!SOURCE: Email from N. Combs to the Whipple Website, 10 Aug 2001. Norma writes:"Let me offer some primary sources (Bible records and Arnold's VR) on the inconsistency of who Barbara Rice, d/o Elnathan (Whipple) and John Rice married. This Barbara Rice was born April 24, 1706 in Warwick (Arnold's VR) and married John Langford on May 11, 1727 in East Greenwich, RI (Arnold's VR). Births of six of their children are recorded in East Greenwich, RI (Arnold's VR).
The Barbara Rice who married Benjamin Arnold was born March 18, 1723/24 (Arnold Bible records copied 1936 by Josephine Keefer Short and available at the RI Historical Society). She was the daughter of John Rice, Jr. (1696-1746/7), the s/o John and Elnathan (Whipple) Rice, and Avis Tibbetts (d. 1760), making her the niece of the first Barbara Rice and still a Whipple descendant.
