Chandler Price (ca. 1766-1827) was a prominent Philadelphia merchant with Republican leanings. He had once been in partnership with Benjamin Morgan, and after the latter moved to New Orleans the two maintained close personal and professional ties. Price was also connected to Joseph Yznardi and in 1798 publicly defended Yznardi from criticism by an American merchant. Price served for a time as an officer in a city militia company, participated with the local Welsh society, and served as a director or president on boards of the Germantown & Perkiomen Turnpike Company, the Bank of Pennsylvania, the Second Bank of the United States, and two insurance companies (Abraham Ritter, Philadelphia and Her Merchants [Philadelphia, 1860], 194; Philadelphia Gazette of the United States, 13 Sep. 1794, 3 Sep. 1798; Poulson’s American Daily Advertiser, 13 Oct. 1801, 4 Jan. 1828; New York Republican Watch-Tower, 27 Nov. 1802; New York American Citizen, 2 Feb. 1803; Philadelphia Weekly Aurora, 4 Nov. 1816; James Robinson, The Philadelphia Directory, for 1810 [Philadelphia, 1810], xlii; John Adems Paxton, The Philadelphia Directory and Register, for 1818 [Philadelphia, 1818]; Paxton, The Philadelphia Directory and Register, for 1819 [Philadelphia, 1819]; RS description begins J.
