Misc. Notes
Two brothers, Ailing (or Allen) Ball and William Ball, came over to this country probably with the Rev. Mr. Davenport and his goodly company in the year 1637, though their names do not appear on the New Haven Town Records until 1643. It is said that they were members of the congregation that worshipped at St. Stephen's Church in Coleman Street, London, England.
Rev. John Davenport had been rector for some time prior to 1633, and which position he resigned on his conversion to the views of the dissenters. On the return of Mr. Davenport from Holland (whither he went to live on resigning his rector-ship) to England, he prepared for departing to America, and many of his old parishioners determined to go with him.
Among this company, .as we have stated (tradition informs us), were the two brothers, Allen Ball and William Ball, and also Thomas Fugill and his sister Dorothy Fugill, who became the wife of Allen Ball.
This company of colonists, led by the Rev. John Davenport and his friend, Theophilus Eaton, "arrived at Boston in the Hector and another ship on the 26th of June, 1637." The company subsequently sailed from Boston for the spot previously selected for them by Mr. Eaton and others of their associates, in the spring of 1638, and arrived at their destination April 14th, 1638. The spot thus selected for the settlement was then known by the Indian name of Quinnipiac, and afterwards by that of New Haven in the Colony of New Haven.
On the 25th of October, 1639, the officers of the colony were chosen. Theophilus Eaton was chosen for Governor, and Thomas Fugill as one of the four Magistrates elected and as Secretary. Thomas Fugill filled the office of Secretary for six successive years. He was also chosen one of the seven pillars of the church formed in 1639.
It appears that the said Allen Ball, together with his wife, Dorothy Ball, and Goody Ball (perhaps his mother), were concerned as principal witnesses in a slander suit brought to trial before the court held at New Haven September 1st, 1646.
Thomas Fugill (having fallen out with the New Haven authorities and been excommunicated and fined for taking more land than his proportion and falsifying orders) became exceedingly dissatisfied with his treatment by the rulers and determined to return to England. He returned to his native land in the year 1646, and we find that Allen Ball and his wife were present to see their brother off; for at a court held at New Haven October 6th, 1646, Allen Ball was complained of for several matters, one of which was "that he was late on training day in the afternoon," but he was excused as "he was with his sister Fugill upon her departure."
Prior to the departure of Thomas Fugill for England, he exchanged certain of his lands situate in the town of New Haven, and known at present as Ball's Spring, for land owned by his sister, Dorothy Fugill, and situate in London.
