Saw your web page for Moore Family History.
My name is Brooks Ballard from the Ballard Family Augusta Maine descendants of Ephraim and Martha Moore Ballard.
We have had Johnathan and Margaretta Blight marriage certificate dated November 7, 1853 in our family most likely since they were married. We also have a few of Johnathan's Navy Sword and other things he collected as he traveled while in the Navy.
Though you might like to see it.
Thanks
Brooks Ballard

Hi I just found your site on the web. My name is Patrick Turbin and my mothers maiden name was Mary Ballard. William of Andover is my 9th Great Grandfather. His son John 8th, He has connections with the Salem witch trials. Sherebiah 7th, Sherebiah 6th, Luke 5th, Norman 4th, Luke 3rd, James Norman 2nd, and Frank Lee Ballard my Grandfather. I have Lukes family Bible with some info in it about some of the relatives marriage dates and death dates and where they are buried. I believe starting with Norman the family moved to Dundas Ontario Canada. My Great Grandfather James Norman moved back to the States around 1900 to Kansas City where he was a Pattern Maker for the Railroad Shops. When my Grandpa was about 9 they moved to Stevens Point Wisconsin to work in the Railroad shop there. I live in Wis. Rapids about 20 miles from there.

I recently attended the Yates Family Reunion North of Bozeman. A woman named Shirley Sedivy compiled an extensive geneology of Granny Yates. She has it that Forrest worked at the Lewis & Clark Caverns as a seasonal employee. Do you know any thing more along those lines? While I was in Montana I visited the caverns and was really impressed with the development. In the days Forrest might have worked there, in summers during high school or after he graduated, it had to be a very primitive site, much the same as it always had been. But the CCC developed the cave interior with steps and lighting. There are photos at the visitor center of a young work force. I wondered if he might actually be in one of those photos. I do enjoy that part of the US. My mother was raised on a ranch at Gallatin Gateway, East of town on what is now Yonder Rd, about a mile off Cottonwood. I had not been to MT in 45 years and had never seen the ranch. It was a very rewarding trip. I want it to be an annual excursion. We'll see. Thanks.

Hi,
I was on the Ballard Family Tree website and I am Gussie Ballard Smith oldest grandchild, Debbie OHern Lund. My mother is Gussie & Bud Smith oldest daughter, Penny Blanche. My mom is really into the family history and would have more information on the children of George &
Lillie Ballards and their families. My grandmother, Gussie, is 88 and will be 89 this year and still going strong. Her brother, Tom, is the
only other sibling that is still alive. I believe that you are a granddaughter to my great uncle Forest if I followed everything correctly. My grandma has talked of him often and she also has the photo of him on his horse, Eagle. Anyhow, my mom's email is, I will also let her know the name of the website so she can look. It is very interesting to read all of the family history!!!
Debbie Lund

Hello Jay,
Thank you for creating this website. I found some
information on my grandmother, Jane Adele Ballard (married name Judd)
who was the 11th child of Elizabeth "Lizzie" Ballard. She died this
year in her home in Arkansas City, KS surrounded by family of four sons
and a dozen or more grandchildren.
"Elizabeth W. "Lizzie" BALLARD
Birth: January 30, 1878 in St Louis, Jefferson Co., MT
Marriage: Henry Lafayette Cloninger of Gallatin Valley on May 23,
1900
Henry was born September 15, 1878 in Missouri & died
November 17, 1966
Children: 1) Carrie Mae born March 31, 1901
2) Everett Leslie born June 11, 1903
3) Alton Kenneth "Ken" born July 6, 1905,
4) James Henry born August 24, 1907

We were inspired by my grandmother's passing to
create our own family tree. So far there are 50 people added. The hard
work will be tracing back through time. I'm sure you know all about
that!
Thanks again,
Reagan

Family Tree
Hello. I
am researching my family - likewise to give to my adult children as a
gift. I am finding Rebecca Ballard married to Dr. John Henry Woodcock
married 1818 in Huntsville, Alabama and then living in Mobile, Alabama
1840 - 1865). Rebecca Ballard( my gg grandmother) is the daughter of
Rebecca Taylor and Walter Ballard, Walter being the son of Elizabeth
Clopton and William Ballard. These families seem to be from North
Carolina and Virginia. John Henry Woodcock (my gg grandfather) (born
1798) seems to be from Pennsylvania. Does this fit into the research
that you are completing? Thanking you. Gloria (retired Kindergarten
teacher!)
P.S. I
did find a picture of a young man around 1934 named "Cousin Lou" on a
vacation in Galveston Texas, if that is of any value. Just on the
chance.

I am a
grandson of Elizabeth Ballard Cloninger. I have visited your website and
was so excited to find photos of Lizzie as a young girl and woman. I
have a photo of my mother, Jane Adele Cloninger as a toddler with her 10
siblings in front of the log cabin that shows Uncles Will and Fred etal
at Radersburg on your website. I would like to add a correction and an
addition. Lizzie actually died in Wichita, KS at Jane Cloninger Judd and
Kenneth Judd's house while visiting there. Additionally, Jane Adele
Cloninger Judd died October 15, 2011 at her home in Arkansas City, KS. I
have heard so many stories about the place/names in your site from the
time I can first remember, Radersburg, Three Forks, Gallatin Gateway,
Bozeman, .... Holler, etc. There is a story Jane told of a murder over
a fenceline by one of her uncles up in the Holler. At any rate I so
appreciate your effort. Jeff ....

Mary K. Ballard (20 April 1808-30 March
1853)
For many years
I have been trying to identify the above inscription which appears in
the Fossett Bible which belonged to my GG grandparents, John Fossett and
Susan McIntyre. The Fossetts and McIntyres livee in Bristol, Lincoln,
Maine. I am quite sure Mary K. Ballard was Susan's sister. Susan and
Mary would be children of Robert McIntyre, born 27 June 1779, and Nancy
Russell.
