Additional Information: W. W. Payne. Teacher. Warrenton.[3029] Listed as “W. W. Payne.”[3030] Two William Winter Paynes are listed in the same generation of the local Payne branch (Section A of Col. Payne’s book). The younger of the two, the son of William H. F. and therefore justifiably a “Junior”, was born in 1853. He was only age twelve at the war’s end in 1865, so it is unlikely that he served. The other, son of Alice (Dixon) and Richards Payne, was an older brother to A. D. Payne; he “taught school in Warrenton”, but never married or had children. No mention is made at this source of war service by either of these Williams.[3031] Need to verify identity of this “W. Payne, Jr.”, from V and K sources before move to Not Black Horse chapter. KEITH ARTICLE— John Scott Payne, W. W. Payne, J. W. Payne, J. F. Payne, D. J. Payne. Correspondent has not researched “W. Payne, Jr.”[3032]
