About Dorothy Paine

Am searching for info on Dorothy Rainsford of Boston, Mass. (1663-1755) married Nathaniel Paine, Jr.(Judge) Bristal,RI (1661-1723). Specifically looking for Rainsford siblings and info on children. Have info only on their son, Col. Stephen Paine.

Dorothy's father was Jonathon Rainsford, her mother was Mary Sunderland. The only other thing I know about her is that her Paternal GM was Elizabeth Dillie (b. 1607). Now I'm stuck.

Jonathan Raynsford,born Nov.8,1636 had five children by his wife Mary Sunderland. He was the son of Edward Raynsford and his second wife, Elizabeth. Edward Raynsford has a Royal Line through his mother Mary Kirton. This is documented in Plantagenet Ancestry of Seventeenth Century Colonists, 2nd Edition by David Farus, 1999, New England Historic Genealogical Society.

Mary Rainsford born 1632 married William Bassett born 1624.

Her father was Edward Rainsford(Raynesford) born 1609, don't know his spouse's name.
