Ashbel RICE [QQ3397, w971] (Jesse⁴, Joseph³, Joseph², Edmund¹) , born 28 Apr 1755 at Marlborough, MA^{3 {p152},1 {p82},2 {p129},45 {p15}}, son of Capt. Jesse RICE and Beulah. He died 23 Feb 1838 at Lubec, ME^{2 {p129}}. He was in the military where he fought at the Lexington Alarm, Lake Champlain, Bemis Heights, Saratoga. He was a pensioner^{2 {p129}}. He resided at Marlboro; Templeton; Digby, Nova Scotia; and Belfast, Waldo & Lubec, Maine^{2 {p129}}. There was indeed an Ashbel Rice who was granted 250 acres in the Hatfield Grant in what is now Digby, Nova Scotia. The Hatfield Grant was issued on January 29, 1801 in order to settle land claims in what was then known as Annapolis County. The land in question had previously been granted under the "Botsford Grant" in 1784 but none of the grantees had fulfilled the conditions of the grant. Therefore property was forfeited to the Crown. The lands in question had been settled by other people who had made improvements and wanted to have legal title to their property. Many of those included as grantees were given their property as a reward for military services to the British Crown during the American Revolution or as compensation because their property in the US had been confiscated because they had remained loyal to England. The "Hatfield Grant" consisted of 91632 acres and was issued to 275 individuals and one Church. The area was designated by the name of the Township of Digby and was still part of the County of Annapolis. As Ashbel fought for the American Colonies, it seems somewhat unlikely that he would have joined the Loyalists in Nova Scotia after the American Revolution. Was it because his brother, Dr Jesse Rice, a Loyalist, was living at Yarmouth, NS or some other place in the vicinity?

He married Persis KNIGHTS 14 Jul 1779 at Marlborough, MA^{3 {p300},1 {p82},2 {p129},45 {p15}}. She was born about 1758 in probably Massachusetts. She was also known as Sarah^{2 {p129}}.
