I'm looking for living relatives of Ann Bray Prior (B: 1832) and Thomas Pyror (B: 1834).  They
lived on Lower Centenary Row in Camborne Cornwall.

The OP is looking for living relatives, but it's a long way and a lot of generations since 1832.

If it was me, I'd try connecting to people on Ancestry/Genes Reunited etc who have either Ann or Thomas in their trees.

Always looking for GOODWINS in Berkshire :)

Many apologies, i was just making sure that these were the right family & then it could be traced down from there.

Hello-I am a descendant of Thomas Pryor/Ann Bray.  They were my great x 2 grandparents.  Their son, Joseph Pryor, was my great grandfather.  Joseph had a sister Mary Ann and a brother Thomas.  According to the information that I can find, Ann Bray Pryor came from Cornwall to the USA some time after son Thomas was born in 1866.  She re-married in New Jersey, and lived there until she passed in 1906.  I have been unable to find anything about Ann's first husband, Thomas.  The 1861 England census shows Thomas, Ann, Joseph and Mary Ann living in Redruth on Lower Centenary Row.  I can find no other information regarding Thomas.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Thomas Harry Pryor and Ann were my 2nd great grandparents. Thomas Henry their son my 1st great grandfather was born 1863 and died 1910. He was married to Emily Trounce 1867-1933. They had my grandmother Estelle Rosabell Pryor (Sellers, Sauer). 1908-1985. I don't know if you already have this information.
