Charlotte, Just read your post: I am researching Louisa Addison Payne....I believe her mother was Elizabeth Turley Payne. I would appreciate any information. I have a letter written to her % of John Turley in Mt Sterling. I would appreciate any help or information. Thank you in advance for any help. Charlotte I have researched some of the Payne family ca. 1800- 1900. This group passed from PA. thru OH to KY, back to OH and KY to IN in the late 1790's to early 1820's. I don't recognize the two women you reference but would love to know if they may be connected to my Payne line. Can you tell me what the date of the letter you mentioned was? If you have any further info on these women and their history I would love to see if there may be a connection. Thanks Mike
