Prince (Wood) Hastings

[Janine]

Hullo Chris, everyone!
I am looking up another branch of my tree now ...
in Hastings.
My uncle Jim (Alfred James I believe) was born in Hastings, I believe his father was Frederick Harold Prince (1872 - 1912)? who had Jim and two other sons - Frederick Harold, George Harvey.

I have both Freds and Ellen for 1901 census, can't find anyone else.
Frederick Harold Sr. married Ellen Hook d.o.b. Dec. 6 1872 - 1943, her father was Edward James Hook, mother's maiden name Ashdown.
I'd sure appreciate ANYTHING else you can find on these families in Hastings, Chris!  Ta ever so.

I think thats about all I can find in the 1901 census for the moment - most of the females Hooks and Princes would have changed their names upon marriage, so not easy to locate them.

That should give you a bit to work on!!

If you require any more help - you know how to contact me
