Adria Weatherbee - I have found this to be totally confusing... According to records James H. married a Mary C. Copeland in 1875 with birth dates of 1854 and 1857, James H. in the 1880 census born 1837 and mary C. b act. 1839. If they were married in 1875 then the birth of Edward in 1870 is not right. I also have a marriage of James H. Prentice to Lucy Boswell in Jefferson OH in 1863, which makes sense, 2 children Jennie and John b. 1865 and 1870. James H. is the son of John and Ameransa. But is there another. James H. dies in 1891 and Mary C. Prentice is found in Saginaw as a widow living with other son, George Copeland and wife Sammi. Argh!

Peter Hatcher - I am the Grandson of no 4 William Alfred James Prentice and Margaret Rosina Ambrose. their family should read as follows. i Una Prentice b Oct 1939 d 21 Jul 2008 who had a daughter Carron Oddyb 6/1/1966. ii Eileen Margaret Prentice b 16/12/1943 Married Thomas Hatcher b 9/7/1930 m 12/12/1964 son Peter Thomas Hatcher b4/12/1965 I have two sons Daniel Philip Hatcher 2/5/1990 and Mathew Lee Hatcher b27/10/1993. iii William George Prentice b 12/5/1947 who has 1 son Robert James Prentice b Aug 1968 and Suzanne Prentice b 7/1/1970. Hope that fills in some gaps. My mother knows a lot more of the family history regarding the parents of my Grandfather. I also know that my great grandfather was a chimney sweep in Wincanton but I know nothing of the earlier generations and would love to know more, email me at buddysfender@gmail.com

Jim Zielinski - Hi, some updates from this ten-plus-year-old info: John Jefferson Prentice, born June 1852 in AL; died 25 March 1913 in Birmingham, Jefferson Co., AL; buried Spruce Pine Cemetery - Spruce Pine, Franklin Co., AL. It's hard to be sure about the marriage date of Rhoda and John, since I recently found a death certificate for "another" son, Robert, who died in Chattanooga. A J.J. Prentice married another lady in Gile Co., TN and I wonder if this was a FIRST marriage and Robert was THEIR child. Rhoda shows up in Burnsville, Tishomingo Co., MS 1910 Census, along with family of son John T. (H.?). John is married to Lillian H. (unknown). Robert's DC has thus: Born, Tn; Sept 19; 56 years; Died, 29 May 1930; Chattanooga, Hamilton Co., TN. Buried, Greenwood Cemetery. Brother James died in Tuscaloosa, but DC doesn't list cemetery: Died, 17 September 1935. Birth date only estimated.

William Prentice - Ahhh..this is a mess, sorry, but the Wm Prentice at 1. is the forebear of Wm Prentice at .4. The Wm Pentice at 2. who married Sarah Anne Roff and the latter offspring at 3. are unrelated to my line. Please revise this to avoid further confusion, thank you. Al is correct if you add 1. to 4. 5. and 6. I believe the Prentice /Roff side may have gone on to be the large firm of 'Prentice Builders' in Melbourne. My grandfather was a cloth merchant, he had about 5 brothers, and none were builders/carpenters, but rather opticians, chemists and traders. Yes the were all Masons in Windsor/Prahran. My grandfathers father may well have been a carpenter though, just to confuse things. Regards W.E. (Peter) Prentice Coolangatta, Australia

Tammy prentice - Hi Joe, I can tell you that the information you have below for some of the Prentice's is incorrect. i. Frank Theophilus Prentice was born in April 27 1855 in Darling Downs, Drayton, New South Wales (bdm Qld 1855/BBP1191 ), Christened 13 May 1855 and died March 6 1878 in Gayndah, QLD, Australia (bdm Qld 1878/C183) ii. Georgiana Prentice was born 5th September 1857 iii. Sarah Ann Prentice died 29th March 1919 iv. John Prentice was born Jan 26 1861 in Warwick, Queensland and died May 28th 1950 in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.(Ref 1950/B27203). The John Prentice as mentioned at No iv. is my Great Great Grandfather. It is true about them having access to both Qld and NSW certificates. Also Australia is spelt Australia not Australiaa as you have spelt in the second line of your paper. Hope this helps Tammy Prentice

julie mcdonald - I believe Thomas Prentice 1777, son of John Prentice and Euphemia Scott to be the same man who married Margaret McPherson in Gorbals 1815. Confirmation is difficult, however, Thomas's second daughter was named Euphemia Scott Prentice. Other siblings of Thomas's were living in Gorbals, Glasgow at the same time. I believe Thomas 1815, born to Thomas 1777, was my GG Grandfather. Daughter of Thomas 1815 was Annie Prentice, whose photograph I have already sent.

Karen Madoc - Although I have not yet located Thomas Prentice's family I have found records for his wife Mary Scott. Both seem to have come from New Kilpatrick, Dunbarton, Scotland or at least that is where they married 31/5/1845 and the records (Latter Day Saints) say they were then living. The Church of Scotland records state her parents as being Thomas Scott and Mary Lawson.

Sylvia Atkins - I've research this family and it appears that Charles Robert Prentice is not the Chelsea, Charles Prentice. There are two with the same name, both were shoemakers and both has connections with Westminster. If they are the same person he would have been about 14 when he married Elizabeth and would have been a bigamist when he married Sarah Brown in January 1820. Sylvia Atkins nsatkins@xtra.co.nz

Sylvia Atkins - Robert Prentice no.3 buried 16 Aug 1837 & Mary his wife 10 Sep 1832, both in Chelsea, Midsex, England. I might have found Charles Prentice (Chr. 6 Jan 1799), no 4 above 2nd marriage. Charles Prentice (Wid) & Frances Jones (Wid), 21 Oct 1833, St Mary's Lambeth, Surrey, England. There's a marriage for Frances Ames & John Jones, 19 Jul 1829, St Mary's Lambeth & a burial for John Jones 13 Jan 1833 (age 33) St Mary's Lambeth. Children from Charles Prentice's first marriage were William Daniel Prentice, b 1821 Chelsea - Born 10 Mar 1821, chr 9 Sep 1821, Chelsea Sarah Prentice, b. ??, Queenhithe. She m Benjamin Harrison - Chr 11 Jun 1824, buried 22 Dec 1824 both in Chelsea. So can't have marriage Benjamin. George Charles Prentice born 1 Aug 1828 & Mary Ann Prentice born 7 Apr 1832 both in Chelsea. Hannah Prentice, b 1813 and d early - Can't find any records, would have been born 7yrs before they married. Eliza Prentice, m. John Harrison. - Can't find any records for her. Regards Sylvia Atkins nsatkins@xtra.co.nz
