JOSEPH's 2nd marriage was to MARY PITT m 10 June 1771 and a descendent of this marriage resides in Pennsylvania, USA and has supplied much info on that part of the PACE family which seemed to move to nearby BILSTON

    • 6 JOSEPH PACE - Chr 02 Jul 1758 SHARESHILL
      

      No info found from Staffordshire records for this JOSEPH He MAY HAVE emmigrated to AMERICA DARRELL PACE of Charlotte, North Carolina - says JOSEPH B PACE Sr. is my ancestor, he appears in our family records in CHOWAN COUNTY, North Carolina, September 23, 1788 he married ZILPHA WOODWARD. From that point on to present, we have a clear record of my family line of Paces. This seems to possibly relate to a JOSEPH PACE of BLOXWICH, Staffordshire (adjacent to SHARESHILL parish) of this time frame.

      from a North Carolina descendent of JOSEPH B PACE Sr NC census records show he was born in England. He was born between the years of 1756 - 1766. After his marriage in 1788, he was given a land grant in ORANGE COUNTY, North Carolina

      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 ?

    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.

         click here to see correspondence with descendent Jacek Lowinski in Poland
         

         POLISH HISTORICAL FACT indicates JOHN PACE had emmigrated to POLAND, being
         a STEAM ENGINEER conducting start-up of steam 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.
