Susanna Martin Price (1853-1941) was the oldest of Will’s siblings, trained under Howard Stratton at the Pennsylvania Museum School. Her interest was in miniature paintings. She later taught art for 30 years at the Agnes Irwin School. She came to Rose Valley in the summer of 1901 to manage the Guest House for the artists who came with Howard Stratton in the first summer of the Rose Valley community. When the rest of the family arrived in October, she kept house for her mother and brother, Walter, in the old house on Peewee Hill above the Association houses.
