Thanks for sharing!  Great Photo!

Family Search: 

Walter Raleigh Ball (1899–1922) • Person • Family Tree • FamilySearch

I went to his profile and used WikiTree Sourcer

This is a free app for WikiTree members.  In just seconds it will not only find the sources, but when you are on the web site, like Family Search, it will collect all the sources and build an AI bio for each source.  It saves them all to your clipboard, then you can paste it in the profile.  Did I mention it takes SECONDS to gather this information!

Did I mention the app is FREE...you just have to download it!

Family Search at least 12 sources and they list father and grandfather all the way back to:

William Ball of Essex County, Virgini 1647- 1695

Answer 2

Thank you, Jerry, for sharing this photo of your grandfather's baptism. A photo of an activity in a person's lifetime often tells more about a person than a studio portrait.
