The Albert and Mariah Bryner House was built between 1890 and 1892. Albert had moved to Price, Utah from St. George, Utah in 1883 with his parents and family during the early development of Price. Shortly after completion of the house Albert Bryner was called on a mission to Germany for the LDS Church and during his absence his wife did sewing for others to support the family. Albert Bryner was the third bishop of the Price Ward, serving from 1909 to 1921 and pay a key role in the building of the Tabernacle finished for the Carbon Stake.

The late Victorian house has served many different purposes over the years. It served as inn for people traveling from Emery county while waiting for the next train. It also served as a mortuary for many years, first as the Thomas-Deseret Mortuary and then as the Wallace Mortuary. The building then served as a upholstery shop, a yard goods business, and a sewing machine outlet. The it was vacant for more than 20 years. The building is being slowly restored and converted to the Bryner Pioneer Museum.
