Val & Jeff: Thanks for your response. It wasn't clear to me from your message whether the Paces who were accepted into the Jamestown Society were from the male Pace lineage or the female lineage. You mentioned that the Pace lineages accepted were Richard Pace b. 1661 who m. Rebecca (Poythress?), John Pace, Sr. b. 1748 who m. Ann Russell and John Pace, Sr. b. 1668 who m. an Elizabeth. In these cases was the Pace ancestry accepted into the Jamestown Society? Gordon W. Pace -----Original Message----- >From: val & jeff tice <[email protected]> >Sent: Oct 9, 2008 10:29 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [PACE] Any Jamestown Society Paces? > >The most recent application I have is 2007 on the Bradford line which is the >Aycock line.
