     "Item, I give to my two sons, Spencer and Richard Ball, all that tract of land that I now live on, being about 1500 acres, which was formerly settled on them by deed, but supposing that Spencer's part will take some of the land above the glade, my desire is that the glade shall be the division between them; and I do give my son, Spencer Ball, and his heirs forever, one negro man named Gie, in consideration that he make over to my son, Richard Ball, and his heirs male forever, lawfully begotten of his body, all his right, title and interest of the land aforesaid, lying above the glade, and for the want of such issue, to return again to my son Spencer, &c., and in case my son Spencer fail to perform the same as aforesaid, then I give the aforesaid negro to my son, Richard Ball, and his heirs forever.
     "Item, I give to my daughter, Sarah Ball, my land in Richmond County, to her and her heirs forever, provided my loving wife give each of my two sons, viz: Joseph and William Ball, part of her land at Black Point, but in case my wife should not give my said sons part of her land, that then I give my land in Richmond Co. to my said two sons, Joseph and William Ball, and their heirs forever.
I give my dear and loving wife all the negroes I had with her and one negro boy named Tom, and after her decease I give the said Tom to my son, Richard Ball, and his heirs forever. I give my dear wife my horse named Sprite.
     "Item, I give my son, Richard Ball, one negro man named Cuffy, to him and his heirs forever.
     "Item, I give to my three children, viz., Sarah, Joseph and William Ball, six negroes, viz., Harry, Jenny, Nan, Hannah, Winny and Billy, to them and their heirs forever, and my will is that each of my said children shall have their proportional share of the said negroes and their increase delivered to them, as they, my said children, shall come of age, or at the day of marriage.
     "Item, I give my son Spencer my young black horse.
     "Item, I give all the rest of my estate not heretofore given, unto my dear wife and five children, viz., Spencer, Richard, Sarah, Joseph and William Ball, to be equally divided among them.
     "Item, my will is that my loving brothers, Richard and Geo. Ball, have the tuition of my children and the management of their estate; notwithstanding it is my desire that they do not take my children from their dear mother, upon any account than as they shall think reasonable for the better educating them, nor their estate without she marry again, and that her then husband should prove unkind to my children, and not take provident care of them and their estate, that then my desire is that my said brothers take upon them the whole care of my children and the management of their estate.
     "Item, I do hereby nominate and appoint my dear and loving wife executrix of this my last Will and Testament, and I do revoke and make null and void all former Wills and Testaments by me made, and I do hereby ratify and confirm this to be my last Will and Testament. In witness whereof, I hereunto set my hand and seal this the 19th day of 8ber, 1720.

Hello,

I just read the book shown below and came up with some new information. Thought I would pass it along:
Lillard
The information on the Lillard name, and the names of their children, come from the book "Lillard - A Family of Colonial Virginia" by Jacques Ephraim Stout Lillard, published 1928 by Williams Printing Company of Richmond, Va. Includes authentic Revolutionary War service references, early marriage records, wills, deeds, legal documents, and original family letters of early American Lillards. Book is the property of the Texas Library in Austin, TX.

In almost all family trees on the John McGinnis Family, it gives William McGinnis' spouse as Martha Lillard. Based on the above book, I believe her name to be Margaret "Patsey" Lillard. This book gives the correct marriage date and lists her spouse as William McGinnis. The book also give all the children of John Lillard and Susanna Ball. No Martha.

Shows Mary 'Polly" Lillard married Samuel McGinnis.

; per Moeller [1994]: "The surname Ball, according to the best authorities dated from Norman times and is a shortened form of Baldwin, which family were for many generations Counts of Flanders. In fact, William the Conqueror married Matilda, the daughter of Baldwin VIII, and many of his immediate family came to England. After the Conquest the name appears to have been shortened and was spelt various ways as Balle, Bale, Baell. Bradley points out that Baell corresponds to the Anglo-Saxon Bael, meaning funeral pile; while Ball is only a partial equivalent of the Saxon Bald, meaning bold." (Heck 1928)
There seems to be agreement that the name means one who is bold enough in battle to win, not bald, as in no hair. (Heck 1928.)^2,3,4

Note: The last record of Ambrose Meador in Isle of Wight Co. is in 1649, when he sold land to Ralph Warrener on 9 April 1649. Ambrose soon followed the Puritan colonists to Lancaster Co. on the Rappahannock River. He is first found there on a list of tithers on 24 Oct 1653. He settled on the northeast side of the river in the Totuskey Creek area. On 3 Sep 1656 he purchased from James Williamson the lower 1,000 acres at the 1800 grant on Willing Creek (Totuskey Creek). The neighbors here besides Williamson included Bryer, William Underwood, Abraham Moore, Thomas Robinson, and William Denby from the Isle of Wight colony.
