A One Name Studies Project |
Welcome!
This sub-project of the One Name Studies Project is for anyone working on or interested in profiles from any country or era which have the Prentice / Prentiss / Prentis surname.
- Goal: To collect together in one place everything about Prentice / Prentiss / Prentis and the other variants of the name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect.
Please contact the Study's coordinator Ronald Prentice or post a comment at the foot of the page. If you have any questions, just ask.
Enjoy!

As I reviewed the dates and places mentioned, I recalled this man https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Prentis-123 or Robert Prentis (I created the profile today in hopes it would help) who traveled among the British West Indies from ca 1785 to ca 1810. He might be a candidate for your search. He is not one of my relatives, so I don't have much further information, but feel free to ask any questions and I'll see if there is any additional details in my notes.
