The emigration to Canada was in 1908. Alfred died in 1904 and Emma decided to go to Canada. Neither the Grays nor the Canadian branches now know why she wanted to go. Ernest Henry, William and Sarah Cattling travelled with her. Emma wanted my great grandparents Alfred John William and Alice Henrietta to go too but they didn't want to leave the rest of the family and so stayed in Grays. My grandmother although only a young girl at the time, was living away in service and only knew that her parents weren't interested in leaving England.

Who are Joseph Prentice's Parents?

One of his grandchildren was given the name "Golden Prentice" which suggests he may be a descendant of the men named Golden or Golding Prentice. One of the daughters of a Golden and Susannah Prentice of South Benfleet, Maud Prentice, b. 1879, went to live in Grays Thurrock about 1899/1900. She lived at 81 The High Street, Grays which is where Pat Done's Prentices were living at the time.

In our PRENTICE NEWSLETTER, we have two articles in our PRENTICE NEWSLETTER involving men named Golden Prentice:

William Prentice of Stoke, England

2. Prentices of the Colnes, England

So far we have been unable to connect either of those lines to Joseph Prentice.
