    STAINWOOD, or STAINEWOOD. See Stanwood.

    STAIRES, THOMAS, Windsor, nam. in the will of Rev. Ephraim Hult,
Oct. 1644, is prob. the name man call, serj. S. in the Conn. Rec. 1638.

    STALLION, EDWARD, New London 1650, had, by w. Margaret, Deborah,
wh. m. James Avery Jr.; Sarah, m. 9 Feb. 1674, John Edgecombe;
and Margaret, m. 30 Nov. 1678, Pasco Foote; and by sec. w.
Elizabeth d. of George Miller, m. 1685, had two. ch. of wh. one prob. was
Edward; and in 1693 m. third w. Christian, wid. of William Chapell,
wh. surv. him. This name has singular mutations. It first appears as
Stanley, changes to Stallon, Stolion, or Stallion, and subsides, as Caulkins
shows, into Sterling.

    STAMFORD, THOMAS, at Scarborough, or Saco, sw. fidel. to Mass.
1658.

    STANBURY, STANBERRY or STANBOROUGH, JOSIAH, Lynn 1639,
rem. to Southampton, L. I. had prob. s. Josiah, and d. there 1659. See
Trumbull, Col. Rec. I. 348. JOSIAH, Southampton, L. I. went to New
Haven, m,. 1657, Alse, wid. of Thomas Wheeler, Jr. of N. H. and ret. to
L. I. THOMAS, Boston, by w. Martha ahd Thomas, b. 15 Oct. 1642,
wh. as his mo. join. our ch. 29 Nov. 1645, was bapt. the day foll. being
Sunday, with John, 2 yr. and 11 wks. old; but the careless town rec.
says b. 15 Sept. 1645. He had, also, Nathan, b. 25 Dec. 1646; and
Martha, bapt. 11 Mar. 1649; and d. 27 Sept. 1652. His wid. was bur.
28 Sept. 1685, says Sewall in his Diary. Yet this is giv. by my conject.
only, for there was WILLIAM of Boston, wh. had Sarah bapt. in
right of his w. 1 June 1651, if the rec. be trust., wh. is not in my opin.
clear.

    STANCLIFFE, JAMES, Middletown, had, says Mr. Parsons, betw. 1686
and 1712, William, Martha, James, Sarah, William, again, and James,
again; but no date to either is seen. He d. 3 Oct. 1712, and his wid. of
