Timothy Jenkins Price
Mary Roberts Price
Though not often mentioned, it was through his association with his wife’s family that T.J. Price probably owed much of the credit for his early success. Mary Roberts was one of four sisters of Welsh origin and high social standing. Her sister Kate was married to Ben Smith who actually bought all the land that encompassed the quarries and the present day Upper Arlington. He was a financier and partner with T. J. Price in many of his early ventures. The grand Victorian Smith home is the current Columbus Club on the corner of Broad and Fourth.
