• - "The report by Mr. Forrest in 1930 gave the identity of the father and mother of John Price as Richard Price and Ursula Middleton. Richard Price of Manavon was a brother of Thomas Price, Vicar of St.Chads." [Price1988]
• !- "John Price was described as son and heir of Richard Pryce in an indenture in 1610-11 from Richard Pryce of Manovan, Montgomery County, Gentleman, and Ursula Pryce, his wife to ___ Robinson. Thomas Pryce, brother of Richard Price II was one of the witnesses. (Indenture, British Museum, A.D.D. Charter 1036. PC) The signature on this indenture corresponds in every detail with the signature of John Price on the Petition to the King sent from Virginia in 1625-26 when John Price signed as a member of the Burgess.(Public Record Office, London, England, c.o. 1/3, 17276, PC)."

  • Text: "Richard Price II, Gentlemen of Manavon, Tanner, who had by his wife Ursula Middleton, two sons, John Price of whom presently, and William Price." Some of the evidence is cited in the next paragraph: "John Pryce, was described as son and heir of Richard Pryce in an indenture in 1610-11 from Richard Pryce of Manavon, Montgomery County, Gentlemen, and Ursula Pryce, his wife to ___ Robinson. Thomas Pryce, brother of Richard Price II, was one of the witnesses."
