Curiously enough, the forename Price-Maria was used in Bucks, not
massivley, buyt at least three times, in related families. I can't help
wondering if it was a botched attempt at Priscilla Maria, but as they
repeated it, once established, perpetuated. So maybe the Price Maria
entry was really a Holt or Jones etc
