    Notes 
    • A veteran of the war of 1812. He moved with his family to Texas sometime before 1835 and settled on land originally granted by the Spanish in 1794 to Juan Ignacio Perfirmo. After Texas Independence, John became a judge and the first justice of the peace in Sabine County. In 1837, President Sam Houston came to San Augustine and in a speech lauded the Payne family for their support and participation in the Texas Revolution. Payne served as a representative to the Third Congress of the Republic and with two of his sons, served on a committee to draft a resolution for annexation that met on March 31, 1845. (San Augustine Tribune, Thursday, March 17, 2005, p 3)
