John Ballard of Mecklenburg County, Virginia (c.1715-1787)

"John Ballard, Sr, the likely son of William Ballard of Charles City county, is named as being of Lunenburg county in a transaction recorded in Surry County when he conveys to John Edmunds and Peter Hines of Surry County for £75: curr. “Four negro slaves, to wit 3 boys named Henry, Charles & Jacob & one girl named Kate,” dated 10 May 1749 and recorded 21 June 1749, Surry Co. Va. Deed Book 5, p. 415. Later that year he recorded a mortgage extended to Jno. Edmunds and Peter Hines of Surry county, which was proved by Wm. Gray and John Edmunds, recorded 3 June 1749, Surry Co. Va. Order Book 1744-49, p. 556."

"He first appears in Lunenburg county when he appears on a list of tithes (with two tithes) taken by Lewis Delony in 1748 (Landon C. Bell, Sunlight on the Southside (Baltimore: Clearfield Company, 1931) p. 68). We’re fortunate that the all of the lists for 1748 have been found and the boundaries are described in the lists. The territory covered by Lewis Delony was later cut off into Mecklenburg County. In 1749 and 1750, John Ballard appeared on lists taken by William Howard as a single tithable (Bell, Sunlight, pp. 112, 144)"
