I have some files on NM and the BLM records show several Pace records of Land Patents which include two below, who may or may not be a possibility. What is the John Pace b.

I loved the part where it asked his occupation and he said, "cowboy." And at the time he joined, he was living in New Mexico. It was also interesting how he was described with a dark complexion, blue eyes, and light brown hair. He must have been a striking young man! It also says he had his training in San Antonio, Texas and was issued a pension for his service in 1921. It looks like he died after 1930. What adventures he must have had! > He may be the grandson of Christopher & Marie/Maria Pace - born in > Tennessee (census 1880, Bentonville, Arkansas). But there are other > possibilities too.
