THANK YOU AGAIN VINCE FOR ALL AND ESPECIALLY THIS TIME FOR MORE ON Floyd M. Boring..... .TAKE GOOD. CARE B...

The most important man in the Secret Service on November 22, 1963 was the Special Agent in Charge of the New Orleans office John W. Rice, who was never questioned about what his role was in the investigation of the assassination and may still be alive.

Any information about him at all would be appreciated, but we've gone over every other Secret Agent a hundred times and we know nothing about the only one who really matters - John W. Rice.

Where was he from?

Where did he go to school?

How did he get into the Secret Service?

How did he get such an important position as SAIC of NO while so young?

Who was the John W. Martin he was sent to investigate at 1 pm on 11/22/63?

Why was John W. Rice, SAIC of the NO SS office in the office of the Special Investigations office of the US AFB at Schrieveport, La. when the assassination took place?

What became of the official records of Adele Edisen's telephone contacts with him before the assassination and the interview records after the assassination?

Was John W. Rice, SAIC of NO with the FBI liason with the SS Orrin Bartlett interviewing Adele Edisen in New Orleans at the time Ruby killed Oswald and what became of those records?

Did Rice and Bartlett fly in a private plane from New Orleans to Dallas that afternoon, and if so, what became of those records?

Since John W. Rice, SAIC NO SS was responsible for all aspects of the Secret Service investigations in New Orleans, why wasn't he questioned by the WC, HSCA or ARRB, and what became of him?

Is he still alive?

Why is no one else interested in locating him and interviewing him, or finding out where he came from and what happened to him?


Thanks to anyone else who is interested in this person and for trying to answer any of these questions,

Bill,

John W. Rice has been dead for a minimum of 6 years and 4 months. This is his sister, Mary's obit. It is authentic because it describes the first names of Mary's nieces, who my research matches as secret service agent John Rice's' two daughters, described in a April 16, 1959 El Paso Herald Post newspaper column titled, "Talk of the Town".



1930 Census page (Line 76 - Family of four, father "Johnie H" is head of household)


John W. Rice is listed as 15 years old, so approx. DOB is 1915:
