from Edmund (1638) Assoc web-site:

Capt. Moses Rice was born on 27 October 1694 at Sudbury, MA.3,4 He was the son of John Rice and Tabitha Stone. Capt. Moses Rice married Sarah King, daughter of Thomas King and Elizabeth Clapp, on 16 November 1719 at Sudbury, MA.1,2,5 Capt. Moses Rice died on 11 June 1755 at Charlemont, MA; killed by Indians. Moses was shot in the arm by the Algonquin Indians, lying in ambush, while ploughing corn. He was carried off to the adjoining woods, where he was tomahawked and scalped. Phineas Arms was killed outright (age 24). Grandson Asa, age about 8, was taken to Canada.6,7 He was buried at Station Cemetery, Charlemont, MA.7
Moses Rice of Worcester settled his account as guardian of "Edward King, alias Rice, from 20 June 1720 to 17 February 1726, when he became of age;" "son of Samuel King, alias Rice." One item in that was a share in his grandfather Clapp's estate of Milton; "the former guardian had deceased". The previous guardian of Edward was John Rice [WRN 23], who died 6 September 1719 and was the guardian for 5 children (not named) of Samuel King, alias Rice, 27 January 1718/19.8 He and Sarah King resided circa 1722 at Worcester, MA, opening a public house on the site of one afterwards kept by Capt. Ephraim Mower, and on which was subsequently erected the "United States Hotel."6 Capt. Moses Rice was in the military in 1724 at Rutland, VT, under the command of Capt. Samuel Wright of Rutland on garrison duty with others from Worcester. He commanded a company of cavalry while he resided at Worcester.6 He resided on 13 April 1737 at Worcester, MA.6 He resided on 9 May 1742 at Rutland, VT, where he, along with Eleazer Ball and Daniel Estabrook, were chosen to provide for the ordination of Joseph Buckminster.6 He purchased 2200 acres of land in the township of Claremont, 23 April 1743, and removed to that place; the time we do not learn.6 He was living after 23 April 1743 at Charlemont, MA, as a prominent man, was 'looked up to', as the head and father of that infant plantation, of which he was the chief promoter and one of its first settlers.6 He collected a great amount of historical matter, comprising an account of many interesting events of which he had been a witness, and in some of which he had borne a conspicuous and in others, a hazardous part. His manuscripts were destroyed by fire.9
