Most of the family moved to Hawesville Ky. and other places in Kentucky.I have sources that say he went back to Winchester and died there in 1785. There is a book The Tenmile Country and its Pioneer Families By Howard Leckey who lists the Family and a bit of history. Its an $80 book but I have a copy and will share what I have on John Rice anytime. partphil14@peoplepc.com theline is up for anyone who can help me also. Thanks
