• Name	Edward Payne  [1, 2]
  Born	18 Nov 1726	Westmoreland County, Virginia   [1]
  Gender	Male
  Died	17 May 1806	Fayette County, Kentucky   [1]
  Notes	In 1755, on an expedition against the Shawnee Indians, Ensign Edward Payne marched with an outfit commanded by Capt. Lewis Elzey to Winchester. Members of the party had enlisted to serve 30 days. No relief arriving at the expiration of that period, some of the officers and enlisted men chose to leave. Among the group that left was Ensign Payne. Therefore a subsequent claim for compensation for this service was rejected. He later served as a Church Warden, Justice of Fairfax County, and Sheriff. In 1782 he was recorded in the Virginia Census as head of a family consisting of 8 whites and 26 blacks. Col. Edward Payne was a member of the Danville (Ky.) Convention on 23 May 1785. Kentucky was finally separated from Virginia in 1792 after seven such conventions. Edward was a member of the Kentucky Constitutional Convention and Senatorial elector for Fayette County.
