Son of Samuel Ball 1783 and Jane James 1777
Samuel was baptised on 27 March 1825 (1) in Dyrham, Gloucestershire. He married Hannah Maria Marshall on 7 Feb 1849 (1).
Hannah Maria Marshall was born about 1829 (2) in Kingston, Surrey. Nothing is known about her family.
The 1861 Census shows Samuel was working for the Railway Police, he was also using the name Leonard not Samuel. He and Hannah had 6 children.
