Notes

!SOURCE: Email from Beverly H to Weldon Whipple, 11 Apr 2015. She notes the following:

In 1850 I believe Amy's husband is alive and in California but he either dies or does not return as in 1858 Amy marries husband #2 James Henry Rice. I do not find them in 1860 and Amy dies in 1868. Her second husband remarries and one of Amy's children with Capron is found living w/ him in 1870.

1870 Census, Waterford, New London, CT:

• James Rice, 45, Farmer, b. Ireland $2000 $500
• Cordelia, 25, keeping house, b. Ireland (2nd wife Mary Cordelia Hawkins)
• Anna Finell, 4, b CT
• John Rice, 8, CT
• Mary J Rice, 6, CT
• William Rice, 4, CT
• Daniel Rice, 1, CT
• Addison Capron, 17, laborer, b. CT (son of Amy and John S. Capron)

According to A Modern History of New London, CT (Marshall, 1922), Amy died at the birth of her last child, the name of the child given in that source is Thomas Rice b 8.29.1868 (whether that child d. or is the Daniel age 1 appearing in the 1870 census is unknown. James Rice m his second wife in 1869 so Daniel could possibly be their child.)

Amy married James Henry Rice 4.6.1858. According to the source upon Mr. Rice's marriage to Amy Whipple Capron he became a resident of the old Whipple house in the Gilead section of Waterford built by Anthony Whipple in 1642 (my note, not sure who this very early Anthony was but undoubtably Amy came from the Waterford Whipple line.)

Her children with James Rice were:

• John b 12.17.1861 b Waterford CT (d 1934 FindaGrave)
• Mary Jane b 2.20.1863 Waterford (d 1871)
• William b 3.20.1865 Waterford (d 1925)
• Thomas b 8.29.1868 Waterford (another source has b on the 26th)
