The 2007 Rice Family Reunion

The descendants of Daisy Lavender Rice gathered in McCalla, Alabama for a weekend of fellowship, celebration, reflection, and thanksgiving. It was truly a blessed time, as four generations, ranging in age from eighty years to only a few months old, assembled together once again.

Unfortunately the one person who probably could have absolutely answered this passed away a couple of years ago. Her name was Ruth Wilder Harris and she was a living history book for not only our family, but all the other families that came out of those fields in Greene County. Since Rice was the name of the slaveowner, there were at least two other family lines besides ours.

Several years ago, when I was living in Los Angeles, I met a lady who had married into a Rice family which, as Mrs. Harris was able to clearly show, came from one of the other families in Greene County. If I remember correctly, Mrs. Harris said that this particular family mostly lived in Eutaw, whereas my family remained in a part of the county known as Mantua and Lewiston. It was amazing to hear Mrs. Harris explain who married who, when, and where they went.
