Notes: FOHG House History identifies 11 Church Street as Thomas Ball's House but this conflicts w/ more thoroughly researched info on 13 Church Street, also identified as Thomas Ball House. 9/24/2020: House histories and title research in 13 Church Street file may actually pertain to 11 Church. Catalog record removed from Online Catalog until discrepancies between the inforomation in files for 11 and 13 Church Street can be sorted out.
