2. About 1888 he was probably in St Paul, Ramsey Co MN where he married Grace Vance. Grace was the dau. of Joseph Vance & Harriet Walton Hall. The Hall family was active in MN newspaper business.
3. In Nov 1899 The St Paul (MN) Daily Globe reported the death in Brooklyn, Kings Co NY of Lyman Wells Rice, aged 7 years. The son of Mr and Mrs Charles Rice late of St Paul. MN.

5. 1910 census has Charles W Rice & wife Grace lodging with others in Rutherford, Bergen Co, NJ. No children enumerated, although Grace is enumerated as having 2 children, both living. Occupation was commercial traveler, perfumery.
