Jess, I know!!!!!!!!!! Can't get a Pryna on ANY census! Grew up in Wales so I'm trying to go with pronunciation rather than spelling. Pryna rhymes with runner if that gives anybody any ideas. Janice

So with a welsh accent could well be down as Hannah - the more i try and say it with a welsh accent the more faces i am apparently pulling!! Jess

Maybe she didn't like Pryna and went with the Jane LOL. Sounds like her family were very Welsh though so I'm surprised she got the Jane rather than its Welsh equivalent, Sian. Janice

There's a Perina Young age 70 in Wales, born Gloucestershire, in the 1901. Might be her mother on a second marriage perhaps. Janice
