The evidence for Thomas Prickett being Charles' father is the will
of Richard Prickett Ironfounder (below). We have a Thomas
who had a son Charles, who is about the right age to be our Charles.
It is all we have, but would have to rate him 30% at best, given the
proliferation of Pricketts, and the poor records in London at the time
