Oh, and we think the Christiana in 1841 census is in fact the Justina in the next census despite the age different. By the 1861 census, the first Justina/Jestina has died, to be replaced by the 2nd Justina

Yep, that's them in 1861. Sorry, was busy digging that one out. By 1771 obviously some of them had married and moved Can't find them anywhere in 1881 though.

Glitter Yes. Many apologies! Oh, and we think Eliza may have married a Saturday/Saturley/Satterday

MariaW Report 25 May 2007 21:56

Oh, and I would point out that at some stage one of them (Henry) moved to Wales and they became Wrights (and once RIGHT on a census) so it's possible that their names are misspelled somewhere

Well it's a bit long-winded so here goes. 1841 Census of Somerset HO107/941/8/11 West Hatch, North Curry, Somerset William Rice 35 Labourer Y Sarah Rice 25 Y Ann Rice 4 Y Christiana Rice 3 Y Elizabeth Rice 1 _______________________________________________ 1851 Census of Somerset HO107; Piece: 1922; Folio: 431; Page: 11 Stoke Village, Stoke St. Mary, Somerset William Rice Head 46? Honiton, Devon Ag.lab Sarah Rice Wife 36 Bickenhall, Somerset Glover Ann Rice Dau 13 Bickenhall, Somerset Glover Jestine Rice Dau 12 Bickenhall, Somerset Scholar Elizabeth Rice Dau 9 West Hatch, Somerset Scholar Levi Rice Son 8 West Hatch, Somerset Scholar Eliza Rice Dau 6 West Hatch, Somerset Scholar Harriet Rice Dau 5 Stoke St. Mary, Somerset Henry Rice Son 2 Stoke St. Mary, Somerset Thirza Rice Dau 8 months Stoke St. Mary, Somerset _________________________________________________ Now, I think I've found marriages for Levi Rice, Henry Rice and Frederick Rice. Frederick Rice wasn't born until 1953 so is not listed above. There was also another Justina (1856). Have found a death for the first Justina (spelt Jestine in 1851 census) and believe the later Justina was named after their first one. We also found what we suspect was Harriet's death. As for the rest of them, we're totally stuck. William may have married a few times but I might be getting him mixed up with one of his sons. So what happened to the rest of them? Any help kindly appreciated as I'm tearing my hair out with frustration!

I'm getting nowhere with the Rice family in Devon and the person who's helping me is stumped as well. Won't bother posting lengthy details though unless anyone is interested
