1. William B. Prentice was b. c. 1916, Paterson, NJ, and d. 23 Oct 2006 in Bel Air, MD. His Obituary, published 20 Nov 2006 in the Home Town News, East Brunswick, NJ, reads as follows:

    WILLIAM B. PRENTICE, 90, of Whiting, MANCHESTER, died Monday, Oct. 23, in Bel Air, Md. Born in Paterson, he lived in Wanaque before moving to Crestwood Village V in 1975.

    He was employed as a credit collector with PSE&G, Paterson, for 40 years until his retirement. He was a U.S. Army veteran of World War II and was a member of V.F.W. Post 8745, Whiting. William was a former communicant of St. Francis of Assisi Church, where he was a member of the Holy Name Society. He was a current communicant of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Roman Catholic Church, Whiting. He was an avid poker player and also enjoyed playing Bocce Ball.

    He was predeceased by his wife, Jean Runz Prentice, in 2001; and a daughter, Carol Ann Nagy, in 1990. William is survived by a daughter and son-in-law, Susan and Faust Miraglia of Forest Hill, Md.

    A Memorial Mass will be celebrated at 11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 18, at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton R.C. Church, Whiting. Carmona-Bolen Home For Funerals, Whiting, is in charge of arrangements.

Who are William B. Prentice's Parents?

Since William was b. in 1916, we reviewed the 1920 and 1930 census to see if he was listed with his parents. There was no listing in either the 1920 or 1930 census. We tried a search on those records for any birth or residence in Paterson, NJ, with negative results.

Investigation is continuing.
