The father was a native of South Carolina, the mother of Kentucky.

    When the latter was about six years old, his parents, on October 14, 1837. came to Wayne County and settled in Massillon Township, where they resided until their death, that of the mother occurring in 1851, that of the father in 1857. Subject's education was received in the subscription schools of his county, and up until twenty years of age rendered what assistance he could on the home farm. At that age, he started out for himself, and settled on a farm in Mt. Erie Township, about two and a half miles southeast of the village. On that farm lie remained about seven years, and then, in January, 1857, came to Mt. Erie Village. Here he began merchandising with Andrew F. Nisbit; that partnership remained intact until May, 1877, when it was dissolved by mutual consent.
    In January, 1878, Mr. Price again embarked in business, this time with W. C. Ake, which firm still exists. They now carry a stock of about $7,000. In connection with Mr. Nisbit, he owns about 500 acres of land in this township and Mt. Erie Township. On October 10,
    1849, our subject was married to Miss Jane Nisbit. a daughter of Alexander and Dorcas (Ramsey) Nisbit. old pioneers of this county. This lady was born November 22, 1822. One child has blessed this union — Mary Jane, wife at W. C. Ake. Mr. Price was a soldier in the
