BALLARD, or BALLORD. The Ballards of Fram. prob. sprung from WILLIAM,* who (then æ. 32) came over in the James, 1634, with Eliza- beth, æ. 26; HESTER, æ. 2; Jo. (JOHN) æ. 1. Mr. Lewis states that William was a farmer, and lived on the Boston road, W. of Sangus river, was admitted freeman, 1638, (May 2), and in the same year was a member of the Quarterly Court at Salem. He adds, that his chil. were John, Nathaniel, and Elizabeth.t Before Mar. 1, 1641, William of Lynn, had deceased, making a nuncupative will, by which he gave half of his estate to his w. and half to his chil. (the names of neither being given). Suff. Prob. B. 1.#
2. JOHN, s. of William, had at Lynn, 1. SARAH, b. 1669 ; 2. REBECCA,
*Farmer supposes William of Lynn to have removed to Andover. A William took the freeman's oath, May 18, 1631, three years before W. of Lynn came over. William, Sen. of Andover, d. 1689, his inventory, (£206.18.6,) dated Oct. 23; and his est. was settled Sept. 28, 1691. He left a w. Grace; his sons were Jo- seph, William and John; the other heirs in the settlement were Samuel and Joseph Buterfield, John Spald- en, and Abigail Ballard.
t Hist. of Lynn, p. 25. Mr. Lewis supposes Elizabeth to have married George Abbot. We find the mar- riage, in Andover, of Elizabeth with Geo. Abbot, 1689. On the Charles- town Records, " Elizabeth of Lynn," m. Allen Bread, 1684. Both dates are late for a dr. of William, Sen.
# An inventory of William, " for- merly of Linn, decd." is recorded at Ipswich, dated Oct. 1, 1695, John,
s. of deceased, being admr. In 1697, John, s. of Win., divided with his br. Nathaniel, his father's est., and in 1721 gave a deed of certain lands to his own s. John. On the birth regis- tries, both at Salem and Lynn, the earliest entries of Ballards are, of the chil. of Nathaniel, beginning in 1666; of William, in 1668; of John, in 1669. The William was perhaps another son of William, Sen., of Lynn. It is hardly probable that he removed to Andover, as there are en- tries there of chil. of William, in 1655. The will of a William, of Charlestown, is dated July 5, 1679 ; he left, prob., no male issue ; but names his dr. Elizabeth Collier, of Woodbridge, N. J., and her sister, Mary Hodley, late Farrington.
Tradition assigns Wales as the origin of the Ballards. This family name is numerous at Worcester, in England.
