David, thank you for your response.
James Beauregard Price is listed on the 1880 Cocke County, TN census in Daniel Price's household, BUT he is the nephew of Daniel Price NOT the son.
The story goes that James and his brother Rastus who are listed on this census were illegitimate sons of JANE Price.Jane had these two boys by the son of the Cherokee chief in the 1870's. The family felt that Jane brought shame of the family and rarely discussed it. There are Cherokee's listed on the Dawson's Role by the name of Price, but I have not been able to prove a connection.
I have been in touch with Rastus' family and they have the exact same family history.So the search continues for now.
