Mace Family Genealogy Forum
  
Hello. I do not know anything of your immediate Maces of the late 19th century, but Maces came to Rockingham bet 1752 and 1754-most likely 1754 where brothers and Nicholas and Henry first show up on record. There was a third brother, John, who was killed in NC by Indians with all his family but for a son Jacob who then came up to Hardy Co. They were French Huguenots and I think the name became Mace from something else after they got to Pa., probably the Lebanon/Dauphin county area.From Rockingham Nicholas and Henry moved to Hardy, but at least one Mace stayed behind, Henry, and he lived to at least 1830 and was about 80 at the time. Sr. Henry was killed in 1781 in a short lived rebellion. Nicholas died in 1803. Children of these two brothers went to Randolph Co., WV and then to other areas like Tn, Oh, Mo and further. Bill
