Sources
The lines presented here are from Andrew H. Ward, A Genealogical History of the Rice Family (Boston: C. Benjamin Richardson, 1858).
Although efforts have been made to enumerate descendants not listed by Wardfor example, the Edmund Rice Associations Genealogical Register of Edmund Rice Descendants (Rutland, Vt.: Charles E. Tuttle Company, 1970)Ward remains the basic source on this family.
Valuable contributions have been made to the English history of Edmund Rice, most notably Mary Lovering Holman, English Notes on Edmund Rice,
American Genealogist 10 (1933/4): 133-7, and
Robert Charles Anderson, The English Origins of Philemon Whale,
Genealogist 6 (1985): 131-41, but Edmunds ancestry has yet to be discovered.
