Family Notes:
Gibson Price was the father of Robert “Bob Price (1834-1875). Bob Price served in Co. F 108th USCI. Bob Price’s death record stated that “Gyp” (nickname for Gibson) Price was his father. According to St. Joseph Church baptismal records (Bardstown, Kentucky), a man named Gibson Price was the father of at least four other children, however, further research is needed to determine if the Gibson Price named in the baptismal records was the same Gibson Price who served in Co. A 123rd USCI.

Enslaver Information
Name: John Price Location: Nelson County, Kentucky
Previous Enslaver:
Enslaver Notes:
John Price’s name was not found in the 1850 Slave Schedule. It is possible that his enslaved persons were, at the time, included with those of his mother’s (Elizabeth O’Neal Price 1783-1865). She enslaved six persons in 1850, one of whom could be a match for Gibson Price. In 1860, John Price was double counted: he appeared in his mother’s household in Nelson County, Kentucky; and as the head of his own household in Ralls County, Missouri. John Price married Mary E. Spalding (1821-1877) in Bardstown in 1847. He moved his family to Missouri in the early 1850s. According to the 1860 Slave Schedule, John Price enslaved three persons in Nelson County, but none of the three matched the description of Gibson Price. John Price’s name does not appear in the 1860 Slave Schedules for Ralls County, Missouri. John Price died on January 29, 1891, in Ralls County, Missouri.
