Reported age at time of death was 44 years, so evidently born about 1813. Married probably about 1833 to Caroline McCALL. Bricklayer & father of at least nine children.
The 1850 census of Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia, shows (all born in Georgia, except Caroline): William PRIDE (37), a brick layer, with evident wife Caroline (36, born in South Carolina) and the following PRIDE children: Georgia (16), John (12), Emma (10), Elvira (8), William (4), and Anna (2) – John, Emma, & Elvira attending school. [Daughter Elnora died aged 14 years on 14 FEB 1850 and so was not counted in the census.]
“MUSCOGEE COUNTY. // Will be sold on the first Tuesday in March next, at the Market House in the city of Columbus. . .[among others:] City lot number 212, situated on Jackson street, between Broad and Franklin streets; levied on as the property of William PRIDE, to satisfy a fi fa in favor of the State and county vs. said PRIDE. // FRANCIS A. JEPSON, Sh’ff.” [Columbus (GA) Enquirer newspaper, Tuesday, 26 FEB 1850, p. 4.]
John H. Martin’s “The Making of a Modern City: Columbus, Georgia, 1827-65,” Volume II (1875), p. 100, shows on a list of deaths for 1857: William PRIDE, 14 APR 1857 (from a version of the Sexton's quarterly report - presumed to be date of burial).
Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (2000), p. 209, shows: William PRIDE died aged 44 years of consumption [= tuberculosis]; buried 14 APR 1857 (from “April 1 to July 1, 1857, Sexton’s Report of deaths in City,” dated 13 JUL 1857).
