Thomas Paine was born in Thetford (in England) and stayed there until he was around 18 years old. Afterwards he went to London, probably due to the fact that corsetmakers (that was his job- worked as an apprentice for his father, Joseph Pain) were having to endure a "declining market" and maybe because he wanted a little adventure...
