I can't find a search feature to see if info has already been posted. My family came from Princeton on the Bonavista. I have viewed the info here but in spite of having settled in the area in the late 1700's there is very little Prince family information. Info is appreciated. |

Hello Paul, So good to read your email. Your Charles Prince was my grandmother’s brother. My grandmother was Rebecca Prince, b. 1889 Seal Cove. I grew up in Oakville Ontario where I always heard many stories of the various Prince relatives. It was a big family! Charles was a skilled carpenter, as was my grandfather John Prince (son of Samual Prince and Rebecca Brown) so my grandmother was a Prince before marrying a Prince. In summer of 2018, I was in Nfld and found the grave of the first Prince John and his wife Mary, buried at Tickle Cove. If you know anything about him, please let me know. I think I have been in touch with some of your family over the years: Laurie and Warren Prince. My father was George Dalton “Dalt” Prince with a brother Jack and a sister Isabel. They are all gone now. I’d love to hear more of your family research. My best, Ann |

Hello Ann, I am sorry for the delay in coming back to this site and seeing your response. Are you Ann Stevens? Warren was a cousin. He was the son of my grandfather, Robert, brother Charles. I remember his name but nothing else. I have done a lot of research and put it in FamilySearch.org. Check it out. I visited Princeton in 2013. I was supposed to go back this summer but obviously couldn't. Maybe next year. I live in London, On. |
