I noticed in this book, from the same site ( http://members.aol.com/rarebk/booklists.html#old ) there is a chapter devoted in part to the Ayers family. Looks interesting, and also may contain Payne information. South Carolina Indians, Indian Traders, and other Ethnic Connections beginning in 1760. Genealogist and author Theresa Hicks, at age 70, has spent a lifetime researching South Carolina's white Indian connections, resulting in this massively detailed book which has won rave reviews from Southern historians and archivists. If your ancestors are from South Carolina and have possible Indian connections, you'll be interested in this book. A significant contribution is made through her research on Indian traders and their lives, and the 104 page index contains over 17,700 entries, the mass majority being individual names! (hardback, illustrated, 503 pages). Click to read the book's contents page and an example from the index.
