The surname Rice is identical RICE with Roice, or Royce. which was the spelling in use in this family during the first century or more in this country.
(I) Robert Royce, or Rice, immigrant
ancestor. was born in England, and came in 1634 in the ship "Francis" to Boston. Some accounts locate him in Boston in 1631, and he seems to have been a member of the Bos- ton church, in fact, as early as 1632. He : was admitted a freeman, April 1. 1034. He was disarmed by the Boston authorities in 1639 because of his support of Wheelwright and Anne Hutchinson in their religious views. He removed to Stratford, Connec- ticut, in 1644, and was there in 1656. He located at New London, Connecticut, in 1657. and was constable there in 1660, and member of the general assembly in 1662.

(VI) Jehiel Rice, son of John (2) Royce, was, according to the best evidence obtain- able, born at Woodbury, about 1730. We have no further record of him except that Jehiel, Jr .. his son, was called junior as late as 1779. when he was a soldier in the revo- lution, showing that the father was then liv-" ing. Possibly he went to Lanesborough.
(VII) Jehiel (2), son of Jehiel (1) Rice. was born in Woodbury, or Washington. Connecticut. August 23. 1758. He was a soldier in Captain Stanley's company. in July, 1779. (See Conn. Hist. Soc., vol. viii, 9, 194). He removed to Lanesbor- ough, Massachusetts, after 1779, where his uncles had located. In 1790 he and his un- cle. Adonijah, were living and leads of families at Lanesborough. Berkshire county. Most of the others went to Vermont. The name is spelled Rice in the census, but Royce in the town history. Adonijah had three males over sixteen in his family, one under that age, and seven females. Jehiel (spelled Jaheel) had three sons under sixteen and one female (wife probably ) in his family. In 1803 he went to northern New York and settled in the wilderness one mile from the present village of Lowville, Lewis county. and cleared his farm. He eventually had a farm of two hundred and thirty acres. He married. November 26. 1761. Pernal Rice, a relative, thought to be daughter of one of the Lanesborough uncles. They had Abel. mentioned below. Doubtless other children.
(VHII) Abel, son of Jehiel (2) Rice, was born in Lanesborough, and came with his parents to Lewis county, New York, in 1803. He died April 3. 1871. He shared in the arduous toil of clearing the wild land and building the house and barns. He be- came in course of time one of the most pres perous farmers and business men of the county in his day. He built the first card- ing mill in Lewis county and operated ::

He contributed the results of his own experiments, research and experience to the agricultural journals of the state from time to time. and for many years prepared the Lewis county crop report for the New York state bulletins. He was one of the most prominent farmers of the county ; a man of sterling integrity and up- rightness, possessing the respect and con- fidence of the entire community. In 1842 he joined the Methodist Episcopal church and at one time served on the official board. He was a trustee of Lowville Academy.

(The Doty Line).
The surname Doty was variously spelled Dotey. Doten, Doton. Dolton, Dowty, and the similar surname Doughty is found at an early date in Plymouth colony, where Fran- cis Doughty from Bristol, England. settled at Taunton as early as 1639, and James

Doughty settled at Scituate before 1649. The origin of the name has not been satis- factorily settled. but there is reason to be- lieve that the family had been in England several generations before the sailing of the "Mayflower".
(I) Edward Doty, immigrant, was one of the Pilgrim fathers. He came in the "Mayflower" in the employ of Stephen Hopkins. He had been apprenticed to a London tanner and was called servant, meaning apprentice, in the Plymouth rec- ords. Hopkins was a tanner. Doty was among the signers of the famous Compact drawn and executed on board the "May- flower" at Plymouth. He was of the party that set forth to explore the country. De- cember 6. 1620. That Doty and his fel- low-apprentice were not at that time thor- oughly Puritanic in their views may be judged from the fact that they fought a duel. But a small part of the English peo- ple had come to disapprove of the duel. but the Pilgrim fathers saw fit to punish the combatants. They fought with swords and daggers and one was wounded in the hand. the other in the thigh. They were ad- judged by the whole company "to have their head and feet tied together, and so to be for twenty-four hours, without meat and drink, which was begun to be inflicted, but within an hour, because of their great pains, at their own and their master's humble re- quest. upon promise of better carriage, they are released by the governor". His later disputes he took to court, and we find his name appearing often as plaintiff or defend- ant in the civil court. In 1624 he was granted land on Watson Hill. Plymouth, for a home lot. He had joined the church and was admitted a freeman before March 7. 1636-37. One of the first deeds at P'ly- mouth on record is dated July 12. 1637. Edward Doty to Richard Derby, signs with a mark. He hal many real estate tran-ac- tions, and his rates show that he was in late life a man of property. His occupation is given as planter, indicating that he did not
find much opportunity to follow his trade. In 1652 he was one of the purchasers of the Dartmouth tract. The name of his first wife is unknown. Governor Bradford tell- us that Faith Clarke, daughter of Thurston Clarke, was his second wife. They were married at Plymouth. January 6, 1634-35. He died at Plymouth. August 23. 1655. Ilis will was dated May 20, 1655, and proved November 21, 1655. bequeathing to his wife and children, mentioning Edward only by name. His wife Faith married ( second ). March 14. 1666, John Phillips, of Plymouth. The oldest house in Plymouth is the Doten house: the oldest wharf was named for Doty-Doten. Faith Clarke was born in 1619, daughter of Thurston and Faith Clarke. They came from Ipswich. Suffolk. England, in the ship "Francis" in 1634. His name is also spelled Tristram Clarke. Children of second wife: Edward. men- tioned below: John, 1639-40: Thomas : Samuel: Desire. 1645: Elizabeth: Isaac. February 8. 1648-49: Joseph, April 30. 1651; Mary.

His father was drowned when he was a young lad, and Thomas Faunce and John Doty were ap- pointed his guardians. He was a mariner. He sold his property at Plymouth in 1705 to his brother-in-law, Captain James War- ren. He removed to Saybrook, Connecti- cut, in 1703. In 1708 he bought a home lot at Saybrook Point for sixty pounds, and afterward acquired much land in that town. He traded with the Barbadoes and West In- dies and was a prominent merchant. His new sloop, "Six Friends". was impressed for naval purposes by the government in 1710. In October. 1727, he was chosen captain of the trainband ; he was a member of the Connecticut general assembly in 1732-37.

York, whither several sons and relatives had already located. He had a grist mill there.

Jolin Rice, pioneer ancestor of RICE the branch of the Rice family here under consideration. was born in Bavaria, 1807. died October 16. 1896. He emigrated to the United States in 1844, and the following year was united
in marriage to Louise Beaum in Schenec- tady, New York. Desiring to purchase some land at a low rate, he journeyed north, going by stage from Rome to Lowville. and the route from New Bremen village to Beach Hill, where they finally settled, was only a trail through the woods. Here they endured all the hardships and privations of the first settlers, but they cleared and improved the land, erected substantial build- ings, and by thrift, perseverance and indus- try accumulated a comfortable competence for their declining years. He was a man of strict integrity and sturdy honesty, and he laid the foundation for a life of useful- ness, which his children have followed. His wife, who was a helpmeet in every sense of the word. died April 13, 1902. Among their children was Philip A .. see forward.
Philip A., son of John and Louise (Beaum ) Rice, was born at New Bremen, New York, March 26, 1860. He acquired a practical education in the common schools of the neighborhood, and after completing his studies worked for the farmers in that section. Concluding to make progressive farming his vocation in life, he first rented and then purchased one of the most pro- ductive and valuable farms in Lewis county. This farm, known as "Popular Grove," is nicely located in Lowville near the city. Mr. Rice has achieved a large degree of suc- cess owing to the fact that he gives his work that intelligent supervision which is so necessary. He makes a specialty of dairying and is continually striving to im- prove his methods. His buildings are mod- ern in construction and equipped with all necessary appliances for the conduct of a successful business. The premises are neatly and tastefully laid out, and in all respects his farm is one of the most pro- gressive and up-to-date in the state, showing clearly the hand of a master. Mr. Rice is hospitable, generous and frien Ily, and enjoys the esteem and friendship of all with whom he is associated, being recognized as one of the substantial and influential men

of the county. He is a staunch Republi- can in his political views, and he and his family are regular attendants of the Low- ville Methodist Church, in the work of which they take an active interest.

Louie John, born October 18, 1884, died May 25, 1896. 2. Ernest Arleigh, born June 5. 1893. Louis and Louise Veomett were natives of Switz- erland; shortly after their marriage they emigrated to the United States, settling at Turin, New York, where they prospered in their undertakings for a number of years; finally their health failed and they both died in the prime of life, leaving a number of small children.
The surname Doig is of ancient
DOIG Scotch origin. Soon after 1800 there came to this country from Perthshire, Scotland, Andrew. James, Wal- ter and Paul Doig. Various countries of Europe have contributed many of their best sons to assist in the developing and build- ing up of the free government of the United States, and no country has sent to our shores more sturdy, more hardy, more industrious or honest men than Scotland. The pio- neers from that country and their descend- ants have been among the leaders in busi- ness circles of every community in which they are located.
(I) Andrew Doig was born in Perthi- shire, Scotland, and came soon after 1800 to this country with three brothers. He settled in Lowville. Lewis county, New York. At first the brothers located in Jack- son, Washington county. He died in Low- ville in 1855. He married Polly Thomp- son. Children : Andrew, James, John. men- tioned below.

with marked success throughout his active life. He enjoyed a large and flourishing trade and acquired a competence. He became the owner of a large tract of land in what is now the most valuable part of the vil- lage. He was an upright, high-minded citi- zen, and enjoyed the fullest confidence and esteem of his townsmen. In politics he was a Democrat. and though he never sought public office he accepted from time to time positions of trust and honor in the town and village. He was trustee, treas- urer and president of the village at vari- ous times. He was a man of great pub- lic spirit and possessed a great influence among his fellow citizens. He was a trus- tee of Lowville Academy, and for many years treasurer of the board. He was a prominent member of the Masonic frater- nity and one of the first masters of Low- ville Lodge, No. 134, Free and Accepted Masons. He married, May 1. 1848, Maria, born at Lowville, November 24. 1824, daughter of Ziba and Lucy P. ( Leven- worth) Knox, granddaughter of Samuel Levenworth, who died in the service on the frontier during the war of 1812. Her father. Ziba Knox, was born at Cavendishi, Windsor county, Vermont. September 22. 1797, eldest son of Sylvanus Knox, of the same family as General Henry Knox. of revolutionary fame. Until 1815 the almost unaided efforts of Ziba Knox were directed to the acquisition of a thorough English education in his native state : in 1812 he was fortunate in obtaining limited instruction in Latin from Rev. Jonathan Going, formerly professor of languages in Brown Univer- sity : he studied law in the offices of Hon. Charles Dayan, with whom he was after- ward in partnership: was admitted to prac- tice in 1826; was a magistrate from Janu- ary 1. 1835. until he died, a period of thirty- three years: in 1824 he was commissioned captain in the One Hundred and First New York Regiment. Twenty-sixth Brigade: in 1820 he was elected inspector of the com- mon schools of Lowville: in i84t he was
