=====================
From “The American Genealogist”, vol. 10, page 199, April 1934, "English Origin of Stephen Gates" by Clarence Almon Torrey, Ph.B., of Dorchester, MA
Daniel Cushing, an early resident of Hingham, MA, left a record of persons who came from Hingham and towns adjacent in County Norfolk, England, which was published in the “Register” of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, vol. 15, pp. 25-27. This record mentions Stephen Gates, who came in The Diligent, in 1638, from “Old Hingham”, with his wife and two children. Stephen’s wife was Ann, as we know from New England records, and their children were Elizabeth and Mary.
The Gates items in the register, prior to 1645, are as follows. (Acknowledgement is made to the late Col. Charles E. Banks for his extracts from the Hingham Parish Records, used by permission of his daughter.)

From “Stephen Gates of Hingham and Lancaster Massachusetts And His Descendants, A Preliminary Work Subject To Addition And Correction, compiled by Charles Otis Gates, New York, Willis McDonald & Co., Publishers, 1898”
Ann, the widow of Stephen Gates, married Richard Woodward of Watertown, MA, in 1663. The “Chute Genealogy” says: “Richard Woodward, aged 45, and wife, Rose, aged 50, Ipswich, England, came to Watertown, Mass., in 1634, with his two sons, George and John. Rose died in 1662, aged 80.” (?) “He married 2nd, Ann, widow of Stephen Gates and died February 16, 1665, aged 76.”
Ann resumed the name of Gates on the death of Richard Woodward and died at Stow, MA, February 5, 1682-3.
NAME:
According to the Chute Genealogy, by William E. Chute (p. 1 xvii), Stephen’s wife was Ann Hill. This statement has been repeated by later writers and was generally accepted by Stephen’s descendants, including Charles Otis Gates in his 1898 book. That the statement is erroneous is evident from the record of his marriage in the parish register of Hingham, England.
The last name of Veare originated with Charles E. Banks and was repeated by Clarence Almon Torrey. Percival Boyd seems to have based his use of the name Veare on the Banks transcripts. There is no clue in the Hingham register to the identity of Ann Veare. No other person bearing that family name is mentioned.
NEW RESEARCH seems to show that Anne's last name was Neave. An Ann Neave, daughter of Thomas Neave was christened in Hingham, England 16 June 1611. This is the only Ann in the records. (From Harrison, Edward J. "Ann Neave, Wife of Stephen Gates, 1638 Immigrent to Massachusetts", The New England Historical and Genealogical Register volume 163 (April 2009)). Mr. Harrison's research turned up 16 burials for Neaves or Neeves during 1600 - 1700. Indeed, the Banks transcripts of the Hingham, Norfolk registers have only 1 record of Veare but 20 entries for Neave. Additionally, Mr. Harrison conducted a thorough investigation of the original registers and makes a strong case for Anne's last name to be Neave.
