While this is being discussed, it should be remembered that this transcription does not imply that Richard Pace was transported into the colony in 1660 nor does it mean that Richard Pace lived in in York County nor does it give us any indication of Richard Pace's age, nor does it indicate that this Richard Pace was even living in 1660. It also doesn't mean that all 25 people came into the colony at the same time. The below is stating that in 1660 William Corker received land that happens to be located in York County (the location of the land - not necessarily Richard Pace's location). William Corker was submitting his paperwork for the transportation of a Richard Pace into the colony at some time before 1660. This Richard Pace could have come 20 years earlier, for example. We have no way of knowing when he came to the colony other than it was sometime before 1660.

Indeed. So far, he is just a salutary demonstration that there could have been more than one Richard Pace in Virginia at the time. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than I will be able to piece together some more information about this Richard Pace. In 1670, the tithable list of William Browne includes a servant Richard Pace. (Surry County Virginia Deed Book p. 345). Could this be the headright Richard Pace? On 7 Sept 1675, from Surry County Virginia Court Book 3: "Attachment agt. estate Rich. Pace granted Coll. Thomas Swann for 400 lbs tobacco." Who is this, I wonder? He seems to be dead. Richard Pace son of George is apparently still alive in 1675.
