Margaret My name did not carry down from this line as I am descendant from Thomas Prince 1807. My name was made up from both my Nan's first names Joan and Diana -put together they came up with Joanna. Regards Joanna

John Jr's wife Ann Colborne (BVRI) Ann Colborne christened 8 Jun.1817, Horton, Dorset. Parents Isaac Colborne & Johanna. There are 7 other children of Isaac & Johanna. Let me know if you'd like them. Update, just a thought, did your name Joanna carry down from this lady?

John Jr's marriage? But age doesn't match christening. Also from BVRI: John Prince, age 22, married Ann Colborne, age 23, 15 Dec.1838, Horton, Dorset. Husband's father John Prince. Wife's father Isaac Colborne. p.s. I'm having fun here but I'm all alone. You Brits are all in bed!

Would someone please be willing to do a look up of a John Prince born in Cranborne, Dorset in 1784, as I am wondering if there is anyone else living with him, which may give me new lead Thanks Joanna
