BALL, DONNELLY, RUDDY, BURKE
One set of great grandparents is Austin RUDDY who married Julia BURKE. They lived in Tonatleva, I believe. Judy had a sister named Biddy BURKE who married somebody named NEEDHAM. I believe Austin RUDDY'S mother's name was Kitty O'DONNELL. Austin must have died young but I do not know when or how. Austin and Judy had two daughters, Mary RUDDY (my grandmother)who married Patrick BALL; and Katherine RUDDY who married James Heneghan.
The other set of great grandparents were Austin BALL married to Bridget DONNELLY. They lived in Tully. I know Bridget had a sister named Catherine DONNELLY but that is all that I know. Austin and Bridget had nine children, most of whom came to the USA and lived in Clinton, Massachusetts.
I am looking for more information about all of these families.

Re: BALL, DONNELLY, RUDDY, BURKE
I am working on this Irish Ball family of Clinton MA and have put together a fair group. Specifically Austin Ball and Bridget Donnelly can be found on my New England Ball Project website http://www.newenglandballproject.com/g3/p3674.htm#i91830. I am suspecting that this Austin Ball was son of Austin Ball and Mary Kittredge and was brother to another Clinton MA head of household, Michael Ball and his wife Ann Norton. I have only noted seven children for Austin Ball and Bridget Donnelly, so would enjoy contact at my direct email: ***
