1. Zelotus Prentice appears as Zeloties Prentis in the 1810 Washington Co., NY census. He also appears in the 1820 and 1830 Hartford, Washington Co., NY census.

• In the 1810 census Zelotus and his wife are under 45 years of age (born after 1765) with a son under 10 (b. 1800-1810) and another son 10-16 (b. 1794-1800)

• In the 1830 census Zelotes and his wife are shown as ages 50-60 (born 1760-70) with a daughter, age 15-20 (born 1810-15).

From the 1810 and 1830 year spans, we can infer that Zelotus was likely b. between 1765 and 1770.

He is perhaps too young to be a son of the Reuben Prentis , b. c. 1765, who also appears in the 1800 Washington Co., NY census, but he might be a brother. (See article on Reuben Prentis.)

Zelotus might also be a brother to Pierce Prentice who appears in the 1800 Washington Co., NY census for whom no parents have been identified. (See article on Pierce Prentice.)
