Payne was born caught my eye. Ancestry.com lists at least four children who lived past 1880. If you have not done so, consider checking the 1880 census for these four. This census lists the birthplace of the father and mother of each enumerated person. Thanks, Phil Goff Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
