Update of 6 Sep 2008: Charles F. Prentice is #47.1 in our Robert Prentice eBook. That material now replaces this article.
1. Charles F. Prentice was b. c. May 1881, Lawrence, KS. He appears at age 19, unmarried, in the 1900 census in Post Oak, Johnson Co., MO, as the manager of a Creamery. 1910 census in Norton, Norton Co., KS as a Creamery Superintendent. He appears in the 1920 census in Denver, Denver So., Co., as the General Superintent of a Creamery with his wife and family. He appears with his family in the 1930 Denver census.
He m. Emma/Illa Hines on 28 Oct 1903. Emma was b. c. 1885 in KS with both parents b. in KS.T heir wedding was reported as follows:
- Nortonville Sentinel, Friday, October 30, 1903
Albert Hines and Miss Iva DeGraw and Charles Prentice and Miss Emma Hines were married Wednesday. Mr. Hines and Miss Emma Hines are son and daughter of J. D. Hines, formerly of Winchester.
Mr. Prentice was formerly manager of the creamery here, but is now traveling for the Continental Creamery Company with headquarters at Great Bend [Barton Co., KS]. A reception was held at the Hines home in Soldier Wednesday night. The hosts of friends of both couples join us in congratulations.
Nortonville lies on the north edge of Jefferson County and quite close to the Atchison County line.
Children of Charles and Emma:
- Dorothy L. Prentice, b. c. 1906, KS. At home in Denver, CO., in the 1920 census. She m. Mr. Adair and in the
1930 Denver census is living with her parents, without her husband, and son:
- Thadeus C. Adair, b. c. 1928, CO.
- Charles Kenneth "Kenneth". Prentice, b. c. 1908, KS. At home in Denver, CO., in the 1920 and 1930 census.
There is some confusion in census reocrds. The 1900 census says both parents were b. in KS. The 1910 census says both parents were b. in VA. The 1920 census says his father was b. in CT and mother in VA.
