I discovered an e-mail you sent in 1999, while doing family research this day. I noted you have a question about a William Carroll Pace and cited the 1860 census of Marion County Arkansas and also that you know of a deed[Land transaction in Rutherford County Tennessee between Kings and Paces], that a Bob Pace made you aware of. My great-great Grandfather was the John King listed in the land transaction with the Paces in 1846, in Rutherford County Tenn. Also, if you check the Marion County Arkansas[Jimmie's Creek Township] census for 1860, you will note the Paces and Kings are once again connected. My great-great grandfather, John King was living next door the the William Carroll Pace family and furthermore, in John King's household there is a William Pace, age 89, born in North Carolina. In my family, we remain confused as to why William Pace was living in a King household. We have concluded that since the Kings and Paces were connected while ling in Rutherford County Tennessee, prior to all of them relocating to Arkansas about 1850, or so, that John King was being a good neighbor, or that the Paces and Kings were in fact relatives in some way. We are thinking that William Pace, age 89, was either William Carroll Pace's father or his grandfather. Also, we know that John King's wife was Elizabeth Ralph and her mother had been a Mc Cracken--William Carroll Pace's wife Emily had also been a McCracken before marriage. Our family focus is finding out for sure who was John King's father--the land transaction in Rutherford county Tennessee has a William King and a John King selling land to William Pace and to a William Carroll Pace--is this William King John King's father?? If you can help me, I would deeply appreciate it. Carolyn Caton [name before marriage was King]
