Thanks for trying guess it's one that got away, shame he looked a really well to do man in his portrait, but I will keep an eye on the post (Brackley News Post) to see if any more info comes to light.

It's not likely that anyone knowing of him will happen to see your post, Valerie.

Do you have any other info on him to help us take a look for him? approx. age? family menbers' names?

I'm not seeing any Joseph Stace in Brackley, or anywhere in Northants in 1891 or 1901.

There are two spinster Stace sisters living in Brackley in 1901 and 1911 -- I'll post that just in case it turns out to be relevant - but that's as near as I can find;

Edith Stace
in the 1901 England Census
Name: Edith Stace
Age: 39
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1862
Relation to Head: Sister
Gender: Female
Birth Place: London, England
Civil Parish: Brackley
Ecclesiastical parish: Brackley St James and Brackley St Peter
Town: Brackley
County/Island: Northamptonshire
Country: England
Street address:
Registration district: Brackley
Sub-registration district: Brackley

Edith Stace
in the 1911 England Census
Name: Edith Stace
Age in 1911: 49
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1862
Relation to Head: Sister
Gender: Female
Birth Place: Islington, London, England

Edith Stace 49
Rosa Jane Shelswell 27 - servant


They didn't have a brother Joseph, and their father was called Perseverance.

There are no births, marriages, or deaths of a Joseph Stace in Northants at any time up to 1983, per FreeBMD.



Don't know if this is relevant or not:

Second Lieutenant Arthur Howard Bartlett STACE
Date of Death: 03/05/1919
Age: 20
Regiment/Service: Royal Air Force
Grave Reference: X. D. 1.
Cemetery: MONS (BERGEN) COMMUNAL CEMETERY
Born in Brackley the son of Harry Percy and Charlotte Amy Stace, of "The Croft", Brackley, Northants.

Arthur's father Harry Percy was a brother of Florence and Edith.

How do the unrelated family you mention know he was from Brackley?

Hi,
Wonder if anyone knows of a Joseph Stace who's family came from Brackley around the 1800's /1900's I'm asking because a family not connected to him have a portrait of him and would like to find any family still living in Brackley Northants so thay can return this portrait of him to them.
