Sir John Pryce, 1st Baronet (born ca. 1596, d. ca. 1657), sometimes also spelt Price, was an Anglo-Welsh Baronet and Member of Parliament.
The son and heir of Edward Pryce of Newton, Montgomeryshire, in November 1614 Pryce was admitted a student of the Inner Temple. Initially a Royalist, in 1628 he was created a Baronet.[1]
In October 1643, at the outset of the Long Parliament, he was elected to the House of Commons from Montgomeryshire. On 12 October 1642, together with his fellow-member Richard Herbert he was disabled from sitting in parliament, on account of their having joined the king at Oxford in the initial stages of the English Civil War. In 1644, though, he changed sides and was appointed Parliament's Governor of Montgomery. In the First Protectorate Parliament of 1654-1655, he returned to the Commons, again as a member for Montgomeryshire. He died about 1657.[1]
Pryce married Catherine, daughter of Sir Richard Pryse of Gogerddan,[1] and was the ancestor of a long line of Pryce Baronets.
