His father was born 6 July 1781, married first on 10 November 1807, and died 13 April 1859. His mother was born sometime before the date of her father’s 1791 will; she lived until at least 5 June 1826, the birth-date of her youngest child. They had twelve children. His father married second Margaret Elizabeth Ball on 19 November 1837.

His mother was one of twelve siblings; five sons and seven daughters. One of her sisters, Scythia (also spelled Sithey and Setha) wed his father’s brother, Presley Payne. [4417] His step-mother’s parents were Thomas Ball of Rappahannock County, born 1775, and Margaret Bowen of Fauquier County. [4418] His step-son’s father was William H.

Francis was third cousin to the George Payne who married Frances Stone, and from whom are decended eight of the other Paynes who were in Company H, as discussed at Alexander Dixon Payne’s entry. Francis Payne and George Payne both were great-great grandsons of immigrant John Payne, born 1615 in England. Thus, Marshall Payne was a distant cousin of many of the other Paynes who were in the Black Horse Cavalry.[4421] CSR: Captured 30 July 1863 Culpeper; Old Capitol Prison; Point Lookout Prison 8 March 1864; exchanged 17 January 1865. Additional Information: The “1850 census of Fq. Co. reports him as manager….” After this year, he moved to Stafford County. He is mentioned in records dating from 1855 through 1873 as having sold land several times in Stafford. By 1881 he was living at “Bellevue”. “Mr. Payne first rented “Bellevue” from Robert Scott and by his energy and industry accumulated sufficient means to buy it. It was formerly the home of Dr. Henry M. Clarkson.” “He served in the Confederate States Army.”[4422] Possibly he is the Marshall Payne on p. 406 of Paynes of Virginia,[4423] but he would have been age 40 in 1864. Reference says, though, that he served in the Confederate Army. Little old for cavalry, but, ? He is not Marshall K. Payne, brother of James Daniel Payne above, who would have been age 60 in 1866. Marshall Payne, 9th Va. Cav., Minor Payne and Berryman Payne, both of 4th Va. Cav., all buried in Orlean cemetery See[4424] No source abbreviations at top. Is register entry based on the listing in Stiles? Stiles used Baird as a source; could he have read 9th Va Cav as 4th? Could check Archives reels to verify. Lynn, please provide feedback.

CSR: Not listed in source used for Compiled Service Records. Additional Information: “He was known as Major Rice Payne.” He built the “home on Culpeper Street, called “Mecca”, long celebrated for its spacious and brilliant hospitality. It was completed and occupied early in 1861. “Following the First Battle of Manassas in this year, Mrs. Payne opened “Mecca” as a hospital for wounded Confederate officers, whom she nursed with the sole aid of her sister Virginia. … There is no doubt that her over- exertion and exhaustion incident to this service for the Confederacy contributed to her death. “Mr. Payne entered the Confederate Army 1 May 1861 and served with the Black Horse Troop until its return to Fauquier Springs. He was transferred to the Quartermaster Dept. as Captain and was promoted to Major therein 28 July 1862… “He was a man of unusual culture, gifted with a rare taste in literature, and with the art of refining and beautifying his environment. At the same time he was exceedingly modest, his aversion to speaking in public amounting almost to diffidence. Although he practiced law for forty years, he never made a speech before a jury.”[4438] In 1937, “Mecca” was the “home of Mrs. Carr and her sisters [daughters of Alexander Dixon Payne, BH].”[4439] [Check # why this man not on rosters.
