Jeremiah Payne & Letitia Orr 1836 Illinois
I am searching for family tree information on Jeremiah Payne and Letitia (Orr) Payne, both are buried in the Hampton cemetary, Hampton Illinois (Rock Island area). This is confirmed by a picture of the Head Stone. Family history/research has placed Jeremiah's birth place to be abt. Queens New York abt. 1812. Federal Census has yhe family consistantly living in the Quad Cities area (both Iowaand Illinois)His spouse is Letitia Orr, family history /research has her birth as being in Ellsworth Ohio Abt. 1816.
Some family history has Jeremiah being born in Ohio also, but there is no confirmation of this, the only reference there is to a Jeremiah Payne in Ohio is listed below.
There is reference to both Jeremiah and Saraha Payne associated with Pigeon Roost Indian Massacre in Ohio, it also references a possible Brother and his family. Conflicting accounts as to who was massacred.
The case is definetly cold on Jeremiah and Letitia (Orr) Payne, have been unable to research this family beyond Illinois and Iowa through Federal Census and Regional (Iowa/Illinois) government records. Any Help would be appriciated.
