Searching for information on Thomas S PRICE, born Feb 1859 .... The
Calhoun County census for 1860 shows him with the Thomas S MAZE family
but indicates he is from Roane. The 1870 census shows a Mary Ellen PRICE

may be his sister .... The only other info I have on this family is from
his marriage to Hannah MAZE on 08 Apr 1888, which indicated his father
was William PRICE, no mention of his mother .... Medical
