Title: PRIOR family - Alice Prior (Carter)/Samuel Prior
Post by: ringy on Monday 31 August 09 22:11 BST (UK)
I am the great great great grandchild of Alice and Samuel Prior! I live in Copenhagen.

As far as I know, Alice Prior (Carter) and Samuel Prior had 6 children:

Hepzibah, Sidney, Edgar, Victor, Leonard and Bertram.
Victor Ivor Prior was my great great grandfather, born in 1902 and died in 1979, the year I was born. He married Ivy May Stevens, who died when she was just 37. They had 1 child together, my grandmother who currently lives in Berkshire. Later, Victor remarried to a 'Connie'. Information runs dry there!

Samuel Prior died in 1928/9 and Alice Prior remarried a man named Mr. Levitt when she was 75. I have no further information there either. Alice had a sister called 'Hattie', who had son called Len. I don't have much there either.  ::)

Would be very interesting to hear from anyone. I saw that user 'Ringrose' had some information.

The marriage index on Ancestry records that a Victor I Prior married in the 1st qtr of 1940 in the Brentford district (3a 1198) to Victor C D Richardson!

I wonder if she was actually Victoria - known as Connie - or if they somehow mixed up Victor's first name into hers??

The same source has an Alice Prior marrying William J LEVETT - 3rd qtr of 1931 in Fulham (1a 1066)

Cheers
Sue
