      "Let me offer some primary sources (Bible records and Arnold's VR) o n t he inconsistency of who Barbara Rice, d/o Elnathan (Whipple) and Joh n Ric e married. This Barbara Rice was born April 24, 1706 in Warwick (Ar nold' s VR) and married Langford on May 11, 1727 in East Greenwich , R I (Arnol d's VR). Births of six of their children are recorded in Eas t Greenwich , RI (Arnold's VR).

      The Barbara Rice who married Benjamin Arnold was born March 18, 1723/ 2 4 (Arnold Bible records copied 1936 by Josephine Keefer Short and avail ab le at the RI Historical Society). She was the daughter of John Rice, J r . (1696-1746/7), tho John and Elnathan (Whipple) Rice, and Avis Tibbet t s (d. 1760), making her the niece of the first Barbara Rice and stil l a W hipple descendant.
