Sarah "Sallie" Mace(1) was
born about 1809. I, Danny A. McBee, have seen some information that has been
put in Ancestry.Com that suggests that James McFalls was married to Sarah Dickson
who was born in 1810 in Burke County, North Carolina and she died on December
9, 1871 in Clintwood, Virginia. I, Danny A. McBee, have seen the marriage certificate
that shows that James was married to Sarah Mase
(Mace). I am not sure as to the marriage to Sarah Dickson. [January 2, 2000].

Abraham Mace(1) was born about 1820.
He died on 16 Sep 1864 in Elmira, New York. This could possibly be the Abraham
Mace who died in Elmira, New York in the
prison camp instead of his 15 year nephew Abraham Mace as I had originally
thought. I will do more research and find out for sure. This Abraham Mace
fought and died in the Civil War. He was a private in Co. D, 11th Regiment,
N. C. He is buried in Woodlawn National Cemetery, Elmira, N. Y., 305W.N.C.
How sad to lose a brother in the war. No doubt, many of the Mace family
grieved over the loss of Abraham who died so many miles away.

on 20 Mar 1825 in Mitchell County, North Carolina. He died on 7 Jun 1899 in
