The data furnished herein were obtained from papers on file in the pension claim W.10227 based upon the Revolutionary War service of Thomas Price. He enlisted in Johnston County, North Carolina in May, 1780 and served four months as private in Captain Jonathan Smith's Company in Colonel Axson's or Axon's North Carolina Regiment. He enlisted in September, 1780, served as private in Captain John Rayford's Company in Colonel Axson's or Axon's North Carolina Regiment, was taken prisoner by the Tories in August, 1780, but was soon released and was discharged late in December, 1780. He was allowed pension on his application executed October 2, 1832 at which time he was living in Hawkins County, Tennessee. He died January 10, 1847 in Hawkins County, Tennessee. This soldier married February 5, 1815 in Johnston County, North Carolina, Pernina Parrish. As his widow, she was allowed pension on her application executed July 12, 1853 at which time she was about sixty-five years of age and was living in Davidson County, Tennessee. They had five children but the only name given was that of the youngest daughter, Mary Ann, who in 1855 was living in Davidson County, Tennessee, aged twenty-eight years, and was the wife of John Swick. The Revolutionary War records of this office fail to afford any information in regard to a Thomas Price who lived in Edgecombe or Wake County, North Carolina. Very truly yours, A.D.
