I believe that Richard Pace as well as Isabella Smyth Pace recieved 100 acreas each as early planters. After Richard had died and she married Perry both George as heir apparent, and Isabella as orginal patents re-patented these same acres in now Surry County at Pace's Paines. She was a land owner. In fact she also added 100 acres of Chapmans who also was orginal patent holder. There are those who hold no proof that believe that Chapman and Perry were related. If I recall Mrs Perry and Infant and Chapman were listed in Jamestown together after the Massacure. Jack Pace / Williamsburg, Va. On Sat, 17 Jun 2006 16:45:12 -0500 "Nancy W.
