Yes, James middle name has been a topic of discrepancy with me and older family members for some time now. Originally we did have Osbourne as his middle name, but somewhere along the line of our research is got changed to Oscar. More reseach for me. Regardless of middle name I am sure that we are talking about the same James Payne. James O Payne m. Louiza/Louisa Fowler Nov 1845, she was b. in SC, D. 6 Feb 1929 Greeneville TN. James b. 5 Nov 1835 in Mecklenburg, NC, d 6 Jul 1915, Greene County, TN. I believe Louisa's fathers' given name is Franklin. However, I do not have any other info on him or his wife. Children born to James and Louisa are: Julia A., b. Apr 1860 John William, b Apr 1863 Mary Jane, b 1866 Serene (Rennie) Edie, b 1868 Daniel A, b 1871 William Alexander, b 1872 Lonnie, b 8 Jun 1874 and died 13 Dec 1965 Greene TN, buried in Cedar Creek Cemetery. Married to Docie Bell Shelton, they had 8 children one which was named Rose born 1897. Edith Caroline, b 1876 Humphrey M, b 1878 George W (V)?, b 1881 Alex Anderson, b 8 Jun 1882 (This is my grandfather, we called him Papa). His son Fred Douglas is my father. Louise Ethel L, b 1884 Wade, b 1885 James, father was Joseph, born abt 1803, married to Patsey Gardner Todd 6 Aug 1831 in Mecklenburg, NC, they had 2 sons, James O and William L. Patsey was 1st wife of Joseph, he married 2nd wife Martha Collins. Patsey's father William L Todd James brother, William married Serena Nelson in Green TN and later they moved with family to Arkansas, where they both are buried. They had 12 children. Loury, Mauk, Alice C, Henry, Ralph, Carl, Edith and Rose. Some children remained in TN and some went to AR. Sorry I don't have more ancestors to share, but I do have lots of aunts, uncles and cousins to share with you. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] We do have Seavers by marriage in our cousins family. Let's talk.

My name is Lesley Seaver. I just read that James O. Payne is your great grandfather! Well he is my great great grandfather. His son Lonnie Payne was my great grandfather. I think there is so discrepancy in James' middle name though. I thought it was Osbourne instead of Oscar. I can't seem to find anything on his parents, other than his father's name was Joseph. I can't find anything on Louisa Fowler, James' wife, either. If you have any information on them, I would love to hear it. I guess this makes you and I cousins!

I'm pretty sure his middle name is Osbourne and not Oscar. I am in the process of researching his family myself so I don't know what I can tell you that you might not already know. I know he did serve in the Civil War, but as a Union soldier, not Confederate. He was the grandfather of my grandmother who is Rose Payne Thorpe. She is almost 87 and lives in Greeneville still. From what I can tell, he and Louisa had a lot of children and both are buried in Cove Creek Cem. I also know his father is Joseph Payne but I can't seem to find out anything about his mother or his wife Louisa. If you have any additional information, I would love to hear.

I am looking for information on Annie Hughes Harris b. about 1883 d. 1944 in Hawkins Co., Tn. She married George W Harris. Any information on who her parents might be would greatly be appreicated. Thanks Frances
