I've written to Winfred .. separately.. but I thought I would post the answer to her question here ..... I have summarized my RICE information this week, and have come to find out that an Ashabel and Percissa "Persis" RICE migrated from Marlborough, MA, to Nova Scotia .. right around 1782. (She the former Percissa KNIGHT) ... They had their first child in Marlborough and the rest were born, probably in Digby, NS. Their children were: Mary Rice, b~1780 Rufus Rice, b~1783 Ruth Rice, b~1784 Lucy Rice, b~1788 Ebenezer Rice, b~1793 Jesse Rice, b~1796 Ashabel Rice, b~1803 Daniel Rice??, b~1804 daughter Rice??, b~1806 I am trying to determine if Daniel Rice, b1804, probably in Digby, NS, is the son of Ashabel Rice ...... or if Daniel Rice, b1804, is the son .. of Ashabel's oldest son, Rufus Rice. Daniel V. Rice is my ancestor. My guess is that there were two .. Daniel Rice's .. born around the same time in Digby,... and thus the confusion.
