I am looking for all living or deceased descendants of Elisha Payne (Paine), born Dec 13, 1762 in Amenia, New York, and died February 4, 1843 in Hamilton, New York. Elisha was born as Elisha PAINE and died as Elisha PAYNE. Elisha married (1) MARY POLLY BROOKS September 17, 1787, daughter of SAMUEL BROOKS and RHODA BECKWITH. He married (2) ESTER DOUGLASS August 17, 1797 in Whitestown, New York, daughter of CALEB DOUGLASS and BETHIAH CHAPEL. There were 654 Elisha descendants indentified as of 2006.
