I'm in the midst of doing research on them now. The early ones seemed to be in Salem and Gloucester Counties, perhaps split off from Burlington Co., which I believe where originally from Berks and then Burks Counties in Pa. Haven't gotten far enough back to connect with them. Many of the Lacys then moved from the farms to Camden Co. in the latter part of 1800 to get good paying jobs with the advent of the Pennsylvania Railroad and close proximity to Philadelphia. Many families had sons that moved to get these jobs. Garland Lacey was helpful in connecting me with a lady who had lots of my southern NJ Lacy names but couldn't connect them to other documented NJ Lacys. If any one can find an early connection to any 1700 Lacys that migrated to Salem and Glou. Co. as farmers and Blacksmiths I would love to hear from you.
