Was George Washington's mother an albo?

Yup. I think so.
Rumor has it that she was of Albanian blood from peja Kosovo.
Mary Ball aka Marie Bala.

Americans spell rumour as 'rumor'?

[Baldur]

Wow she looks exactly like her son.

He was tall but had thick hips and stubby legs and long arms, so doubt it.

George Washington possessed a nobility that's only been portrayed as an old Albanian character by artists play writes and philosophers throughout history since the down of time. When he said; integrity and honesty is the best policy!
To prove my point, even Serb artists/directors put an old Albanian character older man as the most trustworthy.

AHAHAHAH now even Washington is albanian, after Marco Polo, Cristoforo Colombo, Dante Alighieri and Leonardo da Vinci?
C'mon people :lol:

C'mon people :lol:

Lol, I will laugh with you. No problem.
But if we take under consideration that Pelagians and Illyrians are indeed connected with today's Albanians more then any other ethnicity in the world, then one shouldn't be surprised that any Nobel person that has come out of European bloodlines could very well be Albanian at some point in time.

The Ball family line connects to George Washington through his maternal lineage. The first member of the Ball family to come to America was George Washington's great-grandfather, William Ball (1615- c.1680), who arrived in Virginia in the 1650s and later brought over his wife, Hannah Atherold (died 1694), two of their four children, and several servants.

William Ball was the son of William Ball of Lincoln's Inn, England who was one of four attorneys in the Office of Pleas and Exchequer. In Virginia, Ball began acquiring land, engaging in commerce, and taking part in colonial politics. He served as a major in the militia of Lancaster County, Virginia, and as a member of the House of Burgesses from 1668 until 1676 and again from 1676 to 1677. During this time period, Ball had dealings with John Washington, paternal great-grandfather of George Washington. The four children of William Ball and Hannah Atherold were Richard Ball (died in Maryland in 1677), William Ball (II) of Virginia, Hannah Ball (later the wife of Colonel David Fox, and Joseph Ball (1649-1711).

Joseph Ball (1649-1711) was born in England and came to Virginia sometime before his father's death, making his home at a plantation called Epping Forest. He served as a justice of the county court, a vestryman for his church parish, as a Burgess (in 1698, 1700, and 1702), and as a lieutenant colonel in the county militia. Ball was married twice. From his first marriage to Elizabeth Rogers (or Romney), who died by the early 1700's, he had five children: Anne Ball (later the wife of Colonel Edwin Conway), Elizabeth Ball (later the wife of the Reverend Joseph Carnegie),Esther or Easter Ball (later the wife of Rawleigh Chinn), Hannah Ball (later the wife of Rawleigh Travers, II, and afterwards the wife of Simon Pearson), and Joseph Ball (died 1760).

After the death of his first wife, Joseph Ball married Mary Johnson (died 1721), a widow who had two children from her previous marriage. Together they had one child, a daughter named Mary Ball (1708-1789). Joseph passed away, however, soon after when Mary Ball was only three years old.

Mary Johnson Ball was remarried the following year to a man named Richard Hewes, who left her a widow for the third time in 1713. Her daughter, Mary Ball (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Ball_Washington), was completely orphaned by the age of 12 or 13 and was subsequently raised by a guardian named George Eskridge, a local lawyer, land speculator, and Burgess, whose plantation was called Sandy Point. In 1731, at the age of 23, she married Augustine Washington (1694-1743), a middle-aged widower with three children, who ranged in age from 13 to 9. Their first child, a little boy they named George Washington (1732-1799), was born early the following year.
