Jerry, If you would like the PAYNE family information, I am always happy to send my "report" generated by my WFT program on the Payne family. I usually begin this with Daniel Paine d. 1839 in Maury Co.,TN. Before that is available from John C. Payne of Chattnooga, TN ([email protected]). The Paynes in Ripley Co. desc from Daniel's son, Micager Paine and wife Elizabeth Allen. There were 5 sons, who came to - or their children did anyway - in Ripley Co. Micager's widow, Elizabeth remarried in Ripley Co. in 1850 to Timothy Hughes and I've never found them after that. Don't know what happened to Micager. He sold his land in Maury Co. to Henry Oakley in 1841 and may have traveled to Missouri with his sons - they seem to have come through part of Arkansas and he may have died there. His brother Robert also migrated to MO via Arkansas as his son, Wm. Shelby Payne, married in Pope Co., AR to Serilda Park in 1843 and I've wondered if perhaps that is a place to look for Micager's grave. Thank you, Donna, I do have that Parthene Frances Payne #2 marriage was to Thomas Jefferson Crook, but since the book of obituaries only covers to 1910, it does not have her obit as she died in 1931. There is an obit for Lilly B. Crook, mother of Thomas Jefferson Crook. "Ripley Co., Records - Obituaries" by Thelma McManus pg. 96 - 18 Jan 1895 - Mrs. Lilly B. Crook, a pensioner of the Mexican War, died at home of her son, W.A. Crook on Sunday last - age 80 yrs - lived in Flatwoods and long time resident of county. Now, this would tell me that she collected a pension on her husband, William Alexander Crook's Mexican War service. That might be worth sending for. Pamela Geisler Smith Gresham, OR
Pam, Thanks for the obit.
