LancsBMD has the marriage of John Ball to Ada WRIGHT 1896 Ormskirk Register Office or Registrar Attended - that is Q4 1896 Ormskirk 8b 1265.

So
Nanny Ball Q3 1911 Ormskirk 8b 1676 Mother's maiden name Wright

There is also a birth for Henry J Ball Q3 1912 Liverpool 8b 81 MMN Wright, but I doubt this would be right.

But maybe
Gilbert Ball Q4 1915 Ormskirk 8b 1473 MMN Wright

thanks again mary I think it is Ada Wright. will send for Peter or harry's BC'c to check. I have a feeling his is the spring birth as death obit states he was 84 in 1986. will request mother as Ada..

Tina... I think that ugly mug would scare a few folks away..... I just got my 10th grand child on the 29th june and am expecting #11 in January....hence the white hair and wrinkles.
