.

She married John William Llewellyn Jr. around 1750 in Norfolk County, Virginia, and they had several children:^[1]

• Mary, b. abt. 1750
• Annis, b. abt. 1751
• Clara, b. abt. 1756
• Chloe, b. abt. 1757
• Charlotte, b. abt. 1760
• Gracey, b. abt. 1763
• Susannah, b. abt. 1774
• John William III, b. aft. 1775^[2]

Around 1760, the family moved to North Carolina, settling in Martin County by 1774.^[3]

After her husband's death, she presumably lived with her son on the family plantation, which had found itself in Edgecombe County by that tine due to a change in the county bounaries.^[2]

She is supposed to have died in 1808.^[3]
