We are helping John Cornelius and Kerry Prentice with the following family. With the help of Ian Prentice by his email of 21 Jun 2002, census records and the IGI, here is what we have so far:
1. Henry Prentice was b. c. 1775-1790, probably in, or near, London, Middlesex, England.
He m. Ann (per IGI) and had:

2. Henry Prentice, b. 10 Jul 1810 and chr. 26 Aug 1810, Saint Martin In The Fields, Westminster, London. He appears in the 1851 census in St. Martin in the Fields, Middlesex, with his wife and family.
He m. Mary, b. c. 1813, Speen, Berkshire. Children per 1851 and 1881 census:

- Leonard H. Prentice, b. c. 1855, London. At home in 1861. Not in 1871 and later census.
Since Henry's middle name is "Neale," it is especially interesting that in the 1851 and 1881 household appears a cousin, Emily Neale, b. c. 1811, Speen, Birkshire.
3. Henry Neale Prentice was b. the September quarter 1842 in Westminster, Middlesex, England and d. June quarter 1928, Wandsworth, at the age of 85. At home in 1851 and 1861.
