    1. [OHHIGHLA-L] RICEs ca 1840
    2. Greetings! My great-great-grandparents were Thomas Jefferson CHAFFIN and Sarah RICE of Paint Township, Ross Co (but I believe the RICEs may have been from Highland, which I will explain below). They married in about 1840. Sarah was born in Ireland, 28 November, 1822. I'm looking for information about her family. The reason I think Sarah may have been from Highland Co. is that Thomas and Sarah later removed to Story Co., Iowa along with John M. and Biddy (RICE) Griffith, who had married in Highland Co. 14 April 1841. I suspect that Biddy and Sarah may have been sisters. There must also have been a brother, as John and Biddy had a niece and nephew, Peter and Susan RICE, living with them near Thomas and Sarah in Iowa. Any info about these people would be much appreciated! Thanks!!
