Otis G. Prentiss of Troy, Greenwood Co., SC
In checking the South Carolina Census Records Indexes, we find Otis G. Prentiss, in the 1900 Troy, Greenwood Co., SC census. He was age 27, born September, 1872. He is shown with his wife, Mary G., age 26, b. April, 1874. Children:
- Carrie M. Prentiss, b. Apr 1894, SC.
- Otis L. Prentiss b. Oct 1895, SC.
- Marshall G. Prentiss, b. Nov 1897, SC.
- Willie/William C. Prentiss, b. Jan 1900, SC.
We do not presently have a copy of the 1890 SC census, when Otis would have been about 17, and which perhaps would have identified his father.
Given his somewhat unusual first name, it seems likely he is the son of Otis Dunkin Prentiss who was born 28 Jan 1833, and about whom we have no further information.
If you have any information which can help us identify any of the folks mentioned above, please contact us at dewald@prenticenet.com..
