I received a copy of the 1883 marriage certificate to the second wife of John T. Payne in DC to Mary Foster. Were there marriage forms that were filled out to apply for the certificate? If so how do I go about getting copies of that? On the same copy as my John T. Payne's marriage certificate there are 2 others. I have printed the information here.

On the marriage of the of my John T. Payne & Mary A. ??? it says they were married by J. J. Webster the minister of Meth. Epis. church (Methodist Episcopal Church) in Georgetown, DC. on April 24, 1883. Can anyone give me more information on this church? Does it still exist? Where would I find the records for the mid 1800's. Does anyone have the DC directory for that time period? Would you please check for the church? If you responded to this request on an earlier date I thank you...but my service was down for three days and I lost all the emails during that time. Would you please resend any replies. Thank you for your kindness, Diane

Hi Cousins: I will be gone for a week starting Saturday morning so I wanted to bring you up to date on what's going on. I received about 12 replies to the recent inquiry I sent on how we may best access the info in the 22 boxes of Col. Payne. Some suggested we contact the Mormon Church for assisstance. Two indicated they could go to Charlottesville for a brief period and work. Several of you suggested we employ such means as the use of digital photography or a flatbed scanner and convert to CD's. I'm taking these matters up with LDS in SLC and am awaiting their reply. They did indicate they would consider a proposal from us to microfilm the contents of the boxes and put on CD's, if we could assure them that some of the materials were NOT already contained in the "Payne's of Virginia".(I don't know how we would do that so if you have any ideas let me know). In addition, they would want to have the contents of the boxes organized so that a Table of Contents and /or Index could be created so that a patron could reasonably identify where to look once the CD were produced. That is where we would need some one on site to perform that task so filming could proceed. That task should be done anyway regardless of the method used to capture the information ie, digital or scanning. All for now. I'll get back to you in about a week. Don Payne

Hi, I have found this marriage information online about my 3rd great grandfather, William J. Payne and my grandmother, Lavina, and wonder if it's worth sharing? Also have found some Census information on the Indiana Paynes. If anyone should know anything at all about my William J. Payne and his wife Lavina, please contact me. All help is much appreciated. Thanks. Sincerely, Sondra Sklong1@aol.com ---------------------------> Indiana State Library Genealogy Division "N - O - P - Q - R" Indiana Marriages Through 1850 ------------------------------------------- Last Name, Bride or Groom: PAYNE First Name, Bride or Groom: WILLIAM J Last Name, Spouse: STONE First Name, Spouse: LAVINA County : Franklin (Indiana) Date : 5/5/1838 Remarks: URL: http://www.statelib.lib.in.us/tango3/marriage/n-o-p-q-r.taf?_function=detail&L ayout_0_uid1=45194&_UserReference=BA514228922DE94ABD3854C3 -------------------------> I don't have much on my line of Paynes, except that Wm. J. Payne was born in VA and was 50 years of age according to an 1850 Census, of District #97, Rush Co, IN, Sept. 11, 1850. He is also listed as a Farmer. (Wm. J. Payne is also listed in the IN 1860 Census, now aged 60, as having been born in VA.) Lavina, his wife, age 32, born PA. Their children are listed as: Edwin - 10 years. (IN 1860 Census it looks like the first name could be short for Edward.) Mary J (Jane, my 2nd great grandmother) - 7 years - she married White Brown Morris. Angelina or Angeline - 6 years Josephine - can't read age Alvin (?) - name, age & sex not clear. (However, in the 1860 Census of Rush Co., IN, it appears to be written as Alvin, but listed as a male - 10 years.) All of the children were born in IN. I did not find my William J. Payne in the Rush Co. 1870 Census, so unless he moved to another county, he must have passed away sometime during those 10 years. I did find his son, Alvin Payne, Farmer, age 20, born IN, listed in the Rushville Twp., Rush Co., July 30, 1870 Census living with Lavina, age 53, Keeping house, born in PA and her husband, Thomas Jemison, age 64, born KY. Also living with them is Anna Morris, age 12, at school, born IN. There is a connection between my Payne family and the Morris family because of the marriage of my Mary Jane Payne marrying White Brown Morris, so having an Anna Morris living with living with Lavina (Payne) Jemison doesn't seem uncommon to me. I do not know how she is related at this point. In the Rushville Twp., Rush Co., IN July 18, 1870 Census I found a Edward Payne, age 29, bank cashier and his wife, Fannie, age 21, occupation as Boarding. In the Aug. 26, 1850 Census of District #97, Rush Co., IN, there is a Thomas Payne, age 35, Farmer, born in VA. Also in the same 1850 Census and District there is a Mary Payne, age 53. Under her name there are: Robert - age 18 Burns (?) - age 16, male Sarah - 14 Jefferson - 11 In a very early census of Franklin Twp., IN (didn't realized that I didn't get the year printed, sorry) where they only list head of household, it shows a J. W.(or H.) Payne.

Searching for info regarding Henry PAYNE b. about 1760 m Rachel THOMPSON b.1766. They were married 12-17-1795 in Orange county NC they had 8 known children. John b.about 1795 Mary b.1796 m James Martin ARMSTRONG James b. 1797 Joseph b.1798 Jenny b.1800-1810 Elizabeth b. about 1809 Andrew b. 1813 Abigail b. 1820 It is thought they migrated to TN around 1810 as the last 4 children were born in TN and Henry died there in 1837 I would appreciate any info on this line.
