Notes
a. Note:   Listed in Ancestral File. Listed in Women of the Western Reserve.
  Ohio Star newspaper--died on 3 Sep 1849 at 75 years old
  From "Pioneer Women of Ravenna," Mrs. William Price, Barbara Boosinger, was a shrewd German woman. Her name was originally Van Buessinger, and so it is given on her quaint baptismal record. This record is dated at Wirtemburg, Germany and is a valued relic in the family.
  At one time a neighbor, wishing to purchase a yoke of steers in Mr. Price's possession, went to interview him on the subject. Mrs. Price, knowing her husband's slight acquaintance with the language, came out to assist him if need be. The younger steer was especially large and fine, larger, indeed than the older one.
  Mr. Price, in explaining the situation to the prospective purchaser, said: "It vas dis vay, der biggest vas der schmallest." Whereupon Mrs. Price corrected him with fine contempt, saying, "He not speck Englesh ver well. He mean der oldest vas der yoongest."
