Stephen Pace family, Harlan, KY, c. 1912

Hi Roy,

I'm attaching a photo believed taken around 1912 in Harlan Co., Ky, probably on Martin's Fork since that is where these people all lived.

They are as follows:

Back row: Sam Pace, son of Stephen Pace, Icey Pace Dillman, sister of Stephen & wife of Joe Dillman, holding her daughter Mary Dillman, Joe Dillman, son of Sarah Dillman Pace & stepson of Stephen Pace, holding his son Willis Dillman, James Thomas Pace, son of Stephen Pace, and Sarah Dillman Pace, wife of Stephen Pace.

Front row: Unknown little girl believed to be a visiting friend, Ether Pace, Mae Pace, Lillian or Lily Pace, Polly Pace. All of these girls are the daughters of Stephen Pace and Sarah Dillman Pace.

 My line is:

John Pace m. Sarah Burgh (or Pope)

Stephen Pace m. 1) Nancy Walker 2)Lucy Unknown Walker, widow of Joseph Walker & sister-in-law of Nancy

Edmond Pace m. Frances "Frankie" Elizabeth Smith

John Pace m. Joicy Shackleford, daughter of Robert Shackleford & Rachel Lee

Stephen Pace m. Sarah Dillman

Sam Pace m. Sally Fee, daughter of Abner C. Fee & Amanda Fee (maiden name same as married name -first cousins)

Anna Ruth Pace m. Walter M. Hounshell, son of Albert Hounshell & Hattie Martin

Brenda Gail Hounshell m. Dale Mitchell, son of Warren Mitchell & Betty Willsey

The children pictured married as follows:

• Ether Pace married Homer Spurlock

• Mae Pace married Harrison Fee

• Lilly Pace married Sampson Hensley

• Polly Pace married Leonard "Jack" Scott

• Mary Dillman married Robert Wilder

• Willis Dillman married May Young

• Jim Pace married Cornie Lee McAfee

Of all those pictured, only Ether Pace Spurlock (97 yrs old) and Mary Dillman Wilder (87 years old) are still living.
