JAMES F. PRICE was born near Wilmington, Del., April 14, 1838, and is
the second in a family of eight children born to David M. and Jane
(Tweed) Price.  David M. is also a native of Delaware; in early life he
served an apprenticeship of five years at blacksmithing, which,
together, with carriage and wagon-making, he followed for forty years
near Wilmington, where he yet resides on his farm, retired from active
business life.  Mrs. Jane Price was also a native of Delaware, of Scotch
descent, and departed this life in September, 1862, a devoted member of
the Presbyterian Church.  James F., at the age of fifteen, after
receiving a good common school education, commenced to learn the wagon
and carriage-maker's trade, which he continued until he attained his
majority.  He then went to west Pennsylvania, where for eighteen months
he engaged in the oil business on Oil Creek, meeting with remarkable
success; he then moved to West Virginia, and engaged in the oil trade on
the Little Kanawha, where he suffered severe financial reverses; in 1865
he engaged in the oil business in Breckinridge and Barren Counties, Ky.,
sinking one well in the latter county.  These proving to be bad
speculations he came to Glasgow in the fall of the same year, where he
engaged in the manufacture of wagons and wagon materials, and also in
the saw-mill and lumber business. After about five years he discontinued
the wagon business, and engaged in railroad contracting in connection
with the saw-mill and lumber busines; in 1873 he engaged in distilling,
and in the wholesale and retail liquor trade, when he continued two
years; he then opened a livery, feed and sale stable at Glasgow; he
keeps from twenty to twenty-five horses in his stable constantly, and
his stock is of the best; he also has a stock farm near town and is
quite extensively engaged in breeding fine horses; he owns three fine
blooded stallions, one of which, "Montrose," is one of the finest saddle
stallions in the State.  For five years Mr. Price was marshal of
Glasgow, and is now a member of the town council; he has also been for
several years a director and members of the Barren County Agricultural
Society, of which he is now president.  In March, 1877, Mr. Price
returned to Delaware, and married Emily McDanel, a daughter of Springer
McDanel, one of the old and prominent citizens of Stanton, Del., where
Mrs. Price was born in November, 1845. Though not a member, Mr. Price
ahderes to the doctrines of the Presbyterian Church.  Politically he is
a Democrat.
