He became a state senator and served in the 1836 Seminole War. His father was an architect, with a likely given name of William or Orris, who built many of the public buildings in Milledgeville. William married Cornelia Smets, daughter of A. A. Smets. William died in Savannah, Ga. in 1882. I know the following people are related to him, but am not positive of the precise connection: Jane M. Paine (sister?), m. 1825 to Richard M. ORNE Orris Snow Paine, m. in 1817 to Catherine E. WISEHAM of Va. Orris Snow Paine, Jr., m. Mary Ashton TERRETT of Va. Elizabeth Carrington Paine, m.
