I am looking for Rice family members. My ggg-grandmother was Callia T. Rice b. 1810 in Livingston KY to James Harvey Rice and wife Ann. She is believed to be probably named for the Rev. David Rice's daughter Challia Rice Trotter who married John Trotter. She married Rawleigh Wilson. Someone from White Co. sent me an old typed family line which was researched by Cleta Belle Turner from the family of Thomas Rice b. 1568 Sudbury, Suffolk, Eng. I can't make heads or tails of this paper as to who belongs to whom. Associated names in this Rice family are: Emma Dembo; Elsie Rawlinson; Margarey Weigant; John Veach; Mariah WArd; Nathaniel Owens; Charles Barth; William Henry McEntire; Sarah Bidwell;Andrew Brown; FAnny Blackford;Clara Guinn; Jannie Leasure;Ann Patrick; Walter Atwell. Please contact me if you know of any of these people who married into the Rice family. Also looking for descendants of William Berry Wilson son of Callia and Rawleigh.
