Prentiss, Benjamin Mayberry
Major General Benjamin Mayberry Prentiss was sometimes called the
"Hero of the Hornet's Nest" in commemoration of the splendid manner in
which he bravely and determinedly held his assigned position at the Battle
of Shiloh, near Pittsburg Landing, in Tennessee, on April 5th & 6th, 1862.
This battle was oftened described as the "Hornet's Nest". Prentiss,
Brigadier General at the time, was finally captured, together with most of
his command, on the second day of the battle.
Benjamin Mayberyy Prentiss was born at Bellville, in what is now the state
of West Virginia, on November 23, 1819 and died at Bethany, MO., on Febuary *,
1901. If anyone has any other information on this person, or how they are
related, if they are, to me, I would appreciate it. I got this material
from "American Nicknames" and "Reminiscenses of the Civil War"

Henry Hamilton Prentice, my great-great-grandfather, was born on
St Kitts, West Indies, in April 1807. He was a ship's steward and his
Seaman's ticket of 1846 describes him as "a man of colour". He married
Ann Jane McKenzie of Greenock, Scotland and emigrated to Brisbane,
Australia in about 1849. He disappeared in about 1863. We believe his
paternal line to have been Scottish. Another clue may be the prevalence
of "Henry" and "Clement Philip" as names in the family. Can anyone offer
any assistance or advice?
