What a fantastic website!!

I found out that Price Tudor was indeed a death house keeper for 8 years at Singsing prison and he was definitely present at the execution of 2 infamous convicts who were named in the press.
 He worked at Wingate prison latterly as a timekeeper.

In 1920 he was the subject of quite a bit of press attention due to the actions of his wife - a much younger woman called Beatrice born about 1896 ( not yet sure of her maiden name as her mother had remarried) who fell in love with a younger man only to be rejected by him - she then took poison when with him and tried to commit suicide at her young lovers side!
It transpired (so she said) that she was being blackmailed by him so that Price Tudor would not find out about her lover. She survived and Price forgave her - but it seems that the marriage did not last as there is no mention of him being married amongst the senior family members - no idea at all!

Still no info yet on Albert Tudor - he had 2 surviving daughters Mary Agnes and Ruth - except that Price may have returned to live in Niagara city with his brother upon retirement from the prison service.

Hello Alison
My name is Richard Evans I am the great grandson of Martha Ann Tudor the sister of Albert and Price Tudor. My grandmother was Florence Bray and my Father was Derek Evans. My father when he was alive did lots of research into the Bray/Tudor families and i have picked up the mantel in carrying this on after he passed away. I have found the posts on Albert Edward and Price extremely interesting and would love to share what I have and get in touch if that is ok with you.
Regards
Richard

good evening everyone.
   my wife is the great granddaughter of their sister gertrude. I am currently trying to find out more on these brothers. I know albert worked for a power company and family rumours are that he actually did some work on the falls. I have recently found out that rice was a captain of the guards at sing sing. We actually live in LLay and maybe able to help regarding the area. I don't know when this original post is from but hopefully some of you are still members here and this message will get through to you all.
  thanks

I am the great-great-granddaughter of Albert. His daughter, my great-grandmother is Mary Agnes. My grandmother (her daughter) and mother are both still living so if there's something I don't know the answer to I can see if either of them know.

Your recollection of Albert and Price is correct as far as them working at the power plant and Sing Sing respectively. Ironically, Albert's daughter Mary Agnes married another Albert also, Albert John Cross.

I'd be happy to share any information I may have. I'm on Facebook also...profile pic is me laying in the grass with a blue shirt.

 hi again, and thanks for replying.
  I live in llay and my wife's family were born and bred here, so if i can help in anyway from this side ( photos etc ) feel free to ask. it seems they did indeed spend a lot of time travelling back and forth . I wonder what they did, where they stayed when back over here. albert was mentioned a few times within the family as the man who worked on niagara falls, and price as the brother who went with him but came home. no mention of him working in a notorious prison though. think i need to try and find out more about him. I  will have a look to see if i can find you on facebook,
