R. S. Payne is the son of William and Margarette (Brown) Payne, and was born October 12, 1823, in Davidson County, Tenn. The Payne family figured conspicuously in the early history of the United States. William Payne was in all the Indian wars, and also the war of 1812. The family is related to Robert Treet Payne, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. William Payne was born in North Carolina and immigrated to Tennessee when quite young. In 1821 or 1822 he was married to Miss Margarette Brown, of North Carolina, and to them were born six children: Greenwood, William, R. S., Melvina, Pattie and Priscilla. Mr. W. Payne was a farmer, devoting most of his time to this calling. He died at his residence in Sumner County in 1861, and his wife in the same county in the year 1850. R. S. Payne, our subject, is a farmer of Montgomery County, and, in the year 1853, was wedded to Miss Susan Gold, of this county, and to this union were born nine children, three of whom died; those living are Eugene, Earnest, Maud, Blanche, Ida and Anna. Mrs. Payne was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and died on January 30, 1871. When the war broke out with Mexico in 1846, he enlisted in Campbell's First Tennessee Regiment; was under Gen. Taylor, and participated in all the engagements of the war. During the late civil war he was appointed captain of the Home Guards, and was in the battles of Shiloh, Vicksburg, and Baton Rouge.. After the war he returned home and turned his attention to farming, which occupation he still follows. After the death of his first wife he was married again to Miss Narcissie Bryant, in the year 1876. To them were born two children, one of whom died in infancy, the other is named Robert. In 1882 Mr. Payne was elected justice of the peace, and this office he still holds. He has been school commissioner since the passage of the act. He and family are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church and are well respected.
