Birth Notes: the Vital Records for the City of Worcester list 17 December as John's birth date which is the most likely date.

General Notes: The Vital Records for the City of Worcester list 17 December as John's birth date which is the most likely date for John Rice's birth. John resided circa 1760 at Annapolis, Annapolis Co, Nova Scotia. He left a will on 4 April 1811 at Annapolis Royal, Annapolis Co, NS; which was recorded 24 May 1811 naming wife Mary and children Mary Rice (the wife of Israel Potter), William, James, Silas, and Thomas. The Rice Gen'l Register, 1970, says "John went to Nova Scotia on ship 'Charming Molly' with Beriah Rice and Ebenezer Rice Jr. He settled on the west side of Lequille River." In his 1897 History of the County of Annapolis, W A Calnek provides the passenger manifest for the first trip of the Charming Molly. A Beriah Rice, together with Beriah's sons Stephen and Benjamin, are on that manifest; John Rice's name is not. This does not mean that John did not arrive in 1760, only that he was not on the first, recorded trip of the Charming Molly. In his addendum to Calnek's history, Judge Savary provides a list of petitioners for a Grant of Confirmation of the Township of Annapolis, dated October 30th, 1765. John Rice's name was not on that list. Back to Calnek's history, John Rice's name appears on the census of 1768 for Annapolis. He has three males and three females in his household, all American. He was enumerated in the 1770 census with six people in his household, two American and four Acadian. We may assume that the four Acadians were his children born in Nova Scotia. According to Marion B McCormick, 1975: 'He was the ancestor of the greater part of the Annapolis Valley Rice family. He was a friend of Col. Hoar and settled on part of his farm, and during the Colonel's absences from home, he looked after the affairs of his friend. After the Colonel's death, John bought part of the estate, and later passed it on to his son James, who had been born on the farm, and who dies there in 1886.'

He was listed in the township records as surveyor of land.

John married Sarah Smith, daughter of Zephaniah Smith and Smith, on 7 May 1761 in Sudbury, Middlesex Co., MA.¹⁵ Sarah was born on 22 Apr 1743 in Sudbury, Middlesex Co., MA^¹⁶ and died on 29 Apr 1784^¹⁷ aged 41.

+ 107 M i. Silas Rice was born about 1762 in Annapolis Royal, NS, Canada^{¹⁸^,19} and died on 17 Feb 1855 in Hillsburgh, Digby Co, Nova Scotia, Canada^²⁰ aged about 93.

111 M v. Joseph Rice was born in 1771 in Annapolis Royal, NS, Canada^¹⁷ and died in 1784^¹⁷ aged 13.

+ 112 M vi. William Rice was born in 1774 in Annapolis Royal, NS, Canada^{²²^,26} and died on 27 Nov 1833 in Bear River, Digby County, Nova Scotia, Canada^²⁷ aged 59.

+ 113 M vii. Thomas Rice was born on 23 May 1779 in Annapolis Co., NS^{²⁸^,29} and died on 10 Dec 1861^³⁰ aged 82.

Birth Notes: although the LDS International Genealogical Index lists Mary's birth place as Clements, Nova Scotia, this seems unlikely as Clements was not established until later.

General Notes: August 8, 1800 is the date upon which the inventory of his estate was filled.

He was a soldier in Col. Elisha Jones' Regiment in 1758.

The graves of Samuel and his wife were probably in the old cemetary at Paradise, NS and were removed and not marked when the railroad line was constructed across one corner of the cemetery.

Shortly after his marriage he settled in Nova Scotia, probably with his brother Silas, as both were recorded in the census of 1790. They were later joined by another brother, Isaac, and possibly by their sister, Tabitha.

He sold his holdings of land in Annapolis County about 1783, at the arrival of the Loyalists, and settled in Wilmot, NS.

General Notes: She is designated, the "mysterious Tabitha" as proof of her first marriage has not yet been found, although it persists in family tradition.

Tabitha married Ebenezer Rice III, son of Ebenezer Rice Jr. and Anna Rice, before 1770 ³⁵.^,36.^,37 Ebenezer was born on 6 Nov 1743 in Westborough, Worcester Co, MA^{³⁷^,38} and died in 1795^³⁹ aged 52.

Marriage Notes: George King has searched in vain for the marriage of Ebenezer Rice and Tabitha Balcom in Sudbury, MA and surrounding communities and at Annapolis, NS. The Rice Genealogical Register and McCormick 1975 list their marriage year as 1778. George considers this date very unlikely.

The 1770 census for Annapolis lists Ebenezer Rice (III) with three in his household, two American and one Acadian. We can assume that he and Tabatha Balcom had been married for at least one year and had one child.

Note that Ebenezer Rice (III) was not listed in the 1768 census but was a signer of the 30 October 1765 petition for the Grant of Confirmation of the Township of Annapolis (see Savary, p 105). It is possible that he returned to Massachusetts for a time between 1765 and 1770 and might even have married Tabitha in Massachusetts, so Nova Scotia is not listed as their place of marriage.

Tabitha next married Thaddeus Maynard, son of Ephriam Maynard ² and Mary Balcom,² after 1795.
