EDMUND RICE was born in England about 1594, probably in Stanstead, Suffolk. He was either younger brother or son of Henry Rice who married Elizabeth Frost, sister of Thomasine, in 1605. The marriage of Edmund Rice and Thomasine Frost was recorded on the register of Saint Mary’s, Bury, Suffolk, on 10/15/1618. She was born in Stanstead, Suffolk, on 8/11/1600, the daughter of a wealthy clothier, Edward Frost….She died in Sudbury, MA, on 6/13/1654, and Edmund married again in Marlboro, MA, on 3/1/1655, Mercy (Hurd), the widow of Thomas Brigham of Cambridge, MA. She had three sons and two daughters by her first marriage. Edmund died on 5/3/1663 in Marlboro, but was buried in Sudbury….
The Rice family lived first in Stanstead, Suffolk, and later in Great Barkhamstead, Hartfordshire, England. They were settled in Sudbury, MA, by 1639, where Edmund was made Freeman in 1640. He was Selectman in 1639, 1644, and subsequently Deacon in 1640 and Representative in 1654.
He was one of the substantial men of the plantation, owning lands in and out of the town, some by the grant of the Court. He shared in all the divisions of uplands and commons. The total number of acres which he received as an original inhabitant was 247 acres. His first dwelling in Sudbury was on old North Street. This he sold in 1642 to John Moore…. He bought of the Widow Mary Axtell six acres of land with her dwelling house, in the south part of the town, and some years afterwards he bought of Philemon Whale…his house and nine acres adjacent to the Axtell place. These together formed the old Rice homestead in Sudbury, which remained in the family for many years. In 1647 he took a ten-year lease on the Oliver Glover farm, mostly in what is now Framingham. In 1657 he bought 200 more acres. In 1656 he was a petitioner for the new town of Marlborough, where he received grants of a house-lot and fifty acres, and other lands in proportion, and whither he removed in 1660.
His inventory amounted to £566, the house, etc., to £170.
