Generation: 1

  1. 1.  James Withers Payne was born on 26 Dec 1818 in Fauquier County, Virginia; died between 1868 and 1869 in Fauquier County, Virginia.

    Notes:

    "He was a farmer, and a soldier in the Confederate Army, and was known as James Wi Payne -- the Wi being a contraction of Withers. This practice of attaching a special surname to those Payne men in this community who possessed the same baptismal name extended through several generations and resulted in some picturesque combinations that would make up an interesting chapter." [The Paynes of Virginia, citation details below]

    James married Elizabeth Holtzclaw on 6 Aug 1841 in Fauquier County, Virginia. Elizabeth (daughter of Charles Holtzclaw and Clement Welch) was born in 1821; died after 1868. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    "Dr. Douglas A. Payne. Services for Dr. Douglas A. Payne, an ear, nose and throat surgeon in Chicago for nearly 60 years who died yesterday, will be held at 2 p.m. tomorrow in the chapel at 5107 North Clark street. Dr. Payne was 92 years old. A graduate of Johns Hopkins university, Dr. Payne was instructor for many years at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Chicago. He is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Veda Macdonald. His home was at 1058 Catalpa avenue." [Chicago Tribune, 25 Nov 1943, p. 39.

    Note that the statement that he was 92 years old at death is almost certainly an exaggeration; multiple records point to a birth year of 1857, making him 86 when he died.
