Who are Charles Robert Prentice's Parents?

We do not yet know, but there would seem to be a good chance that Charles and his wife, Elizabeth, are the same Charles and Elizabeth who appear in our Fall 2002 article about Charles Prentice of Marylebone, London . The time frames, general locations and years of the children's birth are consistent with each other. Further investigation is needed.
