[or-roots] The Rice family of Douglas County

[sallyya@frontiernet.net]

I do not have information on the family bible , I do have a book that profiles the William Street Rice family with the writer being Helen  L. Luginbuhl his great granddaughter. there is also a picture that is of William Mary Josephine and Alida Vdora Lewis a grandniece orphaned in 1859. If this information would be of help to you I can scan it and sent it to you.Sally in southern oregon

 My 2great grandmother, Cordelia St Clair’s aunt was Mary St Clair Rice, wife of William Street Rice. Street and Mary were early settlers in Douglas County, Oregon. Mary kept a bible in which many earlier members of the Rice family were recorded (including Cordelia’s). The bible was referenced and partially transcribed in the 70/80’s by Stanley and Velma Rice and noted in their 1996 publication “Moses and Margaret Rice Family, from Canada to the West Coast, 1784-1996”  I believe more information could be gleamed by obtaining a copy of the original. Stanley and Velma have passed as have most from whom they gathered their information. The location of the bible is unknown (to several currant researchers). It is not with the County Genealogical Society. Are any members of this list familiar with Rice descendants who might have access to or know anything about that bible? Any other suggestions as to where to look?
Thanks for your time
