John Frederick Price was born 10/28/1886 in Perryville, AR.Parents were Aaron Price and Harriet Smith Price.He married Julia Ann Dunn on Oct 17, 1906 in Perryville and died in Fresno, CA june 15, 1948.John was shot and killed in an attempted holdup.After he was shot, the would-be-robber got scared and left without robbing his service station.Julia Ann Dunn was born Sept 1886 and had a twin sister Roxie viola Dunn.She had older sister Lula Etta dunn b.10/23/1878 (who married Nicholas Franklin Saylor) and brother Charles W. Dunn (called Tommy) b. 1879.Julia Ann Dunn died Jan 1919 either in childbirth or shortly after.John and julia's children were Rudy Sylvester Price b. 10/27/1908, Roy Lorenzo Priceb. 7/10/1909, Mildred Neoma Price b 8/24/1917, and Madeline Price 1/07/1919.Julia Ann Dunn's father was William Wylie Dunn b. 1854 in Marshall County, Alabama and died 10/23/1888.Her mother was Mary Elizabeth Cooper b. 1859, died 12/8/1893.After Mary Elizabeth died, Lula Etta married Nicholas Franklin Saylors 6/3/1894 and took her sisters to raise. (I have a good story about this marriage)I think Charles W. was farmed out as a farm labor.William Wylie Dunn's father was William Lewis Dunn b. 1829/30 in Alabama and died 10/6/1895 in Faulkner County, Arkansas. I don't know for sure who his mother was, but I'm working on it.William Lewis Dunn, Mary Elizabeth Cooper Dunn and William Wylie Dunn are buried in Carter Cemetary in Faulker County, AR.We put up a marker for William Lewis Dunn(He's my gggrandfather)We have a 95 year old cousin who remembered where his grandfather was buried (and I found the info in the Pence Funeral Home Records). William Wylie Dunn's half brother Elisa Alex Dunn is my ggrandfather.I have lots and lots of info from William Lewis Dunn down to recent.Let me know what else you need, I have it all.
Oh yea, William Wylie Dunn was married before Mary Elizabeth to ?They had 2 children, William Henry Dunn b. 1872, died 7/15/1892 in prison, and Mary Frances Dunn b 1874.I hope I haven't confused you with all this.
Thanks, Jo Dunn Sheppard
