     Deacon Edward Rice was born in 1618 at Barkhamstead, England; baptised 10/20/1622. He was christened on Oct 26, 1622 at Stanstead, Suffolk County, England, 26th per TAG, 20th per Rice Gen'l Register, under the name of Rise. Name given as Edmund, not Edward. Nonetheless, the ERA is convinced that Edward was the child baptised (and of course born) that year, and that he exaggerrated his age in later life. He married Agnes Bent, daughter of John Bent and Martha (?), circa 1647. Deacon Edward Rice died on Aug 15, 1712 at Marlborough, Massachusetts, at age 89 at about age 93. A 1712 obituary in the Boston News Letter gave the death year as 1711 and said he had been born in Berkhamstead in 1618. It also said he had 142 descendants at that time, of which 119 were living. It further said that Edward's brother Henry, who had died in Framingham in 1711, had a similarly large number of dsecendants.
     He was in 1655 at Two Mile Grant. He resided in 1664 at Marlborough, Massachusetts; where he was a Deacon of the church. He declared age 47 in a paper filed in court on Oct 2, 1666 at Middlesex, Cambridge County, Massachusetts. He and Deacon Edmund (2) Rice were Edward and Agnes Rice gave to their son, Edmund Rice of Sudbury, half of the farm lying within the bounds of Sudbury, "near the spring". (Edward has purchased som of this land from his father Edmund and some of the land from his brother Benjamin. John Rice of Sudbury, a brother of Edmund, had the choice half.) Deed recorded August 16, 1734 on Apr 1, 1686 at Sudbury, Massachusetts. Deacon Edward Rice elected Deacon in 1687 at Sudbury, Massachusetts. Assessed 8s'7d 1688 Marlborough, Massachusetts.
