Wednesday, February 3, 1819   Col. Walter W Price

Col. Walter W Price was born in England. He emigrated to America in 1840 and settled in Manhattan where he became a coal dealer. In 1860 he joined Ebenezer Beadleston in managing the Empire Brewery of New York. Despite participating in the Civil War, Price remained a partner in the brewery until his death on the 5th of June 1876. The brewery, under the new name Beadleston & Woerz, continued for another 43 years. It was finally shut down by National Prohibition in 1920.
