bullet  General Notes:

John's connection to our Ann is based on census data. The connections are age, location (MD), and Juliane or Julia A. (although the ages noted on census forms are different). Needed is a specific link to John Thomas Price.

After 6 hours of reserch, the Baltimore County Historical Society library director has concluded that the following Price families (John and Samuel) provide no link to John Thomas Price or his mother Ann.

1850 Census for the 1st District in Baltimore County, MD, on 26 Sept.: Household included John Price, 61, no occupation listed; Ann, 61; Juliane (fem.), 28; Minerva, 18; Lucy, 3; and Harrison Fields, 11, male, Black. All born in MD. John Thomas Price, with Julia, appears in Harford County. 1906 1st District = Ellicott City to Balt. City line.
1860 Census for the 7th Ward, Baltimore City, Baltimore County, MD, on 6 August: Household included John Price, 73, cooper; Ann, 72; Mary, 44; David, 33, carpenter; Manerva A., 29. All born in MD.

bullet  Research Notes:

The name Price is of Welsh origin and derived from 'ap' meaning 'son of' and Rhys, which stems from the Welsh personal name 'Rhys' denoting 'hero or strong man.' ApRhys later became Price when the 'a' was dropped. Also in the Welsh language 'ab' means 'son of' and thus the surname Brice and Bryce have the same derivation as Price. A Thomas Price (b. 1610) arrived at St. Mary's City, MD, on 3-25-1634 aboard the Ark or the Dove. He could have been the originator of the Price line in America.
