There are conflicting sources on where Jonathan was born. Some sources say Wales and others say New Jersey. His parents are relatively unknown and his father may have been named Price.
Jonathan Nicholas was a Sergeant in the American Revolutionary War. After the war he settled in Morris County, New Jersey.
Contemporary records give Jonathan Nicholas the suffix Sr because he had a son of the same name. Jonathan did not go by Sr nor did his son go by Jr but for contemporary records it makes it easier to differentiate who is who. Because Jonathan and Jonathan Jr. were buried in the same cemetery their graves were easily confused making some believe his son Jonathan Jr. was the Jonathan that served in the war despite him being born after the war.
