  • Notes 
    • From The Glas(s)cock - Glassco Saga: "Capt. William and his brother
      Major George proceeded to build up their estates to acquire a
      prominent position in the society of the day.
      On April 13, 1726 Maj. George Glascock married Judith Ball, daughter
      of his neighbor Col. William Ball, and two years later his brother
      Capt. William Glascock married her cousin Esther Ball, daughter of
      Capt. Richard Ball of St. Mary's Chapel. The girls were 1st cousins.
      Their fathers were 1st cousins of Mary Ball who married Augustine
      Washington, the parents of Geo. Washington, so they were both 2nd
      cousins of George Washington."

      Virginia Genealogies, by Rev. Horace Hayden, page 63: Esther Ball
      married Capt. Wm. Glasscock on May 10, 1728 and had 5 sons & 6
      daughters.
      Pg. 47: President George Washington's mother, Mary Ball Washington,
      is listed as grand daughter of Col. William Ball.

      Early Va. marriages 929.3 C Lancaster Co. page 50: lists April 10,
      1728 (Capt.) Wm. Glasscock of Richmond Co. & Esther, dau of Sarah
      Ball.

      Apparently Capt. William and Esther lived in the house at "Indian
      Banks" after their marriage in 1728, but both he and Maj. George were
      associated with the area from then on and the Farnham Parish records
      contain many births, marriages & deaths of their descendants for
      several generations. From these two men descended many prominent
      Virginia Glascocks.

      In 1730 Capt. William was appointed as Commission of Peace for
      Richmond Co.
