Maybe I've asked this before, but since this Pace is found relatively early in the records, will ask again: Who is the father of the Edward Pace whose land is mentioned as adjoining that of Thomas Todd in a 1665 land record, Elizabeth City County, Virginia? The original record image can be seen through the Library of Virginia's online archives by searching within their catalog, Land Office Patents and Grants. Of course, entering the search term" Pace" will bring up the early Pace land records, including the Richards and Georges and Isabella Perry, etc. Anyone with a .tif viewer can look at the original writing rather than transcriptions. This particular record for Thomas Todd ("Edward Paces land" mentioned within) is clear and extremely easy to read at 100% or 125% enlargement. Here is the URL for basic searches within Land Office Patents and Grants.
