The treasure today is the birth entry for Dinah Rice (1693-1725) in the Marlborough, Massachusetts vital record book:
The birth entry is the first one at the top of the page:
The transcription of this record is: RICE, Dinah, d. Edmond and Rutth, Oct. 15, 1693.

Dear Randy: How Do You Manage To Do All You Do? Wow, I am stunned at how much you accomplished in a week! I was busy working on a variety of genealogy-related things, but my list of accomplishments is much shorter than yours. How do you manage this? Perhaps my question should be, How do you keep from falling down deep rabbit holes that eat up all your time and attention? There s just so much to learn, so much to discover! (I m new to your blog. There s a wealth of information here!)
Thank you, Barb, for the comment and compliment.
