     Margaret Mary WILLIAMSON was born in 1644 in Virginia. She was the daughter of James Williamson and Ann Underwood of Rappahannock County, Virginia.

Margaret married Capt. William BALL Jr., son of Col. William BALL and Hannah ATHEROLD, on 26 March 1673 in St. Mary's White Chapel, Essex County, Virginia. Tyler's Quarterly Magazine, noting problems determining the mother(s) of William's children stated:

"Genealogists seem in the past to have all conceding that he [William] was married several times but until recently it was uncertain by which wife he had the various children. It has now been proved by records that his third and last wife was Margaret Williamson who died and left a will dated 1697 mentioning all the children of Captain William Ball and herself and designating herself the sister of Mary Rozier, both daughters of James Williamson and Ann Underwood. Colonial record has been established for Margaret Williamson for an original land grant in Rappahannock County Virginia, Book 4, page 57, March 11, 1662." [This year needs checking] "

The order in which he married these three women is also in dispute.^1,2,3,4
