Using the records available from Records Office in Glascow, Scotland, and the information contained in the website of Fraser Hamilton and Anne Prentice Christie at Fraser Hamilton, and particularly their comprehensive Prentice pages beginning at Prentice , as well as much additional information provided by Arch Prentice in his email of 26 Nov 2007, we have compiled the following tentative family tree for John Prentice of Carluke, Scotland.

A word of caution: the tree is based solely on the possibility of family relationships because of similarity of names and proximaty of dates and locations. If you know of any errors, please contact us so that we may correct them.

Glasgow, Scotland records contain extensive birth and christening records for various towns in Scotland beginning in the 1600s. The first entries for the town of Carluke begin with the entries for the children of John Prentice (wife's name not given) on 28 Jan 1700. He is likely the John Prentice named by Glasgow records, as the father of the following children christened at Carluke:

1. Christen Prentice, chr. 28 Jan 1700.
2. James Prentice, chr. 9 Mar 1701.
3. Jean Prentice, chr. 26 Oct 1701.
4. John Prentice, chr. 6 Jun 1703.
5. Henry Prentice, chr. 7 Aug 1703.
6. Jannet Prentice, chr. 29 Jul 1705.
7. Thomas Prentice, chr. 9 Jan 1709.
8. Jannet Prentice, chr. 20 Aug 1710.
9. Thomas Prentice, chr. 12 Mar 1710.
10. James Prentice, chr. 14 Jun 1713.
11. Jannet Prentice, chr. 19 Jul 1713.
12. Alexander Prentice, chr. 12 Feb 1716.
13. John Prentice, chr. 8 Feb 1719.
14. Jean Prentice, chr. 28 Aug 1720.

There was also a John Prentice who was born in Carluke; he was chr. 25 Jan 1702, son of James Prentice. He may be the same person as John Prentice who is #1 in our Fall 2008 article entitled Roberrt Prentice of New Monkland, Lanarkshire, Scotland . He m. Marion Hastie

A. John Prentice, b. c. 1670, probably Scotland.

He m. Margaret Hamilton on 18 Sep 1698, Stonehouse. Although not yet documented, they may be the parents of:

1. John Prentice, b. c. 7 Sep 1698, Scotland. . . . . . . . . . . [1]

2. Andrew Prentice, b. c. 1729, Scotland. For his family, see our Fall 2002 article entitled Prentices of Stonehouse, Lanarkshire, Scotland .

1. John Prentice, b. c. 7 Sep 1698, Scotland.

He m. Marion Whitelaw and had (per IGI)

1. James Prentice, b. 11 Mar 1722, Carluke. . . . . . . . . . . [2]
2. Thomas Prentice, 10 Sep 1724, Carluke. . . . . . . . . . . . ]3]

Note: There may be some uncertainty whether James, above, is the son of John Prentice and Marion Whitelaw. That information comes from an LDS Pedigree Resource File which shows James as b. 1 Mar 1722, Carluke, son of John Prentice and Marion Whitelaw; it also shows that same 1722 James Prentice as marrying Elizabeth Reid in 1740 in Carluke. That information needs closer scrutiny for at least 2 reasons:
1. That record does not cite any specific original source document, and
2. James' birth date, said to be 1722, makes him some 9 years younger than Elizabeth who is given a birth date of 1713. A husband that much younger is unusual, but not unheard of.

Another researcher, suggests the possibility that James Prentice might be the son of John Prentice (b. 1684) and Margaret Fram (b. 1688) who are shown in the IGI as having a son, James Prentice, b. 6 Jun 1713 in Carluke. While it brings the birth dates of James and Elizabeth closer together, that IGI record does not cite any specific original source document showing that he is the one who m. Elizabeth.

What needs to be done is to locate an original source document which identifies the parents of the James Prentice who m. Elizabeth Reid.

2. James Prentice, b. either 6 Jun 1713 or 11 Mar 1722 (see "Note" above), Carluke. He married Elizabeth Reid on 11 May 1740, Carluke. She was b. 25 Dec 1713, Carluke. She was christened on 3 Jan 1714 in , Carluke. Children:

At the time ofhis death in 1861, Robert was a Stocking Weaver.

Robert m. Agnes Margaret Peters. We have conflicting information about her birth: (1) one source says she was b. 1789, Carluke or Cambusnethan. (2) another source says she was b. c. 1786, New Kilpatrick, Bumbarton. She d. 31 Jan 1855, Dalserf, Lanarkshire.before 1861 as Robert was called a widower at the time of his death. Their children included:

4.1B. Thomas Prentice, b. c. 1816, Glasgow (a suburb of Glasgow), Lanarkshire (per 1871 census) and d. 1874 in Partick, Lanark (per Death Register).(per Julie McDonald, emails, 21 Sep 2009 and 5 Sep 2012).

Thomas appears in the following census records:

1. He appears with his wife and children in the 1851 census living at 7 Greenend in the town of Greenend, Old Monkland Civil Parish. His occupation was listed as "Hammerman." A "Hammerman" is identified in Scotsfamily.com/occupations as a "Metal worker, a smith."

2. He appears with his family in the 1861 census living at 2 Locks Row, Old Monkland where he is called a "Labourer." Thomas and his family later appear in the 1871 census living at Greenend No. 35, Old Monkland, where he is called a "Labourer." He is not listed in the 1881 census when he would have been about 65, perhaps indicating he was by then deceased..

This Thomas Prentice of Glasgow must be distinguished from another Thomas Prentice, a Weaver, in Old Monkland who also had a wife named Mary.

In the 1870 marriage record of his daughter, Anne, he is called a Blacksmith and in the death record of his dau., Mary, he was called a "mineral labourer (per Julie McDonald, email, 4 Jan 2009).

It stands in an isolated windswept position on the Somme - with absolutely no facilities for visitors and nothing to explain what happened in 1916. A high proportion of the names at Thiepval are soldiers who died on 1st July 1916 – the first day of the Battle of the Somme. All that visitors find are 600 British and French graves and the names of 72,000 British soldiers carved into the stone of this massive memorial, designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens

6. Isobel Prentice,chr. 5 Oct 1783, Carluke.

6. John Prentice, b. 11 Aug 1758, Cambusnethan. There are 2 possibilities as to his marriage and family:

1. Based on John's Cambusnethan place of birth, and the Cambusnethan birth of children, John may be the John Prentice who m. Agnes Dalziel and had:
   1. Robert Prentice, b. 24 Jan 1783, Cambusnethan.
   2. Alexander Prentice, b. 9 Nov 1784, Cambusnethan. He is probably the Alexander Prentice who m. Cicilia Haddow and had:
      1. Agnes Prentice, chr. 4 Sep 1808, Cambusnethan.
      2. John Prentice, chr. 7 Jul 1812, Cambusnethan. He may be the John Prentice who m. Janet Reid (see Thomas Prentice of Cambusnethan in our Fall 1999 issue for descendants).
      3. Alexander Prentice, chr. 11 Jul 1813, Cambusnethan.
      4. Mary Prentice, chr. 12 Aug 1815. Cambusnethan. She may, or may not, be the Mary Prentice discussed in our Spring 2000 article about Mary Prentice of Cambusnethan, Scotland .
2. Or, because John is the son of Thomas and because the names "Robert" and "Alexander", above, do not follow conventional Scottish naming patterns, Christine Hadden's email of 16 Aug 2003 suggests that John may have m. Grisal Hervy, aka Grisald Harvie on 18 Jan 1784, Hamilton, or 5 Feb 1784, Lesmahagow. He was a grave digger and church warden. Glasgow records show the following children born to John Prentice and Grisal Hervy (also called Grisald Harvie):
   1. Thomas Prentice, b. 26 Mar 1785 and died in infancy.
   2. Robert Prentice, b. 13 Feb 1787 and died in infancy.
   3. Archibald Prentice, chr. 15 Mar 1789, Dalziel. He m. Catherine Mackie 8 Feb 1813, Dalziel. . . .[12]
   4. Isabelle Prentice, chr. 24 Apr 1791, Dalziel.

He m. Jane McKeown, b. 1834, Dalry. Living with the family in the 1881 census is her father, William McKeown, b. c. 1807, Dalry. Children:

1. Edward Prentice, b. c. 1869, Dalry, Ayrshire. At home in Dalry in the 1881 census. Not in 1891 census. He is probably the Edward Prentice shown in the 1901 Motherwell census as b. c 1869 "Dabay, Ayrshire", apparently incorrectly transcribed, with his wife Margaret/Maggie, b. c. 1872, Dalry/Dabay, Ayrshire. Children:

9.2 Norman Prentice, b. c. 1836, Edinburgh (per his children's birth certificated). His father was b. 18 May 1804 Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, but by 1851 was living Edinburgh St. Cuthbert. Norman does not appear in the 1861 or 1871 census. His absence from the 1861 and 1871 census would be consistent with his being the Norman Prentice who appears in our Spring 2003 PRENTICE NEWSLETTER article at Norman Prentice of Port Chalmers, NZ . Norman's occupation was listed as "surveyor".

The following information is provided by Rowan Gibbs email of 11 Nov 2009. It reads in part, and with some rearranging, as follows:

". . . There was no trace of a Norman Prentys in New Zealand but certainly a Norman PRENTICE and he was indeed a surveyor in the Province of Otago. He arrived in Port Chalmers (the port of the city of Dunedin in Otago) on August 20th 1860 on the ship ‘Pladda’ from Glasgow, Scotland.

"Otago Witness Saturday August 4 1860 page 4: The agents of the provincial Government of Otago despatched the ladda," a first-class ship, from Clyde, on the 26th April, with a full complement of cabin and steerage passengers. In the cabin were two surveyors, the first of a series proceeding to Otago at the special request of the Government, for the purpose of laying off the districts of the province still unsurveyed."

Norman and Rosa had a daughter Elsie Prentice born Musselburgh, Dunedin 9 Oct 1878. The birth cert gives Norman’s age as 43 and Rosa’s as 30. [Tbey also had] a son Roland Prentice, born Invercargill 13 May 1881 Neither child was registered with a middle name

"Norman worked as a surveyor in Dunedin until the late 1870s, producing a number of maps and plans for the Otago. Most are held in the Hocken Library in Dunedin and are listed in their catalogue http://otago.lconz.ac.nz

"The family moved south to Invercargill in 1880. Norman is recorded as owning land and went bankrupt 3 March 1883 but continued working as a surveyor. He is listed Mataura Ensign 7 Jan. 1887 p.6 as resigning as Wyndham Town Board surveyor and a clearance auction of his household effects is advertised 5 April 1887 p.3. In June 1887 he was gazetted as a licensed surveyor in Melbourne (Vic Govt Gazette, No.50, June 10 1887 p.1774), so the whole family presumably moved to Australia at that time. http://www.portphillip.vic.gov.au/default/CommunityGovernanceDocuments/38_Byron_Street.pdf House at 38 Byron St, Port Phillip, where Norman lived in 1891

"Norman probably died in the late 1890s and Rosa and the two children then moved to England. Both children living with the mother in Essex in 1901 UK census [surname as Prentice]."

That Norman Prentice m. Rose Frances Nixson 4 Apr 1877 at the Anglican Holy Trinity Church at Port Chalmers, NZ. Rosa was born 10 Apr 1846 in Bayswater, London (baptised 14 Dec 1864 [sic] along with her younger brothers John Pym Nixson, born 10 April 1848, and Albert Nelson Nixson, born 16 Oct. 1849), daughter of Francis Nixson (“Gentleman”) and Maria(n) (née Potter) of Porchester Lodge, Bayswater. [she signs Arthur Francis’ wedding cert. as MariaN].

Rosa sailed to Melbourne, Australia, on the ship ‘Clarence’ arriving at Port Phillip 27 Jan 1871. She travelled with her older brother Joseph Francis Nixson and the Pollon family, including Kate who married Joseph; they also settled in Otago. Rosa and Joseph sailed immediately to New Zealand on the ‘Tararua’, leaving 28 Jan. 1871 and reaching New Zealand in February.

Children of Norman and Rosa:

1. Elsie Pym Prentice (later changed to Elsie Pym Prentys), b. c. 1879, New Zealand. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .[9.3]
2. Roland Pym Prentice (later changed to Roland Pym Prentys), b. 4 May 1880 in New Zealand. . . . . . [9.4]

9.3 Elsie Pym Prentice (later changed to Elsie Pym Prentys), b. c. 1879, Otago, New Zealand, and d. 7 Nov 1960 at 67 Roland House, Old Brompton Road, London S.W.7 (death notice, Times, 9 Nov 1960, p.1).

The following information is provided by Rowan Gibbs email of 11 Nov 2009. It reads, in part, and with some rearranging, as follows:

"I am interested in New Zealand born novelists (of whom there are a surprising number) and have been trying for some years to get reliable biographical information on a writer listed by the Library of Congress as THORNTON-COOK, Elsie Prentys, 1889-1960, and by the British Library as both that and as PRENTYS, Elsie Pym, 1879-. I was sure they were the same person, despite the differing names and birth dates.

"The information I had [about Elsie] was this from the 1966 Encyclopedia of New Zealand: “[She] has published a number of historical novels, was born in Otago and spent a few years on the stage in Australia before turning to journalism in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, and England. During the First World War she worked in the Royal Arsenal and during the Second World War in an intelligence section. Among her books about royalty and famous people are The Romance of the Queens of England, Royal Elizabeths, The Coronation Book of George VI and Queen Elizabeth, Thomas and Jane Carlyle, and Charles and Mary Lamb”

"and this from a 1910 magazine: “Mrs Thornton Cook, who writes under the pen name of E. P. Prentys and “Maorilandia”, is doing a little work in England, and also contributing to several colonial papers. Her latest book, ‘French for daily use’, has just been published in London.”

"Recently I found a copy of one of her books in the original dust jacket and on the flap it had the following note: Elsie Thornton Cook was born in Otago, daughter of the late Norman Prentys of the Geological Survey; educated privately; became a child actor in Australia, and later a journalist in Australia, New Zealand and America. Has lived in England since the beginning of the war [i.e. World War I].

"Rosa travelled from Sydney to Victoria, B.C., Canada on the Marama in 1909, arriving 19 October, giving her destination as London and stating she had previously visited Canada (Montreal) for four days in 1908. In the 1910 US Census he is listed as living with Roland in California. She died in London 1912.

Elsie married John Thornton Cook in Hackney, London, on 21 Jul 1908. Her name given as Elsie Pym Prentys, age as 28 (b. c. 1880), and residence at time of marriage is given as Chicago. John's was shown as age 29 (b. c. 1879), “insurance broker” . He was probably the author of How to Work Insurance Agencies to Increase One’s Income and to Earn a Good Living. London: Guilbert Pitman, 1909. 94pp. He died Mar 1909 Holborn, London, at the age of only 30 years. (Ref: Rowan Gibbs, email, 11 Nov 2009)

John Thornton Cook appears in the 1891 census in Islington, London, as b. c. 1880, Stamford, Hill, London, son of John Williams Cook (b. c. 1849, Minories, London) and Marian Agnes Gerrish (b. c. 1851, Banbury, Oxfordshire). An Ancestor Chart for John Thornton Cook can be found at Ancestry.com .

9.4 Roland Pym Prentice (later changed to Roland Pym Prentys), b. 4 May 1880 in New Zealand and d. 26 Dec 1947 in Monterey Co., CA, at the age of 67 years.

Some years after Roland's birth in New Zealand, and before 1901, Roland and his mother returned to England before 1901 where they appear in the 1901 census in Loughton, Essex, England.

In 1902, Roland and his mother, Rosa, left England and emigrated to the United States (per 1920 census). He later appears in the 1910 acensus in Oakland, CA and 1920 San Francisco, CA census without wife or children. However, living with him in 1910 was his mother, Rosa F., b. c. 1846 in England. She does not appear in his home in the 1920 census when should would have been about 74 years of age and might by then be deceased (see 1912 death of a Rosa F. Prentys in Strand, England, below)..

Roland does not appear in the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) nor does he appear in California Death Records (CDR).

A search of St. Catherine's Index of Deaths in England beginning in 1837 showed only 2 Prentys deaths:

1. Jun Quarter, 1867, Thomas Prentys, 50 (b. c. 1817), Strand
2. Dec Quarter, 1912, Rosa F. Prentys, 66 (b. c. 1846), Strand.

Since Roland's mother, Rosa F., appears in the 1910 Oakland census but not in the 1920 census, one could reasonably infer that Rosa F. may well have returned to England before 1812 and is the same Rosa F. Prentys who died in the Dec Quarter, 1912 in Strand.

The following information is from Rowan Gibbs email of 11 Nov 2009. It reads, in part, and with some rearranging, as follows:

"In 1908 [then living in Alameda, California, he participated in] the 20 year Pistol Champion of America. Following are newspaper accounts::
"Mr Roland Prentys, who... won the 20 yds Pistol Championship of America last week, is a native of Southland, his father having been a well known member of the survey staff under the Provincial Government of Otago” -- Feilding Star, 8 June 1908,p.1"

“...Roland P. Prentys is a thorough colonial. He was born in Invercargill, Southland, in 1881, and spent his childhood in Dunedin and various parts of New Zealand. For 12 years or more, before business took him across the water to the States, he was resident in Victoria, Australia. His intention is to return shortly to his native land, where he hopes to make his name equally prominent...” -- Otago Witness 10 June 1908 p.58

“Local Shooters Establish A World’s Record - With a score of 1.131, made in an indoor revolver match against the Belleville revolver club last Thursday, the San Francisco team established a world’s record. Five men took part in the shoot, thereby making an average of a fraction better than 226. Nothing like this record has been made before and the San Franciscans are now recognised as the champion revolver shots of the world. The following marksmen took place in the record breaking match … Roland Prentys… – San Francisco Call 16 Jan. 1910 [further references at http://cbsr.tabbec.com/]

He served in WW1 as a private in 2nd Canadian Mounted Rifles and then as a 2nd Lieut. in the 3rd Royal Sussex Regt, Royal Field Artillery (M.I.D. 1917), unmarried, profession engineer. Rowan Gibbs email of 12 Nov 2009 provides the following additional information:

A brief extract here from the Official War Diary of the 77th Brigade listing him as wounded ( Great War Forum :
Gournier Farm 12 October 1917: Several casualties occurred in the Brigade during the day. Major H. E. Pitt, Capt. R. P. Prentys, http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=124341&pid=11952nd Lt J. C Chaytor wounded. No. 13442 Sgt Hawkins, W., No. 13655 Bomb. Clarke, W, No. 658325 Cpl. Howat, W J killed. 13 OR wounded.
This was during First Battle of Passchendaele: on 12 October there were 13,000 Allied casualties, including more than 2,700 New Zealanders, over 800 killed."

His WW2 U.S. draft card states married, living Belvedere, California, employed by National Lead Company in San Francisco. Died Monterey, California, 26 Dec 1947.

Roland m Margaret Mesfield on 16 Apr 1921 (age 21, b. c. 1900), Sausalito, Marin Co., CA per Rowan Gibbs citing Marin Journal newpaper item. However, he also notes that there is a Margaret N. Prentys on the California Death Index shown as b. 5 Nov 1876, mother’s maiden name Mahoney, and who d. 9 July 1965 in Marin It is unclear if this the same Margaret since she would have been 45, not 21, at the of the 1921 marriage.

10. Euphemia Prentice, b. 18 Jun 1788 Carluke. By email of 17 Feb 2001, Ann Bernstein relates that Euphemia d. 2 Mar 1865 (SR) in Carluke and that she m. James Graham on 2 July 1808 (OPR). Euphemia's parents are identified in her death record which was witnessed by her husband, James Graham (per Ann Bernstein, email, 23 Feb 2005).

Note: Euphemia Prentice is not to be confused with the Euphemia Prentice, b. c. 1794 and who d. 24 Nov 1858 (age 64) and who 1st David Masterson, b. c. 1793 and who d. 1 Oct 1837 aged 44 years, and who may have m. 2nd a Mr. Brownlee.
