Why this blog?

Numerous hours each day are spent at my computer researching and writing about the Leslie F. Rice family, reaching back to 1630, through the years, and into this century. However, and unfortunately, I spend more time on the research side of things, and less on the writing. The result is the discovery of capsules of info which are informative, and often quite fascinating, but which remain with me and are not passed on to The Rice Kids. Some of whom might find these interesting, maybe even exciting.


The intention of this website is thus to release these bits of info as I discover them so as to allow others to participate in my encounters.


Another intention with this website is to allow for, and even create, a communicative process in which interested individuals can interact with me. Criticizing, idea thinking, questioning, and contributing in such a way that this website can be a source of information for enlightenment all of The Rice Kids….. whether they need it or not. :-)

Who are the Rice Kids?


The “Rice Kids” are an exclusive assemblage of individuals who consider themselves related to Leslie Francis Rice and Grace Lora (Rich) Rice, albeit legal or emotive bonding, or through just plain interest. The following is a list is of the five children of Leslie and Grace. The other proud members of the Rice family are their grandchildren, and, of course, this group of unique individuals expands to both twofold and threefold when including the third and future generations, as well as spouses, which would be the only right and proper thing to eventually do.

One can very likely find errors on this list. Maybe names are misspelled, locations wrong, or dates incomplete. However, I will in all solidarity make whatever corrections you as readers make me aware of. Undoubtedly some of you might already be thinking: Dosn’t he ever get this right?”
