Thank you, Gordon. My problem is that I cannot determine who came before William Beverly Turner, born in Georgia in 1825, married Mary Ann Ragland on 20 Sept 1849 in Henry County, Georgia. She was born in 1830 in Henry County. In 1850 they were living with her father, Burwell Ragland in Henry County. I need to find a male descendent to have the DNA test; the only cousin I have found refuses. If I could find Alonzo's descendents (he was Wm. B. Turner's son--as was my great-grandfather), I might be able to persuade one of them to do the test. I have come to the conclusion that the name "Turner" is about as common as "Smith" or "Jones." But thanks for the information; if I ever do find a connection perhaps I can tie it all together.

This info may not be especially relevant either, but Turners (Abner) and Paces (brothers Dempsey and John - of Frederick Pace of Wales fame) were still together in Alabama in the early decades of the 19th century where they were among the first settlers in the part of Clarke Co, AL, where I grew up. The Paces took shelter from the Indians in the Turner stockade during the late months of 1813 when the Creek War was just beginning. This stockade was located in West Bend within a mile of the house in which I grew up. Abner Turner was one of the commissioners who supervised the division of the estate of my ancestor William Pace (d. 1826).

I modified that later. The Internet says Alonzo was Spanish originally, but could also be Italian. And yes, I recall that Alonzo was popular in the 1800s and even later in the shortened forms of Lonnie and Lon. And who can forget the comedy team of 'Lonzo and Oscar? So I have revised my first suggestion; I don't think the name Alonzo tells us much of anything.

Jim: Add Rev. John Pace from King and Queen County to your list. He was great grandson of John of Middlesex. His first hitch was for his brother Benjamin, his father Benjamin had just died, and John went in Benjamins place so the older brother could stay at home and care for plantation and family.(Their mother was Francis Williamson ) Also his brother Williamson (married Cressy Sanders) died of the small pox while stationed in Gloustertown. His son George Sanders Pace applied for pension, because he was a infant at the time he could not supply details necessary. Rev John applied for pension in Ky. and his wife in Missouri. After his firrst hitch, he returned home and was drafted. There was a Williamson Pace in King and Queen and also in Pittsylvania County. Wm. Pace who died in Scott County was a member of Washingtons Guard. His story is "Commanders-in- Cheifs Guards by C.E. Godfrey. Pace, Henry I have no info. Jesse was from Joseph line, Joel (William-JohnJr-John Sr.)joined at Chesterfield Va. Court House, he was under aged when he joined. red headed and 5' 4". I have no info on Leonard Pace, Neusam was from Pittsyvania the son of William (John Jr.-John Sr) Michael was Michael (PEES) Pace, German line. Saw actions. Seems like there should be more.

I have a request for funding from Lynn Beard who wants to test her father. She is willing to participate but cannot provide the entire funding. Okay, this is the information I was able to get from my father. His memory is failing, but hopefully this is correct: (My Grandfather) Cosby Alonzo Pace: born in Cochran, GA August 1, 1878 and died in 1944 (they were living in Brunswick, Tenn, so I assume he died there) Married to: Dona Elnora Stewart: born in Brunswick, Tenn. December 15, 1871-75 (approx. year) and died at about 88 years of age. This is an interesting one. These are not "standard" Pace Names. Alonzo is Spanish but could be Italian. However, on familysearch.org there are two Alonzo Paces in Georgia born late 1900s who purport to trace back to early Virginia Paces. I have also sent some suggestions on doing some added research to Lynn. But many of you are more experienced researchers than I, and could help her more. I have suggested that she join Pace-L if she is not already a member and post a query. Roy Johnson

Just like sitting around the dinner table with family members and discussing or arguing the woes of the world, the people who frequent this list also behave in much the same way. Although the list is intended for genealogical discussions, an occassional deviation harms no one. I too have fought for the good ol USA and the right for people to express their opinion on the politics of this country is exactly what I fought for, even if it differs from my view, which by the way is always the correct view. This country needs more political discussion, the silence of the masses is why Washington is like it is today.

I ran across an interesting reference source. An extensive number of veterans of the American Revolutionary War are listed in three volumes. The source is: White, Virgil D., Index to Revolutionary War Service Records, Vol. III: L - R, Waynesboro, TN, National Historical Pub. Co., 1995, p. 2046.

Williamson, srv. as Pvt. in the Commander-in-Chiefs Guard for Cont. Troops Williamson or as Williamson Peace, srv. as Pvt. In 14th VA Regt. The card numbers and roll numbers refer to the source that the author used. The last four entries must refer to the same William X or H. Pace. Evidently, there was some confusion regarding his name in the records. A third person may have erred when entering records regarding said William. You will also notice that there is a Pace in A New Hampshire regiment, as well as a Michael Pase in a New Jersey regiment. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail Bring photos to life!

Reference to freedom of speech or expressions and tolerance thereof causes me to respond. First of all I can attest to the fact that this is not the first time Gordon Pace has used discussion of genealogy to express his political feelings toward the US, it's government or it's policies. First, I acknowledge Henry Pace of the USAF for his restraint and civility in his response, secondly I acknowledge Gordon Pace for his apology and hopefully this won't occur again. I would remind you all that freedom of speech is a right that all free nations respect and cherish but used without restraint and in an inappropriate venue does have consequences. I am sure we all agree that discussion of family history are not an appropriate venue to vent at the same time we all agree that Henry stands firmly within his rights as well. Tolerance doesn't equate into silence. As we research and explore our family history we should be reminded with humility of blending of so many into a family. There really isn't a true "Pace family" anymore so than any other family, even for the men who carry the surname forward in their offspring. While I carry my husbands surname proudly it is not because of his ancestry or his achievements but because of my love. Just as I carried my maiden name proudly. Sometimes as we make progress in our research there is almost a sense of arrogance in our pride. When I look at the technology advancements in my life time I am reminded that our research today will be challenged in the future and through some unknown method there will be those who say, these people just didn't get it right.

Americans (and I hope Paces) are committed to freedom of expression. The Paces I grew up were tolerant of others and their differences.

Thankyou so much for this news, The other day, I was so devastated with the appearance that I had lost so many hours of my research work, and as my television was going on and on about this security scare, at the same time, it was almost too much. We are all cousins, thankyou, and need to remember we are related and have our faults and suffer the remorse, and need to overcome, whatever, is there to trip us into our faults of personality and as I've been on so many UK Rootsweb lists and seen so many people offer appologies, for things said, or things thought, done, from time to time, I admit, with the degree of diligence, we work ourselves under, it is my time to repent and go to the corner and face the wall for a while.
