Ballard_Rilla (Nee Luckhart)

One more Surname I'm tracking down is Ballard.

There's a gentleman in Toronto with some clues.

My Father always said that the Ballards were very distant relatives of the Rullers.

It appears that there are one or more Cunningham Ballard marriages and I think the Ballard and Greenwood names are connected to the Rullers.

I have a couple of Ballard photos in my big box of mixed photos!

This first one is identified on the back as 'Rilla (Ballard) Luckhart. I don't know who that is. There is also a small note taped to the back of the photo that reads "Would you think I will be 85 my next birthday. Ha Ha Yes."

The Photographer is Lane's Studio, Calgary, Alberta

Does any one know who this is or connect the Rullers & Ballards?

Mel,

I know who the Rilla (Ballard) Luckhart is.  Aurelia Ballard married Jacob Luckhardt.  Her parents were Alfred Ballard & Sarah/Susan Jane Cunningham.  Sarah/Susan being the sister of Hannah Lewis Cunningham who married Montezuma Brothers.  So she was Montezuma's niece.

Thanks Melinda:

This finally connects the Ballards to the Rullers by way of the Cunningham to the Brothers to the Rullers families.

Rilla Ballard is Mel Rullers first cousin twice removed.
