Roy Johnson's lineage traced to John Pace of Middlesex
I have carefully verified data back to and including the family group of Joseph Nicholas Pace (1836-1910). The straight line ancestry back to John Pace (1722-1790) has been verified by census records but dates, children, siblings, etc., have not. The lineage back to John Pace of Middlesex has been verified by others whose research I respect, but I have not personally seen the sources. That's a future project.

Note: Francis Pace is sometimes listed as "Francis X. Pace." This is an error caused by the practice of placing the X in the middle between the names when someone was illiterate. I have information from a member of my line who has seen the actual signature that this error came from the fact that he could not write and signed his name with an "X". On the document, it was like this:
His
Francis X Pace --the "His Mark" part was very dim;
therefore the error.
Mark
(Note: On some browsers, the "His Mark" may not be properly placed. It should be above and below the "X")
