The first three entries were different and distant enough from each other to have been three unconnected people, given that Price was a common name. Then there was a Price that called 3 times in 1811, sir C Price, a Price called on 10 times in 1814, Ralph Price, mrs & miss Price (once), Price at Telford's (once), Price with Talfourd at theatre 3 times. and 2 Prices at Crump's (once). making perhaps eleven unconnected Prices in all. Sir C Price was Charles Price Hist of Parl 1748-1818, Lord Mayor of London 1802-3 MP for London 1802-12 created baronet 1804 (so nothing to do with Lady Price below). Ralph Price was probably his 2nd son (born 8.2.1780 died 3.4.1860 Boase) a merchant involved in philanthropic causes, of Chatham Square (next to the Equitable Assurance Office) in 1810, and of Sydenham by 1820 . David Price stationer and bookseller 15 Walbrook from 1791-1818 was the only likely person from British Book Trades Index
