William Stephen Reuben PRICE
son of Benjamin F. Price & Mary Ann Adams
(circa 1940)

W.S.R. Price (a/k/a Will Price, "Catfish" Price) lived in Fayette County for many years.
At one time, he manufactured Price's Table Syrup.  He also owned a restaurant and would stand outside
loudly announcing, "CATFISH, HOT CATFISH!" (an early form of advertising).  This supposedly is how he got his nickname.
In later years, he walked the streets selling peanuts and sno-cones.

Buried
Providence Methodist Church Cemetery, Perry Co., AL
