According to John P. Alderman, Thomas Payne fathered eleven children. Carroll Co. Va. 1850 census: annotated by John Perry Alderman. He said there eleven children before the census. There are but nine in the census book. According to my source, a Nancy Lyons came to live with Thomas and Sarah after Sarah became ill to help with taking care of Sarah and the children. Nancy became Thomas's common-in-law wife and born to them were two children. I have copies of William H. Lyons Marriage certificate dated August 27, 1870, Dobson, N.C listing his father as Thomas Payne and mother as Nancy Lyons. I also have a copy of a death certificate for a Josephine Lyons Bell Bonne Terre, Mo. dated Feb 9, 1932. When Josephine married Stephen Bell she listed her father as unknown and her mother as Nancy Lyons. On her death certificate her father is listed as Payne. Birthplace Carroll Co.Va. 1-9-1855.

Marshall 0248B - Gedcom from Larry Shelton.
Tuberculosis was very prevalent even in the early 1900's. Aunt Opal was ill
for many years before she passed away. I can remember vaguely my Mother
taking care of her and taking me with her. Her daughter Celia Faye and I were
the same age, approximately 4 years old, and she and I would play together.
My mother really grieved over the death of her sister and her two little girls. Times were so hard and "The Great Depression" made it impossible to locate them. I talk by telephone to Irene occasionally and she tells me how hard it was on her and Celia to be taken away from the people they loved after their mother died.

55. | Homer Jefferson HAWKS (24.Louisa3, 8.Rachel2, 1.Thomas1) was born on 19 May 1903 in Lambsburg, Carroll County, Virginia; died on 13 May 1982 in Mount Airy, Surry County, North Carolina. Notes:
Marshall 0248B - Gedcom from Larry Shelton.
Uncle Homer retired from the Mt. Airy Fire Dept. He then began restoring
old grandfather clocks. He traveled all around looking for these clocks. He would bring them home and completely restore them. My parents moved to High Point, N. C. in February 1944, which was the year I graduated from Mt. Airy High School. I wanted to stay in Mt. Airy and graduate with the friends I
had gone to school with for 12 years. It pleased me to no end when Uncle
Homer and Aunt Viola volunteered to let me stay with them the remaining months until I graduated. Aunt Viola was so good to me and I have so warm memories of her.
Uncle Homer was really the first person to talk to me about my ancestors and my heritage. Many times he would take me to Lambsburg, up Pipers Gap and show me what was left standing of Grandpa Jeff and Grandma Louisa's cabin on the curve-now called Pose Bobbits curve.
Many times he would take me to Mt. Carroll Methodist Church where my
Great-Grandfather Nathaniel and Great-grandmother Nancy Hanks Hawks were buried. We also visited Chestnut Grove Cemetery where many of our ancestors were buried. Something inside me kept wanting to know more and more. If not for responsibilities that had to be made primary, I think most of my waking hours would have been spent researching my history.
I was not aware of it, but my dear Mother was writing much about her life in Carroll County, recording her memories, and began to talk about it to me every opportunity we had. I am so grateful I had someone to really awaken in me what a great heritage I have.
