Hello All, I joined the list several months ago, but this is the first time I've posted. I hope this isn't going to be too long winded & bore everyone, but I'd like to give the reasons why I think the Paice family belongs in my tree! In 1794 my 5x great grandmother married Thomas Brazyer in Whitchurch. Her name at the time was Sarah Quelch. When we looked up the marriage at the Society of Genealogists we discovered that she was a widow. Looking further back (1783) we found the marriage of a Sarah Butcher to Thomas Quelch, however there also she was a widow. I found a marriage of a Sarah Paice to John Butcher in Kingsclere on the IGI and checked for any other family members. Sarah Paice had brothers called Thomas, George & Abraham. Sarah & Thomas Quelch had sons called Thomas, George & Abraham. John Butcher was buried in Whitchurch (from the Hampshire Burial CDs) in 1782, so that also fits with the marriage of Sarah Butcher to Thomas Quelch. Finally Sarah Brazyer was also on the Hampshire Burial Index and was buried in Hannington in 1822 which made her age 70, the same age as Sarah Paice. I think that I can be as sure as I'm ever going to be that Sarah Paice is "my" Sarah. I have copies of all 3 of her marriages. The tree I constructed is from the IGI, so I'm hoping that there is someone out there who has this family in their tree and could confirm any of this: William Paice married Joan, Kingsclere. 2 children known: William Paice bap 24 Oct 1670, Kingsclere. John Paice bap 10 Apr 1675, Kingsclere. William married Elizabeth. 5 children known: Elizabeth Paice bap 20 Nov 1704, Kingsclere. William Paice bap 4 Dec 1706, Kingsclere.

Sarah Paice bap 29 July 1752, Sidmonton, Kingsclere. Amy Paice bap 12 Dec 1756, Sidmonton, Kingsclere. Abraham married Rachel Colborne, 18 July 1773, Kingsclere. 7 children known: Rachel Paice bap 6 Mar 1774, Kingsclere. Elizabeth Paice bap 14 July 1776, Kingsclere. Amy Paice bap 29 Apr 1779, Kingsclere. Mary Paice bap 9 Apr 1780, Kingsclere. Abraham Paice bap 16 June 1782, Kingsclere. Thomas Paice bap 1 July 1787, Kingsclere.

William married Elizabeth. 5 children known: Elizabeth Paice bap 20 Nov 1704, Kingsclere. William Paice bap 4 Dec 1706, Kingsclere. Married Sarah Baughurst May 1735 <snipped> James Paice bap 30 Jan 1714, Kingsclere. I had a James Paice married Martha Baughurst at St. Mary on 27 April 1835. Seems likely this is your James. I have no evidence Sarah and Martha were siblings but this seems possible. > Thomas married Elizabeth. <snipped> > Kingsclere. Sarah Paice bap 29 July 1752, Sidmonton, > Kingsclere. Amy Paice bap 12 Dec 1756, Sidmonton, Kingsclere. I had an Amey or Emey Paice married to James Woodhouse at st. Mary, Kingsclere on 26 Oct 1773. It seems likely this was your Amy. > Abraham married Rachel Colborne, 18 July 1773, Kingsclere. > 7 children known: > Rachel Paice bap 6 Mar 1774, Kingsclere. I have a Rachel married Richard Wheeler at St. Mary on 21 Jan 1793. I will need to check to see if Rachel Colborne was widowed after birth of Anne, other wise she could be the daughter. > Elizabeth Paice bap 14 July 1776, Kingsclere. I have an Elizabeth married to John Stroud at st. Mary on 28 Mar 1795 whcih looks like it could be this Elizabeth. > Amy Paice bap 29 Apr 1779, Kingsclere. > Mary Paice bap 9 Apr 1780, Kingsclere. I have two entries for a Mary Paice marrying. 1st to Edward Allen on 25 Sep 1795. 2nd to Thomas Prater on 21 Apr 1796. Difficult to know which might relate to your Mary <snipped> Hope this helps, I have a few more Paice entries but these are later dates and I will need to do more research to fit them in. -- John Lewis <jayellatntlworlddotcom> from Bournemouth, Dorset, UK. using Debian GNU/Linux and GeneWeb genealogy software and CMN: HOPKINS, DAVIES
