Edmund and Jane [Web] Price came to New Brunswick in 1767 and traveled to St John possibly on his brothers boat. With them, they brought four or more children eventually ending up with over 15 children. Edmund had leased 200 acres of land from Capt. William Spry in Grimross, Sunbury County, Nova Scotia and is now Gagetown , Queens County, New Brunswick. Within two years, Edmund decided that he would purchase. The deed was dated July 12, 1769 [Saint John Registry Office, Book 131 — pgs. 15 and 161. So by June of 1783, Edmund Price and most of his family had departed from Gagetown and moved to land on the St. John River and they built a farm lot near Evandale, New Brunswick, on the west bank of the St. John River between Evandale and Oak Point with a couple of sons buying land close to their Fathers. This area on the river was called the Mistake because of the errors that boat captains made when sailing the St John River by going in the wrong channel. The address is 6127 RTE 102 Evandale, NB and it is about 3 minutes from the Evansdale ferry going towards St John. This lot is important to the Price family because it contains the family graveyard. The house has been in the family for many generations and many have made the trek to see the area. http://www.pricefamilyofnb.ca/in.htm#gmprice
