She married in 1866, after the close of the Civil War, at the age of 22. Her husband, Robert Price, like her father, was a blacksmith. She was married for seven and a half years before she died at the age of thirty. In that time she had three children; at the time of her death they were ages 6, 3, and less than a year.

Robert Price, a young widower with three small children, did not remarry until four and a half years after Ellen's death. Robert was 37, Anna Louise Rombo was 30, when they married.
