Stephen Paine migrated to New England during the Puritan Great Migration (1621-1640). (See The Directory, by R. C. Anderson, p. 250) Join: Puritan Great Migration Project Discuss: pgm
Stephen Pane, the son of Dane Pane, was baptised on 28 December 1602 in Little Ellingham, Norfolk, England.[1] As the son of Dann Paine and his wife Margaret, he was previously said to be born sometime between 1602 and 1607 at Great Ellingham, Norfolk, England.[2]
Stephen Paine was married in Norfolk, England, by 1629, (birth of son, Stephen) to Neele Adcocke, daughter of John and Elizabeth (Eldred) Adcocke. Stephen and his wife resided at Great Ellingham in Norfolk. [2]
The first U.S. publication of the surname and parents of Stephen Paine's wife Neele was in 1989.[2] Earlier publications name her as Niobe or Rose and may identify Neele as her surname rather than her given name. For example, Torrey's New England Marriages gives her name as Rose, last name unknown, and states that she is called Niobe in her death record.[3] The name Neele is an unusual one that has been challenging for transcribers of the records. It has been suggested that the name might actually be "Noole." Some transcribers of records recorded it as "Niobe" or "Rose," but Sidney Paine rejects these interpretations. Regarding "Rose," Sidney Paine remarked that "readers familiar with 17th century script have little difficulty understanding how [the name Neele] could be mistaken for the more common name Rose."[2]
June 1638 Stephen Paine, his wife and four children were passengers on the Diligent. They arrived in Boston 10 Aug 1638. Banks uses Rose as Mrs. Paine's given name.[4]

1641 Oct 7: served as a Deputy to the General Court [7]
1641 Dec 10: At a meeting of the Massachusetts Bay Colony General Court, was selected as one of four men to "view the way at Braintree" and certify to the next Court meeting. [8]
Buried
21 Aug 1679 Rehoboth, Bristol, Massachusetts.[2][9]
Research needed
From a merge there is another wife....
Stephen married second Alice _____ (aka Elizabeth), widow of William Parker of Taunton.[2]
The will of Stephen Paine dated 18 July 1679 and mentioned "my wife Elizabeth."[10] Also, the inventory was taken on 11 September 1679, and it mentioned "mistress Elizabeth Paine."[11]
It seems to refer to Stephen's second wife, Alice, widow of William Parker.
Research Notes
Transcription error as of 1.7.24, FreeRegUK reports the baptism month as September.[12] Review of the original image confirmed December.

I was working on a FindAGrave suggestion (which gave a baptism I couldn't find). But I did come across this one in FreeRegUk which may be worth considering: Stephen son of Daniel 28 Sep 1602, St. Peter, Little Ellingham, Norfolk. The 1989 NEHGR article says he's the son of Dann, probably born between 1602 and 1607 in Great Ellingham. If someone has access to the original, its possible they mistranscribed the father's name.
Yes, it does look like there was a bad merge here. My edits were aimed at making this the Stephen of Rehoboth. After my edits, Stephen Losey created another profile for the Stephen Paine of of Braintree. Are you now trying to make this one be the Stephen of Braintree again?

Susan approved the merge, and I have tried to consolidate the information from previous merges under a single heading. You can remove Susan from management of the profile, she has suspended her account.
Stephen Paine was the son of Dann Paine and his wife Margaret (last name unknown) of Great Ellingham, Norfolk. He was not the son of Moses Paine and Elizabeth Sheafe of Tenterden, Kent. He arrived in New England in 1638 on the Diligent, not before 1632. See NEHGR, v. 143 (1989), page 296 and thereabouts (also cited in The Great Migration Directory).
As a start toward repairing this situation, I am disconnecting the parents and removing the erroneous text from the biography section.
Ellen - I looks like a bad merge conflated two Stephen Paines. Are you changing this one so that it is for Stephen Paine of Rehoboth and using Paine-3848 for Stephen Paine of Braintree? Looks like there is still a fair amount of Stephen Paine of Braintree in the fields and bio of this profile and most of his children are still attached here.

I think the spelling Paine is preferable for the LNAB, as it was used in the documents I found earlier when researching Paine-429.
