     Comment by DGB: The notion has been put forth that David Ball was born in Watertown 17 January 1716/17 to Joseph and Elizabeth (Parkhurst) Ball who then moved to Framingham. This premise is a possibility according to the birth and death dates of these men. However, other than the fact that David Ball of Watertown disappears from the records shortly before David Ball of Dartmouth first appears, there is no proof that the two men are in any way connected. In fact, the children of David of Watertown do not appear with David of Dartmouth. Furthermore, the David Ball of Framingham seems to have left a widow behind by 1761. End of comment.³ David Ball was at one time a weaver as seen by deed when he sold the land his wife received from her father "Know all men by these presents that we David Baul of Dartmouth in the County of Bristol in the State of Massachusetts Bay in Newengland weaver & Sarah Baul my wife in Consideration of the Just Sum of Two Thousand & one hundred Pounds Current money to us in hand paid by Goddard Spencer ... in witness whereof we do hereunto Set our hands and Seals this 24th Day of April, Ano Domini one thousand Seven hundred and eighty". This land was that given the couple by George Badcock as the descriptions are identical and was the land where David and Sarah lived. Therefore they probably sold it just prior to moving to Vermont. That nineteen acres of land could sell for over two thousand pounds in 1780 sounds incredible. The pound must have experienced a great deal of devaluation due to the war with England. The spelling of "Baul" instead of "Ball" in these documents was not necessarily the way David spelled his name, but was more likely the interpretation of the spelling given by the county clerks who recorded the deeds.³ David and Sarah Ball were living in Wilmington, Vt. in 1785 when Sarah died. It is thought that they moved to Wilmington in 1781, which seems likely as they sold their Dartmouth land in 1780.³ David had remarried by 1790 as seen by the following deed. "Know all Men by these presents that we David Ball of Wilmington in ye State of Vermont yeoman, & Mary his wife, in consideration of Ten Pounds lawfull money paid us before ye sealing hereof by Hedijah Baylies of Dighton in ye County of Bristol in ye Commonwealth of Massachusetts Esqr. the receipt whereof we do hereby acknowledge do hereby give grant sell and convey to ye said Hedijah & to his heirs & assigns allow right title and interest in & to a certain Dwelling house & about seven acres of Land Scituate in Taunton in sd County of Bristol, being what was set off to ye said Mary as part of her right of Dower in ye Estate of her late husband Daniel Lincoln Decd ... Witness our hands & seals this Thirtieth Day of November Anno Domini Seventeen Hundred Ninety".³
