Samuel Prentiss married Sarah M. Maness on 15 Jun 1854 in De Soto, Jefferson County, Missouri. Sarah was born in about 1832 in Hawkins County, Tennessee. She died in about 1877, but I have not been able to find a definite date or place of burial.

Samuel's parents were Capt. William and Abigail (nee Lewis) Prentiss. One of his brothers was the famous orator of the South, Seargent Smith Prentiss. Another brother was George Lewis Prentiss, author and preacher, who was married to religious children's book author, Elizabeth Payson Prentiss. She was the author of the "Little Susie" books.
