In searching for Georganne, I have found several RICE families in and around Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. Putting them together is like a jigsaw puzzle. They, I am sure all all related but how is the question. I do see an Ezekial Rice 1774-1847. He was born in Virginia and died in Muhlenberg Kentucky so he and his brothers are surely related to Watkins, we just have to find the correct path of lineage. A new project for me!
