Can anyone tell me, has Patience's maiden name been proved? I have read that it was Howell but is there proof? James

You probably have already seen this. This info came from Gordon W. Pace: "Patience Pace is named as a daughter of Thomas Howell in his will dated 2/10/1794. Also, the will of George Pace of Halifax Co names sons John and William and it is witnessed by Matthew Howell on 1/7/1773, brother of Patience Howell above. This is the primary evidence for Patience Howell as the wife of George Pace of Halifax Co, NC."

I have been looking into to Howell family research on the web. The line back from Thomas Howell is rather interesting, there being a connection to the Lanes, who in turn drop back down their line to some Paces. However, according to these sources, the Matthew Howell in Thomas's will would have to be a contemporary of William Pace. His sister would have been of the same generation, and therefore, could not have been William's mother. This, of course, is not primary information. James R.
