Notes for WILLIAM PAYNE JR.:

WILLIAM PAYNE Jr. was born 10 August 1692 in Westmoreland County, Virgina married Alicia Jones February 1712/13 in Richmond County, Virginia (1st. wife). The evidence as to the date of his birth exists in the following record In a Court Order Book in Westmoreland County---"26 August 1713 William Paine, son of William Paine, Gentleman, deceased being born the 10th day of August 1692 as appeared to the court to be so entered on the account book of the said William Paine, deceased, and which the Court verily believes to be his own hand writing, personally appeared in court and acknowledged a sale of land to Daniel McCarty, Esquire, and Alicia, wife of said William relinquished her right of dower." This deed was in exchange for land left to William Payne in his father's will, which bequeathed to him "the land I now live on, bounded from the outside fence next my quarter, where Footman lived, so to the mill which mill I give to my wife till said William comes to the age of 16, when he may use half the said land with the whole mill and half of my dwelling house; 2 negroes; one half the residue of my personal estate." William Payne, Jr. and his sister Anne were made joint executors of their father's will

The subject of this sketch lived on the S.S. and near the head of Machodoe River. In 1733 he and his wife Alicia of Truro Parish, Prince William County to George Turberville, stating that the land was that on which they formerly lived and that it was sold to them by Daniel McCarty. In this deed he is recorded as William Payne, Gentleman and Planter. He settled on the 700 acres that he inherited from his brother Edward, which was first in Stafford; in 1731 it was in Prince William County; in 1742 it was in Fairfax County. This estate was near what was later Payne's Church on the Colchester Road.
In and around 1744 he was Sheriff of Fairfax County. 1748 he and Edward Washington were Inspectors of tobacco warehouses at Occoquan and Pohick, Fairfax County, which houses were 7 miles apart by land and 14 by water. 1752 he and Daniel McCarty, son of the above mentioned Daniel, were Church Wardens of Truro Parish; a meeting of the Vestry took place during this year at the home of the Rector, Reverand Charles Green. 1755 he was listed as one of the free-holders in the county. 1756 he was Vestryman at Colchester, at the mouth of Occoquan Creek. 1763 he was on of the Vestrymen of Falls Church, among whom were George Washington, John West, Daniel McCarty, Etc. His services as Sheriff, Church Warden, Vestryman, etc., were not confined to the dates here given merely to indicate the general period of his incumbency.
His will dated 20 June 1769 (16 September 1776) names his sons in the order William, Edward, Sanford, and John, and mentions his wife and daughters, but not by name. His wife is to live on the plantation on which he now lives if she so chooses; otherwise, his son Edward is to possess it. Edward is named as sole executor, and is to have the care and education of testator's son John until the latter reaches the age of 18 or 21 as his guardian sees fit.

Notes for ALICIA JONES:

ALICIA JONES was daughter of Edward Jones of Richmond County, whose marriage to Alicia Lunn on 27 August 1679 is recorded in in South Farnham Parish Register. Edward Jones's will is dated 1715 (1715) and names his daughter Alicia Payne. He was a descendant of Robert Jones of Fleet's Bay, Northumberland County. It is from this Jones family that the names Edward and Sanford come down in this branch of the Payne family. While the births of some of Edward Jones's children are recorded in the above Register, Alicia's does not there appear; it is estimated that she was born about 1686. She died 31 October 1760 in Fairfax County.
