Surname: PRICE, WENTZ, STROBLE, SAND, GUCKER, STREIB
-------------------------
Looking for one John A. Price last seen in Wells County, IN some time after
1860. Prior to that he was listed on the 1860 census living in Blackford
County, Licking Township, being a farmer and born in Virginia. (rumored
that the family was from England/Ireland, however) He listed his age at
that time as 54 though that might be 34. He was married to Anna Dorothy
Wentz who was 30 years old and from Germany. They had 3 children together,
William Henry, John Earnest and Mary Elizabeth.
Sometime between 1860 and 1870 John A. Price and his wife, Dorothy, divorced
(possibly due to drinking) and John disappeared. there is some mention
of him last being seen in Wells County or in the Richmond-Kokomo area.
Any help would be appreciated.
