The marriage of Ann Whiting and Robert Paine is well-proved by the will of Ann's father, John Whiting in which he bequeaths to his son-in-law Robert Paine/Payne and lists Robert's two sons, John and Robert. The will was written 2 Apr 1637 at Hadley, Suffolk (England) before Robert emigrated to New England and gives John's house and land at Newton called "Saracen Head" to Robert. The language of the will strongly implies that Ann Whiting Paine was dead by this date as it does NOT mention Ann at all but bequeaths to Robert (jr) and John, "the two sons that he (i.e. Robert) had by my daughter".[1] John Whiting was evidently fairly wealthy as he bequeathed gifts of 500 and 700 pounds along with land and other items. John Whiting Sr. also required that Robert "seal a release to my son John Whiting for all former promises" which seems to meen that John Jr. must have owed Robert money. The will of John Whiting Jr on the next page of the source written 16 Jan 1643 at Hadleigh, Suffolk (England) then goes on to forgive a 100 pound debt from "my brother Payne in New England"
Her mother was Rose who was alive in April 1637, as is proven by John Whiting's will.
