Ray, the wife's name is Zerviah/Serviah, not Sarah. She was of Freetown at marriage in 1781, not Braintree. I would suggest unlinking Sarah, and creating a new Zerviah.

Zerviah/Serviah Pain married Seth Ramsdell in Middleboro:

American Ancestors, Middleboro VRs Vol. 2:99, Publishments
"[May 19, 1781] Also Mr. Seth Ramsdell of Middleboro & Mrs. Surviah Pain of Freetown"

I realize the wife wasn't your work originally, but I wonder if we can get it fixed. I'll see if I can find more to identify her.
