• Notes

  BIOGRAPHY: From "The Heritage of Alexander County North Carolina": On April 16, 1783 Robert and Rachel Lord Paine sold their property in Spotsylvania County. Robert Paine and his family lived in Culpeper County, VA from 1783 to 1789 when they moved to North Carolina. In North Carolina they first settled in LIncoln County and then on to Burke County where Robert Paine took up land on the Catawba River between Upper and Middle Little River in what is now Alexander County, NC. From John C. Payne and Alice Brownlee Frix Booth. BIOGRAPHY: From Rick Reid: " Robert Payne is shown along with George and Thomas, 1800 Burke County, NC Census. Robert lists 1 female 10 to 16 yrs old and 4 females 16 to 26 yrs old, 1 male 45+, and 2 males 0-10 yrs old." 1783 Spotsylvania County Records has shown Robert with 2 slaves and his brother Barnet with 5 slaves. Sold the interest in his father's estate, April 16, 1783. Robert and family lived in Culpepper County, VA from 1783-1789. About March 1789 moved to Lincoln County, NC and then to Burke County, NC on Little River, now in Alexander County, NC. The following is from "Imperfect Essay on the Paine Family" by Rev. Smith Ferguson Paine (S.F. Paine died on August 30, 1932 in Sevier County, Tennessee at the age of 95.) From Rick Reid.: "Grandfather Robert B. Paine lived in Virginia until after the close of the Revolutionary War. He then moved to Burke County, NC (now Alexander County, NC) and settled on the upper Little River in March of 1789. He died there not too many years later." " Robert B. Paine served three enlistments in the Revolutionary War. He was in the trenches under the command of Lafayette when Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown." " My Grandfather, Robert B. Paine, was a Virginian. His wife, Rachel Lord, was also a Virginian. To them was born a large family of 3 sons and 7 daughters." BIOGRAPHY: From Christopher Lane McNabb: Virginia County Records, Spotsylvania County, 1721-1800, Deeds Book J 1774-1782 "April 16, 1783. Robert Payne and Rachel, his wife, of Spots. Co. to Robert Coleman of same co. Ð50 curr. 100 a. in Spots. Co., devised by Jno. Payne, decd., to be divided between sd. Robt. Payne and his brother, Barnet Payne, etc., etc. Witnesses, Micajah Poole, Jos. Hewell, Barnet x Payne. April 17, 1783." Note: Several sources list two daughters with similar names and entirely different family lines descending from each. One is Catherine and the other is Katie. Katie is a derivative of the name Catherine, commonly the name used by the immediate family (and the names commonly used in my family). I would suspect that one of the two Catherines descends from different parents. I have no documentation for either one, though, other than that received from my cousins, one of whom is listed above (Rick Reid), indicating as stated in a direct source quote from Reverend Smith Ferguson Paine.
