Birth*	Esther was born on 13 February 1763.3
Marriage*	She married Moses Bartlett, son of Ebenezer Bartlett and Anna Ball, on 31 July 1791 in Newton, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts.

Nathaniel Brown of N. Yarmouth, ME).      Year only in Early Settlements. NEHGS lists Moses as "of Sudbury, Canada".4,2,1

Birth*	Mary, daughter of Azariah Rice and Hannah Bartlett, was born on 20 October 1734 in Brookfield, Middlesex (now Worcester) Co., Province of Massachusetts Bay, New England.3,1
Marr-Banns*	Marriage record of Mary Rice and Reuben Old was published in October 1754. Hibner writes, "The Rice Family says she married Jonathan Walker, but this would appear to be in error".4,5
ResearchNote*	Research Note of 29 January 2025 re Rice Family. Ward's book does not have a section on Mary. It skips from Jonas to Ephraim. FamilySearch Trees (LZGC-Y4T) claims Mary m2 Jonathan Walker in 1763 at Sudbury. But the record cited gives her name as Mary Rice, not Mary Olds, so I suspect this is a different person.6
