FRED HURLBUT PAYNE.
Fred Hurlbut Payne descends from an old family of the colonial period. The founder of his family in America was Alpha Payne, whose son Stephen lived at Andover, Connecticut. Ebenezer Leach Payne, eldest son of Stephen Payne, was born in the village last named, and moved to Hinsdale, Massachusetts. He made an honorable military
497
LYCOMING COUNTY
record during the Revolutionary war. Stephen Payne, son of Ebenezer Leach Payne, was born in Hinsdale, Massachusetts, May 29, 1791, and died February 12, 1880, at North Tonawanda, New York. He married Ruth A. Smith, who was born May 20, 1791, and died January 22, 1845.
Stephen Lewis Payne was ever known as Lewis S. Payne, in which form he always signed his name. He was born January 21, 1819, at Riga, New York, son of Stephen and Ruth (Smith) Payne. He made a brilliant record during the Civil war. He aided in recruiting the One Hundredth Regiment New York Volunteers, in the spring of 1862, and was commissioned captain of Company D therein. The regiment was almost immediately ordered to the Peninsula, in Virginia, and took an active part in the arduous campaign under Major General George B. McClellan. It suffered very severely in the battle of Fair Oaks (or Seven Pines), where it was a part of Casey's division of Keyes's corps. The regiment was subsequently transferred to the army of Major Gen- eral Quincy A. Gilmore, engaged in the operations against Charleston, South Carolina, and served efficiently during the protracted siege of that noted stronghold. Captain Payne bore a distinguished part in these stirring times, and led a number of daring scouts and reconnaisances in Charleston Harbor, among his achievements being the burning of the Confederate steamer "Marrigault." General Vogdes, in his official report (Rebellion Records, series I, vol. xxviii, p. 352) mentions the valuable assistance rendered by Captain Payne "in. collecting valuable information as to the enemy's position," and recommended him "to the favorable consideration of the commanding general." Captain Payne was desperately wounded August 3, 1863, and in consequence fell into the hands of the enemy. He was held prisoner in the gaol at Columbia, South Carolina, and after a confinement of eighteen months, suffering

During his im- prisonment the recommendations of his superior officers (Generals Gil- more and Terry), based upon his gallant conduct on numerous occa- sions, had been favorably acted upon, and he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant-colonel, and subsequently received from the President the brevet rank of colonel. In the same year, peace having been restored and Colonel Payne honorably mustered out of the military service, he was elected county clerk of Niagara county, New York. In 1869 he was elected to the New York Assembly, and in 1874 to the State Sen- ate. He died April 11, 1898, at North Tonawanda, New York.
