| 2565 | We can presume that the first John Payne was of English descent, and we know that he appeared in old Somerset County and was living there by approximately 1715. Whether he immigrated there from England, New England, Virginia, or some other part of Maryland, or whether he was born there in circumstances humble enough to obscure even his birth, remains unknown. Many Paynes emigrated from England to America in the seventeenth century and at the beginning of the eighteenth. | PAYNE, John (I15435)

| 2567 | When a man becomes a Quaker he lays aside all pomp and glory, as well as pride of ancestry or achievement. However, our William must have been the descendant of well-to-do people, perhaps of the earlier landed gentry, as he came to these shores with considerable money for a Quaker. In 1650 George Gox and associates, the English converts to the Quaker religion were spreading propaganda all over the entire continent. This new form of religion was taking root in spite of the drastic opposition by the Church of England, not among the peasants classes especially, but also among the landed gentry. Wm Penn, son of a wealthy and distinguished father, became an ardent convert. Because of violent objection to this "Society of Friend" by the citizens in general resulting in persecution, Wm Penn conceived the idea of locating a large colony of Englis Quakers in the new country of America. He named the settlement Pennsylvania, not for himself, but for Penn's father; the old Admiral, at the King's request. Pennsylvania was the only Royal grant in America that was purchased with money. A large number of Smith's came into the colony from various localities, some as early as 1682. By 1700 there were almost as many Smiths in the woods of Pennsylvania as there were Indians and a William behind every tree, metaphorically speaking. William Smith seems to have been a surveyor. William came to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on the Ship "Welcome" Master Robert Greenway, from London, England. They arrived at upland Pennsylvania about the end of the 8th month 1682 with William Penn. According to the late C. Arthur Smith of Bucks County, Pennsylvania who spent over 60 years as a genealogist and historian for Bucks County and a descendant of this William Smith. "William Smith came to Pennsylvania as a servant of Phineas Pembleton and after freedom he purchased land in Wrightstown where he later married Agnes Crossdale d/o Thomas and Agnes (Hathornthwait) Crossdale that came to America on the "Lamb". William Smith was the son of William Smith and his wife Jane Wilberfoss who married Nov. 1, 1660 at Kingston Hall upon Hull, Yorkshire, England.

| 2575 | WILLIAM COMPTON OF IPSWICH It has been accepted by the Compton family genealogists that a son of the previous JOHN COMPTON of Roxbury and Boston, was that WILLIAM COMPTON, located at Ipswich, Mass., who bought land there of Daniel Ladd in 1662. (Savage, Vol. I, p. 439) (See N. E. Hist. Gen. Reg., Vol. VI, 1852, p. 248 and 346.) SALTER, (1890, p. XIX, of Gen. Rec.), where the author makes it appear that there were two William Comptons in New Jersey who were contemporaneous. This is not correct. WILLIAM COMPTON was in Gravesend, L. I., in 1656, (vide, ante, PART TWO, p. 162, and in Monmouth Co., a First Settler, 1667, (idem, p. 172.) He was called "planter," and as early as 1669 his name appears in the deed records relating to Woodbridge. (Arch., Vol. XXI, pp. 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 15.) The following entry of 1675, "Here begins the Rights of Land due according to the Concessions." (N. J. Arch., Vol. XXI, p. 18.) "William Compton and wife." This wife was Mary Wilmot, (1635-1713) (Nat. Soc. Daus. Amer. Col., Vol. I, p. 316) whom he m. in 1666. The dates of WILLIAM COMPTON, 1631-1709(?).

(Arch, Vol. XXI, pp. 215.) 1694 Oct. 1. Inventory of the estate; made by John Langstaff and Jabish Hendrick." (Arch., Vol. XXIII, p. 104.) From other deed and will records, the following children are certainly identified. I. Mary, born, the first white child in Woodbridge, Nov. 1667-8, who married, Jan. 1, 1695-6, Caleb Campbell. (Vide, ante, this PART, p. 515.) (Also, PART THREE, p. 373.) II. John, born Jan. 2, 1669. III. Sarah, born July 25, 1670; d. Sept. 16, 1670. IV. David, born, July 21 (26) 1671. V.

Levin Bishop - Columbia Missouri Herald, 21 Nov 1878, p3, col2: Aged Veterans - On Saturday last Gabriel Parker and Levin Bishop, two of the oldest men in our county, casually met in our office. Their histories, although unknown to each other previously, have been singularly alike. Both were born in Maryland; Mr Bishop in Worcester county on October 4, 1789; Mr Parker in Frederick county, on November 19, 1792. Mr Bishop is therefore 89 years old, and Mr Parker 86. Both afterwards removed to Kentucky - Mr Bishop to Bourbon county in 1811; Mr Parker to Fayette county in 1795. Both served in the war of 1812; Mr Bishop under Col. Boswell; Mr Parker under Col. Sirnrall; and both are now receiving pensions from the government. Both afterwards removed to Boone county, Missouri; Mr Bishop in 1830, Mr Parker in 1846; the latter having lived in Callaway county one year previous to coming to Boone. Both are small men - about the same weight and height; neither being over 5 feet 8 inches and neither weighing over 115 lbs. Both give promise of surviving several years yet; neither having much declined during the past few years. Mr Parker informs us that his grandfather lived to 115 years of age and his grandmother 105.
