Lt John Boyden was born on 7 August 1719 at Sudbury / Needham, MA, (not found in the published records).^2,3 He was the son of Joseph Boyden and Rebecca (?).² Lt John Boyden married Elizabeth Rice, daughter of Lieut. Gershom Rice Jr and Esther Haynes, circa 1744.^1,2,3 Lt John Boyden died circa 1773 at Worcester (Auburn), MA; (not found in the published records).^2,3
Rice Family - S2/P2 incorrectly describes John and Elizabeth Boyden's children as being born at Auburn, New York. They were probably born in an area that is now Auburn, Massachusetts. The births through 1750, as well as the baptisms thereafter, appear in the published Worcester vital records. Note that the town of Auburn was not set off from Worcester until 1778 and was called Ward until 1837.

     John Rice was born on 17 December 1738 at Worcester, MA, (literally 1738-9 per vital records, but 1739 per Ward, and shown as December 26th per Supplement).^1,3,4,5 He was the son of Matthias Rice and Mary Boyden. John Rice married Sarah Smith, daughter of Zephaniah Smith and Abigail Wheeler, on 7 May 1761 at Sudbury, MA; (6th per Rice Gen'l Register).^6,4,3 John Rice married Mary Potter, daughter of Joseph Potter and Zebudah Hayden, on 22 April 1785 at Clements, Annapolis Co, NS; (21st per Rice Gen'l Register).^4,3 John Rice died on 2 May 1811 at Annapolis Royal, Annapolis Co, NS.^7,8,4
     John Rice resided circa 1760 at Annapolis, Annapolis Co, NS.¹ He immigrated to Nova Scotia on the ship Charming Molly with Beriah Rice and Ebenezer Rice Jr. He settled on the west side of the Lequille River. Your authors note that John Rice and Ebenezer Rice's names do not appear on the manifest of the Charming Molly, a manifest that has survived.⁴ He was listed in the township records as surveyor of land in April 1792 at Annapolis Royal, Annapolis Co, NS.⁹ He left a will on 4 April 1811 at Annapolis Royal, Annapolis Co, NS,, which was recorded 24 May 1811 naming wife Mary and children Mary Potter the wife of Israel Potter, William, James, Silas, and Thomas.⁷
     The Rice Genealogical Register, 1970, says "John went to Nova Scotia on ship 'Charming Molly' with Beriah Rice and Ebenezer Rice Jr. He settled on the west side of Lequille River." In his 1897 History of the County of Annapolis, W A Calnek provides the passenger manifest the first trip of the Charming Molly. A Beriah Rice, together with Beriah's sons Stephen and Benjamin, are on that manifest; John Rice's name is not. This does not mean that John did not arrive in 1760, only that he was not on the first, recorded trip of the Charming Molly.
In his addendum to Calnek's history, Judge Savary provides a list of petitioners for a Grant of Confirmation of the Township of Annapolis, dated October 30th, 1765. John Rice's name was not on that list.
Back to Calnek's history, John Rice's name appears on the census of 1768 for Annapolis. He has three males and three females in his household, all American. He was enumerated in the 1770 census with six people in his household, two American and four Acadian. We may assume that the four Acadians were his children born in Nova Scotia.
According to Marion B McCormick, 1975: 'He was the ancestor of the greater part of the Annapolis Valley Rice family. He was a friend of Col. Hoar and settled on part of his farm, and during the Colonel's absences from home, he looked after the affairs of his friend. After the Colonel's death, John bought part of the estate, and later passed it on to his son James, who had been born on the farm, and who dies there in 1886.'
