This is interesting! I'm a descendant of John Pace and Susannah Houchins on
my father's side and a descendant of Michael Perkins and Winifred Rae on my
mother's side. Michael Perkins was a brother of Nancy Perkins who married
Gerard Wilkerson. I only have two sons listed for Nancy Perkins and Gerard
Wilkerson, from the Douglas Register, but I'm sure there were more children.

There is another Perkins/Pace connection. John Pace and Susannah Houchins'
daughter, Mary, married Rev. William Baskett, and their son Jesse Baskett
married, as his second wife, Susannah Perkins. Susannah Perkins and Jesse
Baskett had a son John Perkins Baskett. Susannah Perkins was the daughter
of John Perkins and Sarah Snead. John Perkins was the brother of Michael
Perkins and Nancy Perkins Wilkerson. So these Perkins/Pace/Wilkerson
families of Goochland, Louisa and Fluvanna Counties, VA, were certainly
acquainted.

Has anyone else seen this Pace/Wilkerson marriage?
