View the PACE Christenings and form your own opinion.

This PACE FAMILY LINEAGE
goes back to about the year 1600
the county of SHROPSHIRE in the MIDLANDS of ENGLAND
the parish church of
SAINT CHAD's at PREES, Shropshire
where a ROWLAND PACE
was registered as father in Christenings.

ROWLAND PACE
was not the only PACE father
in Christenings at ST. CHAD's
in the first two decades of the 1600's.

also appearing in the records as fathers
RICHARD, THOMAS, GRIFFITH, and ROWLAND PACE

I found further evidence
RICHARD and THOMAS
MAY HAVE
come from
WESTBURY on SEVERN, GLOUCESTERSHIRE
where I found the following Christenings in the parish register:

JOHN PACE father
  • THOMAS PACE
    Chr: 08 MAR 1578
    WESTBURY On Severn, GLS
    Father: JOHN PACE
    Batch Number: C032752

  • RICHARD PACE
    Chr: 04 MAY 1581
    WESTBURY On Severn, GLS
    Father: JOHN PACE
    Batch Number: C032752

  • JOANE PACE Female
    Chr: 11 OCT 1584
    WESTBURY On Severn, GLS
    Death: 19 FEB 1585
    Father: JOHN PACE
    Batch Number: C032752
MORE at
Gloucestershire PACE Records page

The year 1600 was the earliest Christening at PREES
JONE PACE Chr 1600 father RD. PACE
next one was
ROBERT PACE Chr 1606 father RICHARD
I'll assume the RD in JONE's Christening is RICHARD also

at Westbury-on-Severn, Gloucestershire

THOMAS, RICHARD, and JOANE
were in a PACE family, father JOHN PACE
sister JOANE died at about four months of age

about 18 years later at Prees, Shropshire
a JOAN is Christened in family of RICHARD PACE
a THOMAS PACE
also shows as father in Christenings
about the same time

RICHARD & THOMAS
may have migrated to PREES
from WESTBURY on SEVERN GLOUCESTERSHIRE.
I've wondered if RD., RICHARD and ROWLAND were the same person - spelling variations of given names were evident. Since relatively few PACE entrys were found after searching records of several surrounding parishes, permit me to take the liberty and arrange the entrys into respective families, as to father's name and date of Christening. This may not be absolute but for the most part, practical.
Distance between towns where Paces were found was a matter of walking distance. WELLINGTON today is on the north west perimiter of the town of TELFORD and HIGH ERCALL about 2 miles north west of WELLINGTON and WROCKWARDINE less than 2 miles west of WELLINGTON.

On the south side of TELFORD
at Coalbrookdale is the world famous,
IRON BRIDGE
in the SEVERN River Gorge

constructed by DARBY in 1779
ROWLAND PACE
The mother's name not mentioned

  • JOHN PACE
    - Chr. 24 APR 1615 PREES
    Father: ROLAND PACE

  • GEORGE PACE
    - Chr. 24 AUG 1616 PREES
    Death: 16 AUG 1617
    Father: ROWLAND PACE

  • JOSUAH PACE
    - Chr. 07 JUN 1618 PREES
    Father: ROWLAND PACE
    JOSUAH thought to be JOSEPH father of JOHN PACE Chr 1665 Wrockwardine and GEORGE PACE Chr 1670 Prees Christenings which showed the father's name to resemble JOSEPH. See notes below "The reasoning of my assumption"

  • MARGARET PACE - Chr. 01 NOV 1620 PREES
    Father: ROWLAND PACE

  • ELIZ PACE
    - Chr. 04 MAY 1623 PREES
    Father: ROWLAND PACE

  • THOS. PACE
    - Chr. 18 JUL 1625 PREES
    Death: 03 OCT 1625
    Father: ROWLAND PACE

  • PACES Male
    - Birth: 20 NOV 1626 PREES
    Death: 20 NOV 1626
    Father: ROWLAND PACES

The Christenings below
are arranged by date and father's given name, appear in parish registers where PACE families resided in Shropshire at PREES-1618, HIGH ERCALL-1653, RODINGTON-1655, WROCKWARDINE-1665, PREES-1670, NORBURY Staffordshire-1693 - Likely the same PACE family people

The father's name varies from parish to parish but is similar between the 1618 Christening and 1653 marriage

  • JOSUAH PACE-1618
    Christening at PREES
  • JOSHUAH PACE
    Marriage 04 MAR 1653
    MARGARETTE PALLMER
    HIGH ERCALL
  • JOSEH PACE-1655
    Christening of ANNE 32 months later in adjacent parish of RODINGTON

    ANNE PACE
    - Chr 02 NOV 1655
    RODINGTON, Shropshire
    - Father: JOSEH PACE

    RODINGTON is adjacent to HIGH ERCALL parish, merely about 1.5 or 2 miles and the Christening of ANNE was 32 months after the marriage.

    10 years later
    MARGARET's name is mentioned in 1665 Christening of JOHN and the father's name is clearly JOSEPH at WROCKWARDINE

  • JOSEPH PACE-1665 & MARGARET 1665
    Christening of JOHN at WROCKWARDINE
    mother's name MARGARET
  • JOSEPH PACE 1670
    Christening of GEORGE at PREES - mother's name not included in Christening record at PREES but notice 1694 GEORGE's first child named MARGARET Christening at NORBURY, Staffordshire
  • JOSUAH PACE

      PREES Shropshire
      Father: JOSEPH

    With little evidence to go on, the inclusion of the mother's name MARGARET seems to tie facts together and later GEORGE Christening without mother's name but in 1694 GEORGE's 1st child is named MARGARET.

    with the PACE family of SHERIFF HALES Shropshire. This would be his first cousin, another JOHN PACE Christened 1675, parents JOHN & JONE.

    No record of this marriage found. First Christening with this JOHN PACE as father appears in 1675. Review all the PACE Christenings of mid 1600's. This JOHN PACE was probably born about 20 years prior to this 1675 Christening. That leaves two JOHN PACE to consider.

      Between Dec 1696 and Nov 1699
      GEORGE & MARY PACE moved from NORBURY to RANTON, in Staffordshire, a distance of 6 or 7 miles eastwards, where they had two more children, JANE and GEORGE. RANTON is about about six miles west of STAFFORD, the county seat town.

    GEORGE PACE re-married
    ELIZABETH PICKEN at RANTON 30 Dec 1708

    and a son JOSEPH was Christened 10 Sept 1709 at RANTON.

      GEORGE and ELIZABETH moved south - about 10 miles
      to SHARESHILL parish around the 1720's. Shareshill parish includes LANEY GREEN, LITTLE and GREATER SAREDON, (Saredon Magna) and CHESLYN HAY.

      GEORGE PACE Chr. 1708 - probably joined his father GEORGE and step mother ELIZABETH to SHARESHILL. There are two death records of GEORGE PACES in SHARESHILL parish registers, one in 1738, the other in 1744.

      The following SHARESHILL parish records
      indicate the presence of two GEORGE PACES

          No further info from Staffordshire records have been found for this JOSEPH

          This JOSEPH MAY HAVE emmigrated to AMERICA.
          A DARRELL PACE of Charlotte, North Carolina
          MAY HAVE valid research results based on a JOSEPH PACE of BLOXWICH, Staffordshire of this time frame and nothing further is known of this JOSEPH from Staffordshire.
          Of seven children, four died, including mother MARY EVANS in 1770.
          Three brothers survived, JOSEPH, JOHN, WILLIAM

          from a descendent in North Carolina of Joseph B Pace
          Joseph B Pace Sr is my ancestor and he appears in our family records in Chowan County, North Carolina on September 23, 1788 when he married Zilpha Woodward. From that point on to present, we have a clear record of my family line of Paces.

          Joseph B Pace Sr from the Census records was born in England. He was born between the years of 1756 - 1766. After his marriage in 1788, he was given a land grant to Orange County, NC

        MOTHER - MARY EVANS - died 1770
        - (1st wife of JOSEPH PACE) -

        JOSEPH re-married MARY PITT
        (a popular surname - PITT - of SHARESHILL parish)
        JOSEPH & MARY moved to BILSTON, a few miles south of SHARESHILL. It seems son JOHN b 1761 of 1st marriage, accompanied JOSEPH & MARY to BILSTON.
        ,
        JOSEPH b 1758, another brother, may have emmigrated to America. No doubt there was dispersement of the family at this time.

        WILLIAM PACE 1765-1811 who I descend from was said to be from BRADLEY in his marriage to MARY BROWN of nearby HAUGHTON. So it could be asked, if father JOSEPH and 2nd wife went to BILSTON - who brought up son WILLIAM of Bradley ?

            The following comes from a PACE GENFORUM posting follow-up: br>

            POLISH HISTORICAL FACT indicates JOHN PACE had emmigrated to POLAND, being
            a STEAM ENGINEER conducting start-up of engines manufactured in ENGLAND for use in POLAND.
            Two of these English engines worked till 1956.
            POLISH HISTORICAL FACT also indicates sister SARAH also went to POLAND.
            In 1831, due to an unfortunate industrial accident, his life was lost.
