Birth*circa 1793 Samuel was born at Columbia Co., Georgia, circa 1793. 
 He was the son of William Isaac Payne and Mary Abigail Swint. 
Relocationbetween 1808 and 1815 Mary Abigail Swint, Samuel Payne, Daniel Payne, John Jackson Payne, William Isaac Payne Jr., Hannah Payne and Nancy Payne was an accompanying familiy member in the relocation of William Isaac Payne between 1808 and 1815 at Twiggs Co., Georgia. 
War of 1812*between 1813 and 1814 Samuel was reported in one genealogy to have been a major or colonel in the Army during the War of 1812. However, while he may have fought in it, it is unlikely he would have held such a high rank ar such an early age. 
Marriage*circa 1813 He married Elizabeth Stuart at Georgia circa 1813. 
Deed*Sep 1818 A deed was granted to them in Sep 1818 at Butler Co., Alabama.
(Records from the Cahaba Land Co. Receivers Office in Milledgeville, GA, (Book 300) show John and Samuel Payne of Twiggs Co. bought land at Sec 3, Tsp 10, Rng 14. At the same time William Payne from Twiggs Co., GA bought land in Butler Co., AL, Sec 26, Tsp 11, Rng 14.).1,2 
Relocation14 Jan 1819 "On the evening of the 14 Jan 1819, the peace of the happy forest of oaks was disburbed by a train of emigrants" and the Paynes were listed among the first settlers to arrive (in what was soon to become Butler Co., AL). In Ball's History of Clarke County, AL (pp. 330-331), there is the assertion that "William Isaac Payne and Mary Abigail Shouse [sic] (from Twiggs Co., GA) joined the Coleman Caravan in Dalton, GA in 1817 and moved west to Lowndes Co., AL." Actually, William Sr. died in Twiggs Co. in 1818, and the William cited must have been his son William Jr. who moved with his brothers and their Mother. Also, the 1817 date seems premature based on the date of death of William Sr in Twiggs Co.3
