PRICE. The Welsh name is said to be from Ap-Rice or -RceSy son of Rice or Rees ; but both names may be from Cornish prds^ a meadow. Pryce, Pryse, Brice, and the n. S. Praise would seem to be the same name^ See also Rkss.
PRIDEAUX (found PRYDIAUX). This ancient family are said to trace their descent from Paganus, lord of Prideaux Castle in LuxUion ; from French pires cTeaux^ near the waters, ** the sea formerly f...lowing up as high as this place." I hare elsewhere derived this name from pratellum, dim. of pratum, a meadow ; but Tonkin thinks it may also be from pri, prid^ clay, and aua^ the same with aU^ the cliff or sea-shore. Cf. my notice of the name in Notes and Queries (2nd S., No. 52, p. 612). See also D. Gilbert (iii. 66) ; Shirley's Noble and Gentle Men ; and Lower's Patronymica Britannicn.
