Hi Deidre, you are correct our surname is not common. I know not a lot of John Prince prior to hime arriving in Australia in 1876 with his family. Here is what I know of the John Prince that I am looking for. His father's name was Samuel Prince. John was born in Kilkenny approx 1843. On 6 Septemebr 1865 he married Sarah Johnstone in Dublin. ( she was 22 at the time and was born in County Wicklow). They had 4 children ( Samuel, Elizabeth, Henry, Catherine)before they came to Australia in 1876 and after Sarah dying in 1884 her sister Harriett ( also born in Country Wicklow approx 1858) came to Australia in 1886 and she became his 2nd wife and my great grand mother. I hope this helps in any way. Cheers Geoff
