John Payne

Notes:

Lived in Richmond County, and often confused with his nephew John who also lived in Richmond after he came of age. John deeded land to his brother William in 1695, with no signature or acquiescence of a wife. Brooke Payne was not able to account for him after 1702. He speculated that it was possible he was the same John Payne that died in St. Anne's Par., Es. Co., 1711, leaving the widow Susannah. There is no evidence that the John Payne of Es. Co. left any children. (Payne, pp. 58, 59).
