Person talk:Oliver Rice (1)

death date [25 August 2014]

I removed the unsourced death date of 1755 in Bennington, Bennington, Vermont, United States. Ward in his History of the Rice Family says Oliver "was a soldier from that town [Hardwick] in 1757" which contradicts a death in 1755. Since he m. 1742, his son would not be old enough yet. Ward also says "No record there [Hardwick] of the death of either of the parents", meaning Oliver and his wife Hannah. Hardwick VRs, p. 91, shows the birth of "----, d. of Oliver and Hannah, ---, 27, 1759." 3 AFN's show this death date, and two of those show the children born after the death date, which speaks to the credibility of AFN's. --Jrich 16:07, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
