Is there a standard genealogy naming convention to keep track of who is who? Is there one specifically used by the Pace Society. For example, if I send pictures or other information on John Pace, which John? How do I communicate which one he is? Brian Pace Colorado

Generally, on the PacePix page of the Pace Network, I try to get the lineage from "John" as far back as possible for the tie-in. Then I publish an email address so the submitter can be contacted. That email address is disguised to avoid spamming bots picking it up for junk mail: whoeverATwhatever.com. There were quite a few submitters who did not submit lineage, but who did identify the person with place and time of birth and other specific information. I probably should have set some standards for lineage tie-ins but unfortunately I did not. Some may not have known the lineage. But all pictures are identified in some way to tell which "John Pace" it was. On PacePix the pictures were sent to me by email with whatever the sender wanted for identification. I then have to do the setup for the PacePix page. There is no way to upload pictures directly. Others will need to comment on the material for the members only database. I do not do that.
