Hodnet Parish Shropshire

Memorial to Piercy Pace
b 1869 HODNET
who died at Pretoria 1890

PACES
of Hodnet parish Shropshire

Paces of this parish likely originated from PREES, a few miles west of HODNET. A definite record to link the two families of PACE has not been found yet. The earliest PACE at Hodnet seemed to be John and Ann who would have married prior to 1675. This JOHN PACE could have been one of the JOHN PACE of Prees.

Some HODNET PACES migrated south eastward to other Shropshire areas
ALBRIGHTON SHIFNAL STOCKTON WORFIELD PATTINGHAM in Shropshire
then to Staffordshire towns of WEDNESFIELD and WILLENHALL and became LOCKSMITHS

JOHN PACE whose wife was ANN
possibly was from the Paces of PREES where the PACE family went back a few generations, showing up as early as 1600. This JOHN PACE named a son ROBERT. He may have been from the PREES family, father ROBERT PACE Christening: 8 Jun 1606 Prees; his father being RICHARD PACE but this statement is just my speculation, rather than fact. You can view the PR entrys and make your own judgement.

1 JOHN PACE
Since this JOHN seems to be the first PACE entry in the HODNET parish register, I'd say this JOHN likely came from the nearby PACE family at PREES. There were actually TWO JOHN PACEs who could fit this situation. READ my assumption on this theory

first born JOHN Chr. 1675-76
