I am trying to find any information on the father of Sterling Price (born in VA ca 1774 and married to Mary Freeman). He may be Benjamin Price (of VA) who married in 1765 and might have died in Rutherford County, North Carolina. Any information about Benjamin (wife, parents, link to other Price line, etc.) would be helpful, or other information about Sterling Price.



Dear Val:
Glad to hear from you again! I believe you are the fellow that is
descended from Sterling's son Benjamin F. Price. I hope that Armond shared
with you the information that I sent him recently. He found an article that
indicates that George Washington Price died in Pine Bluff, AR in 1860.
Sterling Price Darling of Harvard University sent me a message some time
ago that the father of Sterling Price was Benjamin Price who married in
Virginia around 1765. According to ancestry.com, Sterling had brothers
named Benjamin and Joel. Benjamin Price is listed in an early Rutherford
County, NC land record, while Joel is listed in records in both Brunswick
County, VA and Rutherford County, NC. I believe it is possible that
Sterling Price was descended from the Price family of Henrico County, VA one
of whose members was General Sterling Price of Civil War fame.

According to Holly Price theree is a story in the family that there were three brothers from Wales who went to 3 different states, Arkansas, Alabama and Missouri. I haven't been able to substantiate that.

Letter from David Galloway says that his ancestor John Price may have been a cousin to Sterling Price listed as this man's son. Letter in Price file.
