    Notes:

    Apparently he is in Wikipedia.
    First established in 1686 by Hancock Lee, the two-story home was built in 1752-62 by Kendall Lee, grandson of the founder. Through intermarriage of the Lees who lived here and the Balls living at Bewdley, Ditchley became a Ball home in 1789 when it was conveyed to James Ball III of Bewdley, a first cousin. Around 1930, Mrs. Alfred I. duPont, nee Jessie Dew Ball, a descendant of William Ball, bought Ditchley, restoring it to its original beauty. Bobby Ball, quite a colorful character and fondly remembered, looked after the house until his death in 2001. A caretaker remains on the property, but the future of the house seems fragile. With its devotion to symmetry, this dwelling conveys an understated, elegant impression. The grounds have large old boxwoods, towering sycamores, and a huge osage orange. Being surrounded by level land and sparkling waters, it has a warm glow throughout the day.

    Hancock married Sarah Elizabeth Allerton 1690-1709, VA. Sarah was born 1670, Westmoreland, VA; died 17 May 1731, Ditchley, Northumberland, VA. [Group Sheet]
