Nicholas Ball was Lord Mayor of Dublin and MP for Dublin in the Parliament of Ireland. He was from a wealthy Irish merchant family: his father Bartholomew Ball and brother Walter Ball were also mayors of Dublin. Unlike his brother who converted to Anglicanism, he remained a Roman Catholic like his martyred mother, Blessed Margaret Ball. He married Begnet Luttrell and they had three children, Margaret, Jane and Bartholomew. They lived near Kells, County Meath.
