Richard IV (1699-1775)
Richard IV is the first Pace for whom we have a description.

His grandson, Barnabus wrote: I have seen the handwriting of my grandfather. He wrote an elegant hand, spelt well, and was a man of good English education. I have often heard him spoken of by old men who knew him as a man of good sound sense, a plain unassuming man, a good citizen, a good neighbour, a kind husband, and as a parent, skilled in managing a family and training his children in the pathway of virtue, honesty and economy.

He knew how to govern himself and his family. Richard IV was born in Bladen Co NC. When in 1744 his farm in North Carolina lost its fertility, he sold out and with his entire family, set out for Georgia. By 1749 Richard was established on land on the Savannah River Island. About 1723, Richard married Elizabeth CAIN.
