Jenny in Australia notes - I have proved there are 2 families of RICHARD & JANE, but as yet I havent located the second marriage and my assumption about the end of one family and the start of the second is also open for review. My proof is the 1841 census which shows that there is one family at TILSTOCK which is about 2 miles south of WHITCHURCH and where the first children are born. The SECOND FAMILY is resident at Havannah Buildings, DODINGTON, (Whitchurch) ( now part of Whitchurch itself). The remaining children are born there and some are still there in the 1881 census.

There is one child born at CHEMISTRY, another small hamlet just to the north west of Whitchurch and now also part of that town, I believe this is the first of the second family who must have then moved into the Havannah Building. This couple may have moved into the area from elsewhere, if we can locate a 'Richard' born abt 1803. (He cannot be the father of Mary 1814 or Richard 1817) There is also a JOHN PACE, aged 50, (b 1791 ? ) resident in DODINGTON who is a Tailor. I think perhaps he is the son of PARKINSON PACE & Frances WILLIAMS and is really older than stated on the Census.

I have seen the burial records of several children of these families and FANNY PACE, aged 81 (b 1759 ?) who died in the Alms House, Whitchurch 24 Feb 1840. She is probably the widow of PARKINSON. I will hunt for Johns death to confirm his age.
