When  you say you can't find him any anywhere - when do you mean -  pre-marriage or post 1901? 

Please post full 1901 details

I can see him on his marriage, on the censuses from 1891-1921, and his burial on 16th July 1923. Also the burial of Elizabeth on 19th January 1924.

However, I can't see anything before his marriage.

If you are looking for Moses should your header read Moses Price rather than John Price?

John may have made up a father - a Moses Price seems to be hard to pin down in Caernarfonshire

The first Moses Price marriage in Wales was 1857 Bridgend & the next wasn't until 1861 in Bedwelty

Very few Moses Price Welsh census entries have a birthdate in line with an 1856 birth

There were in fact several stone and granite quarries around Pwllheli.
