Jane Doe 1/27/13
1829 Mar 8 Amy (Pace)Bray deeded 100a to her husband David.
The description of the property was: it lay on Fishers River bounding, among others, Edmund and Reuben Pace. I wonder if this 100a was part of Richmond's original warrant.
David Bray's father has an interesting connection to the Pace's. He served as an Ensign in Capt Dyer's Dragoons. Dyer served under Col Armstrong. I believe this is the same Dyer you mentioned as John Pace's neighbor. Must have been a tough place for a Tory.
David Bray provided bond for Edmund Pace's marriage to Sarah Walker Dec 25, 1784. If that date is correct, Edmund was only 20 years old. Was David his guardian? Alsa, son of Edmund, had his bible published in 1987.
[Birth-Parents:Bible record of Alsa Pace; Jeanette Holland Austin, com, VIRGINIA BIBLE RECORDS (n.p:n.pub,1987) p260, Bible states "Edmund Pace, son of John and Sarah 2/29/1764 and Sarah Pace, wife of Edmund Pace and daughter of David and Ann Walker b 8/1766"
The 2/29/1764 date I assume is Edmund's birth. David Walker and Sarah Pace are names you mentioned on the 1782 Tax list of Capt Dyer. Alsa Pace married Rhoda Jarvis. In the small world of Surry Co. Rhoda's father was Reziah Jarvis, Jabez's son. Reziah Jarvis' wife was the daughter of Col. William Ridge. One of Reziah's sons, Abner, married Martha Pace 9 Oct 1812.
You're right, all of these interesting family dynamics would make a great book.
