To West Country Las.Yes these are my Aunt and Uncle, Daisy my mum. The baby Ellen died at a month old.Yes Grandad married his cousin she bought me up as mum was unmarried.There seems to be other Prangles with same names who seem unconnected.Thomas was a groom/jockey.perhaps he rode off into the sunset. I inherited his interest and taught house riding for 35yrs,

Doreen neither Sophie nor I could find out what happened to Thomas although it does look like Sophie found him with his parents.
The only thing I can think of is he left the country or changed his name.
