Lois: I believe that the John Pace in Nottoway County 1815 was John Pace (John,JohnJr.,John of Middlesex) I would like more info.-- for other than census records the info is sparce. When I first saw your post I missed John Anderson surety for the marriage of John Pace and Elizabeth P maybe Smith or Swift. This may be the son of John who was a large land owner (over 700 acres) who was a brother of William Pace who also held over 700 acres in Amelia County Va. Their land along with the Sheltons was on the Nottaway. If this John is of this lineage his brother would be Newsome who married Lucy. Very little is known of this family so it sparks my interest. Do you get to Nottoway County Court House? Jack Pace / Wmsburg, Va.
