I've been going through Frances Coakley's pages---I might add they are extremely interesting and what a lot of work. There is some info on Lace in this address
http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Contrib/manx/famhist/fhsjfam.htm. It doesn't include Charles Henry, but may provide some info for advancement in research. Also, I am wondering, as I went through the Brown's directory, if the name Leece is a derivative of Lace. Would anyone know?
