Dear Gordon, I have come across your name on several web sites regarding the Pace ancestry. My daughter did some research which led her to believe that we might be a descendant of Richard Pace an Ancient Planter of Jamestown. I am now trying to document my connection with Jamestown. Would you be willing to look at our findings and give me some pointers on where to find written document that would be accepted as historically accurate? Thanks, Judy Cox

Judy,    If you post information about your Pace ancestry on the mail list, there may be people on the list that might help you determine your ancestry.   You may also be interested in joining the Pace Society of America (www.PaceSociety.org).   The society publishes a quarterly and also has a members' only section that includes a document database (digitized original documents) for several of the Pace lines along with digitized copies of the back issues of the Pace Society Bulletin.   There is also a Pace DNA project that if you have a male Pace relative (brother, father, uncle, male cousin, etc) that can test, the DNA test results may help you determine which Pace family you are related to.  The Paces believed to be related to Richard Pace of Jamestown are in Group 3 of the Pace DNA project.  Rebecca Christensen --- On Wed, 10/1/08, Judy Cox <[email protected]> wrote: From: Judy Cox <[email protected]> Subject: [PACE] Pace Family ancestors To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, October 1, 2008, 4:28 PM Dear Gordon, I have come across your name on several web sites regarding the Pace ancestry.
