Editing John Price (section)

=== Later Years  ===

Price remained in Washington County the remainder of his life. Among other things, he worked as a stone mason, cutting tombstones. According to the 1880 census, he also worked as a "bee raiser." Southwest of St. George, a small settlement named Price was founded on the east bank of the Virgin River opposite Bloomington. Whether this was named after Price or one of his children or descendants is unclear.
