Ramona,I haven't begun the Peace Family research yet. What I know comes from family oral history, which is that my gr-grandfather, Admon Brandon, born in Granville Co. in 1857, was related to William Peace, who donated $10,000 and land for the founding of Peace College in Raleigh.
I haven't yet made the connection.
William's parents were John Peace (b: ABT. 1743 in VA d: 18 APR 1821) and Margaret Scott (b: 1738 in Petershead, Aberdeenshire Co., Scotland; d: 2 DEC 1820).
His siblings were:
Mary "Polly" Peace; Lucy Peace b: 1770 in Bambro Plantation, Granville Co., NC; John Mask Peace b: 4 AUG 1774 in Granville Co., NC; Pleasant Peace b: 11 DEC 1775 in Granville Co., NC; Joseph Peace b: 2 APR 1776 in Granville Co., NC.
By the way, I live in New York City.
