Research Notes

Apparently James married (1) Mary (Reitlehover) Ballentine (abt. 1765 - abt. 1811) and (2) Anna Rosanna (Reitlehover) Ballentine (1786 - 1874). So he must still have been married to Mary in 1794, when his son James William Ballentine Jr. (1794 - 1856) was born and in 1804, when his daughter Elizabeth (Ballentine) Frick (abt. 1804 - 1854) was born. Also, Anna Rosanna was too young to be the mother of James William Jr. (she was 8 years old at the time of his birth). And according to James William Jr.'s Find A Grave entry, Mary was his mother. So both children were disconnected from Anna Rosanna and connected to Mary as their mother.
