      NOTE Headstone in Marlow Cemetery, Sect 10 Blk 9 (Lot 1), states b. 7-28-1859 d. 6-12-1956

      Charles Strong has a copy of the probated Will of Hattie A. (Brown) Payne from Stephens County, Oklahoma No. 3925.

      The petition for probate stated that Hattie had departed this life at Marlow, Stephens County, Oklahoma on or about 12 June 1956, and that she left a total estate of approximately $6,000.

      The names and places of residence of her heirs were as follows:

      Lee B. Payne, Son, 514 W. Gilkey, Marlow, Oklahoma Joe Payne, Son, 511 Broadway, Marlow, Oklahoma/2408 Lincoln, Fort Worth, Texas Bill Long, Grandson, 2408 Lincoln, Fort Worth, Texas Idell Pafford, Granddaughter, 1708 Oakland, Fort Worth, Texas Hattie Mildred Shaw, Granddaughter, 514 W. Gilkey, Marlow, Oklahoma Kay Denice Shaw, Greatgranddaughter, 514 W. Gilkey, Marlow, Oklahoma

      All heirs were of legal age.

      Jesse Adkins of Marlow was executor.

      Hattie had executed her will on 1 April 1952 in the presence of P.V. Rabb, Caroline S. Payne, and H.C. Payne.

      Hattie left each of the above listed heirs the sum of $10, and Lee B. Payne was to receive the residue of all money; furthermore, she left her China Closet and all the contents to Mildred Shaw, and her Piano to Kay Denice Shaw, leaving the remainder of her property, including furniture, jewelry, and all other money to her son Lee B. Payne, "with full knowledge of the help and peace of mind which his love, care and affection has provided for me during my life time."

      At the time of her death, Hattie was living at 514 West Gilkey, Marlow, Oklahoma. This was also the residence of one of her son's, Lee B. Payne. As the Will of Hattie Payne does not dispose of the home, it is not known if she was living with her son in his home, or if it was her home but had been transferred to Lee prior to her death. Also living in the home on West Gilkey with Hattie and Lee were Hattie Mildred Shaw, granddaughter, and Kay Denice Shaw, Great Granddaughter.

    PAYNE FAMILY REUNION - 1927 Home of Aunt Annie (O'Neill) Sparks - 303 Hickory, Duncan, Oklahoma
    This 1927 Payne Reunion photo is of 41 people. On September 21-23, 1999, Charles R. Strong along with his mother, Anna Laura "Rooney" (Payne) Strong and two aunts ? Dora Fay (Payne) Pierce-Yeager and Lois Marie (Payne) Hanna reviewed the picture. The late Lewis Adair Payne had already prepared his own list identifying all persons. Both list had errors. Mary Gwendolyn ?Marilynn? (Payne) Wade of Marlow later helped Charles Strong reconcile the two lists and correct some errors. One reason for differences in the two lists was due to the existence of two pictures, which were almost, but not exactly, identical. This photo slightly differs from Aunt Annie?s version.
