Have you had the opportunity in your research of the Payne/Jennings connection seen the book, "Documented Notes on JENNINGS and Allied Families" by Beatrice Mackey Doughtie? It was published in 1961. Library of CongressCatalog card #61-17787. It is found in many genealogy libaries. There is info on the Paynes and Jennings you are inquiring about in the book - how inclusive it may be I would not attempt to answer at this time but I do feel you will a possible answer to your querie. I do not have a connection to the John Jennings you mention to my knowledge - just wanted to attempt to be of help. Regards, Tyre Jennings Houston, TX
