Jap,
Just taken another look and agree with you on Pryce.
Also checked 1851 and there is a Price Weaver mason & innkeeper in the area.

Have you tried the tithe maps and schedules of the area - most were take around early 1840's
I managed to find my relatives farm and the details of all the land he owned around it.

Sorry to resurrect a 10 year old thread but wondered if Pigginnut had made any more progress with identifying the farms and where Thomas Weaver had acquired them.

I only ask as I'm a distant relative and had got stuck around this point.
