I just re-read all of the guesses for the dates of Frederick and his sons. The best ones would indicate Frederick would be in his 60s probably late 60s, in 1803. "The biography of Dr. J. M. Pace [Jesse, son of the above William] published in 1892 in "Memorial and Biographical History of Dallas" tells essentially the same story, but he also lists the other Clarke Co Paces (Dempsey and William) as sons of Frederick Pace. ". . . his great grandfather, Frederick Pace, was born in Wales and came to the United States in 1768, seven years before the Revolutionary War. He was the father of five children, three sons and two daughters, all born in Wales. William the eldest son, was eleven years of age when he came to America, .John, the second son, and our subjects grandfather, was eight years of age....Dempsey, the third child of Frederick Pace, was six years of age. . . ." So if William was born in 1757 and Frederick was at least 21, that would make Frederick born 1735 or before, allowing a year after marriage before William was born. He would have been an elderly man by the standards of that time, but could be.

A question to the Frederick of Wales line: Dempsey, son of Frederick was born abt 1775 according to the family trees I have seen. I assume that is the Dempsey shown on the 1800 census of Chesterfield, SC, age 16-26. There is another Demsey found in 1800 census in old Pendleton District, SC, age 26-44 with 2 sons 10-15. Can anyone identify this Demsey. [no 'p' in his name]?
