I am looking for any available information on the Mace family of Wanborough.
Eliza Mace was born in Wanborough about 1812 and apparently gave birth to a son Alfred in Wanborogh about August 1830. Eliza married John Honey in Lambourn Berkshire in December 1830 and they became the parents of my Ancestor Ambrose Honey.
I would like to confirm the parents of Eliza Mace and would appreciate any other information that can be provided on Eliza Mace's family and ancestors.
Thanks. Daryl.

Thanks very much to both of you for your kindness. :D
Anything you have on the siblings will be greatly appreciated. I was a little surprised to learn that Elizabeth was the first Mace to be baptized in Wanborough. Any indication of where the family was before that? Any indication regarding if Soloman Mace was still alive when Sarah died in 1836?

PS Would you belive this John Mace (listed as Mease) married a Martha Avenell (b 1792)1816 in Wanborough they had a son James.
My Husband is an Avenell and his ancestors came from Wanborough. We have a relative in common.
I think the Mace family may have com from Liddington Wiltshire. It is only a few miles from Wanborough. I am checking further and will let you know. Are you able to access any of the UK Census if not I could look for you.

Believe me when I say I am thrilled with the fast responses and the information provided. ;D I have access to the 1861 through 1901 British census records online but I had very little information otherwise on the Mace family. I greatly appreciate your help.
