  • My John Pace was born 1780 in S.C., and died in Miss. He was the son of Silas Pace Sr, who had Silas Pace Jr, who had Bartley Martin Sr, who had Bartley Martin Jr, who had William P Pace, who had Clarence Pace, born in 1898 in Wood County, Texas, and this is the Pace I come thru.

    For Thomas William Pace I have b. 1812 in Abbeville, S.C. and d. 1866 in TX. m UNK Drucilla, b 1816 in S.C. Had 10 children born between 1835 and 1864 (have years if anyone is interested), but again this Pace family continued to stay with some of the same names which help us as we research, and also hinder us keeping the generations apart. Children: John Davis, William T., Silas M., Haywood D., Calvin D., Cain, Ohel Dahl, Thomas, Major, and Ewel Ulie P.

    I go no farther on this line and no true documentation on any. If needed by anyone I could possibly get documentation on the death of Thomas William Pace in Texas, as most of the Paces stayed within the same Piney woods area of NE Texas. And as his death date is only a couple of years after his last child was born there is a big possibility that some of his children stayed in the same general area. I have pictures of some of the Pace headstones in NE Texas, and may make another trip up that direction during Spring Break or next summer.

    Here is what I know about John Pace son of Silas Pace Sr:
    John Pace married Sarah UNK, six children, d. 1828. One of his children was indeed a Silas, and I thought you were saying that you had him down as the same person as Silas Pace Jr m. Elizabeth Foreman. But that seems to have been my misunderstanding of your post, so I think we can be pretty sure that John's son Silas Pace was the Silas Pace who died in 1849 without issue. The other children of John Pace were Richard (m. UNK), Louisa (m. Aiken Brazeal), Lucinda (m. Henry Cannon), Eliza, and Thomas William (m. Drucilla Anderson). That's all I know about John's family and have no documentation on any of it.
        .....My information on our line differs from yours in a few respects:
    1. I don't think we know the name of the wife of Richard born about 1665. It did used to be thought she was a Poythress but I think this turned out to be unsupported by the evidence.
    2. As I understand it, there is no proof of descent back to Richard and Isabella because we don't know which Richard Pace went into NC.
    3. Silas Jr only had five children, Sarah (m. John M. Funderburg), Serena (m. Peter Pope), Bartley Martin (m. Elizabeth Taylor as you say), Salina (m. Stephen S. Gray), and Miranda (m. Eli Bynum). Thomas William Pace b. 1812 was the son not of Silas Jr but of Silas Jr's brother John (see above)
    Regards,Ellen PACE-L 31/12/2005

    I have that THOMAS WILLIAM PACE was son of
    JOHN PACE b. abt 1775 m. Sarah, John was a son of
    SILAS PACE, Sr. b. 1726 NC m. Mary Newsome, and Silas was a son of
    RICHARD PACE and Elizabeth Cain. Richard was a son of
    RICHARD PACE and Rebecca Poythress (surname not proven).

    The above Pace info comes from Noble H. Pace, Sr. dec'd.
    The Thornton info comes from Nancy Sevier of Durham, NC.
    She says her information is not to be taken as proven.
    It comes from family records.
