The record showed that Mart (actual name on <strong>the</strong> census sheet) was a farmer <strong>and</strong> that he <strong>and</strong><br />

Abbie (Abbie Ball) had been married 7 years (marriage date found is 3 August 1903). Abbie was<br />

born on 3 April 1885 <strong>and</strong> she died on 13 September 1967.<br />

Mart <strong>and</strong> Abbie lived near to James W Ball (age 42) <strong>and</strong> Ida Ball (age 40) who had been married<br />

for 24 years suggesting that Abbie might be <strong>the</strong> daughter <strong>of</strong> James <strong>and</strong> Ida, although for now this<br />

is an assumption. It is also assumed that Collie Ball is bro<strong>the</strong>r to Abbie.<br />
