Mary, Do you have any info on Zachary Taylor Payne? This is my ggggrandfather. I am researching the Suttons, Payne, and Robinsons from Smith County. This info you have has been a big help. Teresa Is is Zachariah or Zachary? I've seen in both ways. I don't have alot Teresa and not sure how acurate it is. I have him as son of Benjamin Payne and Caron Cornwell and then most of the rest comes from census. Connie Crabtree Payne and children are here in 1900 census, if you don't have that. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tn/smith/census/1900/094-06a.gif 1900 Smith Co. 094-06A Payne Carrie head Aug 1852 47 wid 8 ch 6 liv Payne Charlie son Feb 1873?
