Orange Co formed in 1752, from Bladen, Granville, and Johnston Think this will need more investigation ... we sure should talk Darrell into DNA if he qualifies... There is a : Jos B Pace on 1800 Census Orange Co NC 1 male age 45 years & older be born abt 1755 or ealier So if he is Jos B Pace he could be from England ?? 1 male age 26-45 b- abt 1774to 1755 so is this Joseph B or is the male abv Joseph B Pace SR.? 1 female under 5 1 Female 26-45 may be wife of 2nd male born 26-45 1790 Census does not show any Pace's in Orange Co NC cked all of NC and no Joseph Pace in NC but he might be in his father HH so maybe this Joseph from England but just incase William Pace is the Joseph B Pace in Orange Co N C Theses are the William Pace's listed on the 1790 Census in NC Two William Pace's in Franklin Co NC Two William Pace's in Northampton NC One William Pace in Nash Co NC ----- Original Message ----- From: "darlene" <darlene@adweb.net> To: <PACE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 10:46 AM Subject: Re: [PACE-L] Joseph B.
