    The following notes are from Norma Roberts:

    Cherry Fletcher Bamberg has done extensive work on John Rice and his life. See her work for more info.

    The name John Rice ("John Riss") shows up in Warwick records for the first time on 13 Jan 1661, when he joined Edmund Calverly and Randall Holden in witnessing an indenture. John O. Austin, who published a biographical sketch of John Rice, says he came from old England with Mr. (Edmund) Calverly.

    No source has identified John's parents but he was very close to Edmund Calverly, and given the difference in their ages (Calverly was born in 1613), it can be assumed that John may have been an apprentice of Calverly's or some kind of relative back in England. Calverly made a deed of gift to John and Elizabeth Rice on 18 Nov 1676 "in consideration of the Love and affection which I have," but mentions no relationship. Calverly also made a second, also unexplained, deed of gift 23 Jan 1677/78 to John Rice alone.

    No proof of when his wife Elizabeth died or whether he remarried, or no birth records of his children's births can be found in Warwick records. He had two sons to whom he made deeds of gift, but it is possible he may have had one or more daughters (unknown at this time). Elizabeth may have died young and John never remarried and this could explain why only two children are found for John and Elizabeth.

    John married Elizabeth Holden 16 Jul 1674, Warwick, Kent Co., RI. Elizabeth (daughter of Randall HOLDEN and Frances DUNGAN) was born Aug 1652, Warwick, RI. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Elizabeth Holden was born Aug 1652, Warwick, RI (daughter of Randall HOLDEN and Frances DUNGAN).

    Notes:

    Possibly Elizabeth died shortly after their second child was born. No record has been found of other children being born to this couple.

    Children:
    1. 4. John Rice, II was born Abt 1675, Warwick, RI; died 9 Jan 1755, Warwick, RI.
    2. Randall Rice, Sr. was born Abt 1677, Warwick, RI; died Abt 1741, RI.

  3. 10.  John Whipple, Jr. was born 9 Mar 1639/40, Dorchester, MA.

    John — Mary Olney. Mary (daughter of Thomas OLNEY and Marie ASHTON) was born 1643, Providence, RI. [Group Sheet]


  4. 11.  Mary Olney was born 1643, Providence, RI (daughter of Thomas OLNEY and Marie ASHTON).
    Children:
    1. 5. Elnathan Whipple was born 2 Jan 1674/75, Providence, RI; died 7 Jan 1761; was buried 9 Jan 1761.

  5. 12.  John Low was born Abt 1650 (son of Anthony Low and Frances Unknown).

    John married Mary Rhodes 3 Mar 1674/75. Mary (daughter of Zachariah (Zachary) Rhodes and Joanna Arnold) was born Abt 1655. [Group Sheet]


  6. 13.  Mary Rhodes was born Abt 1655 (daughter of Zachariah (Zachary) Rhodes and Joanna Arnold).
    Children:

  7. 14.  Israel Arnold, I was born 13 Oct 1649, Pawtuxet, Warwick, RI (son of Stephen Arnold, Sr. and Sarah Smith); died 15 Sep 1717.

    Notes:

    Israel's will names his father, Stephen; his wife, Mary; and his children: Israel, William, Elisha, Stephen, James, Joseph (eldest), Josiah, Mary (Low), Sarah (Carpenter), & Barbary (Carpenter). I have estimated the dates of birth for most of them -- needs more research.

    It was either this "Israel Arnold of Pawtuxet" or his son who in 1707 purchased land in Cowesett from the heirs of Robert Potter. This piece of land was originally designated as farm #3, on the northwest corner of the intersection of Routes 2 & 3. Part of this was later sold to the Remingtons.

    Israel married Mary Barker Abt 1672. Mary (daughter of James Barker and Barbara Dungan) was born Abt 1650; died Abt 1723. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:
