John Cheshire abt 1684 Elizabeth abt 1690

John Cheshire
Parents: Edward Cheshire and Margaret (unknown surname)
Born Abt 1684 Pontesbury, Shrop, England
Note:  did not find him in Pontesbury or Wingate.  I have been unable to find a real connection between John and the parents listed.  His birth date seems to fit nicely between Charles and Margaret, but that doesn't mean it's true.  I found all the other children's christening dates but his and that is suspicious.  I will keep looking and, for now, take the information as is from the past.  Another reason I have trouble with is the fact he didn't name any children after either parent.  Though not completely unheard of, it is unusual during this era.
UPDATE: 30 June 2019:  there is A LOT of confusion on Family Search - people have twisted this family all out of shape - somehow making John's father born after him, etc.  I will need to take a trip to FHL in SLC to straighten it out.

NOTE: On AF there are 3 different years for John's birth. The first year , 1733 is way off according to the birthdates of his siblings. The second was 1773, which puts him before the marriage of his parents.

Agatha Hatch, who submitted a Family Group Sheet, had a notation that James and Sarah's Banns were posted as James Nichols and Sarah Barringham. However, the surname for Sarah was extracted as Barrington, which could simply be a transcription error since ham and ton could feasbily look alike when hand-written. There are supposed to be family records in possession of Joseph R Payne that might clarify.

OBITUARY
Wm R Payne passed peacefully away after an illness of about a week. Mr. Payne came from England to this country in 1848, and, since 1850, he has been a resident of Kaysville and vicinity. He was widely known and very much respected.
Funeral services were held this morning at the Tabernacle in which quite a number of speakers expressed the goodwill they felt for Brother Payne...

An abridged Life-Sketch written by Joseph Richard Payne in 1935 My notes/corrections are in red.

William worked hard as a youth to help provide for his 11 siblings. 

He chose to be a landscape gardener

In England, he attended a number of the meetings that were held by the missionaries and he accepted the Gospel of Jesus Christ, acquiring a great desire to immigrate to America where he could associate with other LDS members.  He worked a few years of hard labor to save enough to come to America.  he set sail on the ship Swanton on 10 Apr 1843.  

He became seasick and was alone, so weak it was all he could do to put his head over the railing of his berth to throw up.  During this time, among the helpful hands that assisted those who were ill was a young girl that also happened to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  She kept a watchful eye on him.  He discovered other converts on board and joined them.  They reached New Orleans, then caught a boat that was headed up the Mississippi to get to Nauvoo.  Note:  this is very different from the story below (in her section) that is told from her point of view - where she was the one that was sick and upset with him because he was singing and happy.

During that boat trip, he fell in love with the young girl who had been on the Swanton.  The Prophet Joseph Smith married them.  Note:  it must have been a civil ceremony because, according to Temple Registers, it was Lorenzo Snow that sealed them. 

He bought a farm but this was during the time of persecution and William Payne became a bodyguard to the Prophet. Note:  I have not been able to verify whether this is true.  I would welcome any sourced input.

William and his family, after the martyrdom of the Prophet, left Nauvoo in 1846 and went to Council Bluffs where he stopped for a few years, made another home with the idea of continuing to Salt Lake in the future. Note:  There is a story that he was one of those who helped bury the body of the prophet and his brother, Hyrum.  I would like a source for this, but it is likely family legend.

They left on 5 Jul 1849 under the leadership of Redrik Allred.  Note:  His name was Redick  Newton Allred and it was not his company.  It was Allen Taylor's and William was not in this company.  I checked online to verify and he is not listed, nor is anyone else with the surname Payne.  

They used Ox-teams, a very slow journey and food became scarce.  They gathered roots, boiled raw hides, and ate buffalo.  Indians gave them grief.  They arrived in Salt Lake 13 Oct 1849. I have to question the date as in the databases it shows the Payne family traveling in 1850 with an unknown company.

Obituary for William Payne

When winter set in, food supply for their stock became critical; so William, along with Henry Wooley, and William B. Smith, were instructed to scout north along the shore of the lake and see if they could locate a place where they could winter the oxen.  They reached what is now Kaysville and there they found acres of tall grass, many willow patches that would provide shelter for their stock through the winter.  They returned to Salt Lake and spent the winter making preparations with whatever they could to return to Kaysville in spring.  There were few implements to be had since everything had to come from across the plains by ox teams. 

In the spring of 1850, they gathered up the ox, the few horses they had, and with the crude implements, began to till the soil.  Their farms were laid out in strips of 31 rods wide by varying lengths.  They knew they would have to irrigate in order to mature their crops so they had to dig ditches and canals.  They obtained logs from the nearby canyons to build their homes.

Things were difficult, but not impossible for the first years - then the crickets came; darkening the day with their large masses.  The gulls came in large numbers and helped destroy the pests.

For many years after, through hard work, William was able to clear willow, make roads, and help build a beautiful little country town which was named Kaysward.  In 1865, he had enough means to accept a call as a missionary to England and spent 2 years serving.
After his mission, his sons William, George, and Levi, took charge of the farm and William built a new home in Kaysward 3 miles from the farm.  He traveled back and forth to help with the farm.  As he got older, he became a beekeeper and took care of them for the rest of his life.

Life Notes

Catherine was the last of six children.  Her father died three weeks after she was born.  When she was 17 her mother died, leaving her a small fortune.  When she was 18, she sewed gold coins in her corset and set sail for America, on the ship Swanton from Liverpool, June 16, 1843.  Catherine was a lace maker by trade.

Obituary for Catherine 

Catherine was very seasick and spent most of the time in her cabin.  Although she never met William she wanted to put a hot potato in his mouth because she could hear him up on deck singing and being happy.  Note:  his above story was written in 1939 - nearly 50 years after William and Catherine were gone and contradicts hers.  

They landed in New Orleans.  After her marriage to William, her money bought a 20-acre farm and built a home.  Lorenzo Snow was with the group that she traveled with.  (Lorenzo sealed them in the Temple).  When they reached Nauvoo, the Prophet Joseph Smith met the boat and shook hands with her, and blessed her.  Two daughters were born to them in Nauvoo, Sarah Jane and Emma.

 In 1846, they left Nauvoo with the rest of the Saints.  Little Emma died on the way and was buried at Winter Quarters.  The family stayed in Council Bluffs, Iowa for three years, where another daughter, Mary Ann, was born.

From Davis County Clipper
8 June 1906, page 1,
she would die two days
after this article was printed.

They continued their journey west on July 5, 1849.  Note:  not so sure this date is true.  One thing is for sure.  It was not in Redick Allred's company. Their daughter Sarah's information claims the company is "Unknown"

Along the way, Catherine and Sarah Jane contracted smallpox.  She promised the Captain of the company, who wanted them to turn back, that they would stay behind the others and that no one would catch smallpox from them.  No one else got sick.  William walked back each night with food.  Both recovered.  They arrived in the Salt Lake Valley on October 13, 1849.  In the Spring of 1850, they settled in Kaysville.

Catherine worked in the Presidency of Relief Society as a district teacher.  She was always visiting the sick and afflicted and giving comfort to those in sorrow.  She did work in the Logan and Salt Lake Temples for her kindred dead.  She was the mother of eleven children, ten of whom grew to adulthood.

Brief Life Sketch  Written by Mrs. Laura Craig, July 11, 1944

Mary Ann Payne Harris was the daughter of William L. Payne and Catherine Nichols. Both her father and mother were converts to the church and met on the old ship Swanton, April 10, 1843, while immigrating from England to the United States of America. After the company arrived in Nauvoo and were walking along the banks of the Mississippi River William L. Payne came to Catherine Nichols and asked if he may walk by her side. It was love that attracted this splendid young man to this beautiful and talented young girl, who was an expert lacemaker. In June 1843 she became his wife and they were married by the Prophet Joseph Smith.

On numerous occasions, grandfather Payne was one of the Prophet's bodyguards, and grandmother worked in the Prophet's home. True to their industrious nature they tried to make a new home but they were persecuted and rivaled until the saints were finally driven here to the valleys of the Rocky Mountains in the fall of 1849. Grandfather and grandmother Payne were the parents of 3 children at this time. My mother Mary Ann Payne was born 10 Sept 1848, a babe in arms, and was carried across the plains.

The saints were taken into the homes of the earlier pioneers until the spring of 1850 when grandfather moved with his family north to what used to be called Kays-Ward. He took up about 30 acres of land southwest of Kays-Ward. Here they made their home and reared 10 children. One baby died before the saints were driven west.

Thomas and Mary Ann's headstone

Mary Ann had grown into a beautiful young woman and had inherited many of the talents of her mother. By candlelight she spun and wove many yards of fine materials, always spinning and weaving cloth to clothe the family with. She being one of the older of the children, she had to help her father in planting and harvesting of the crops. During this time she met and fell in love with Thomas E. Harris and they were married Jan 14, 1866, by Wilford Woodruff in the Endowment House in Salt Lake City. Mary Ann spun and wove the material and made the suit by hand that father wore when they were married. If I am correct their first home was near the old Wyneal Hill Pond. It was a small two-roomed house with dirt roof and dirt floors. Here their first 4 children were born. When the first baby was born, father laid enough boards down for mother’s bed to stand on. There was a severe rainstorm that came up and grandfather set up all night and kept pans on the bed to catch the rainwater that was leaking through the roof. Later they moved to a new location just east of the James Smith home on the north side of the road just before you cross the Bamberger track on the road to the Kaysville-Layton cemetery, and they made their home. Four more children were born to them here. Around 1882 they bought and moved to the Galvin Miles home of which part of it still stands. There they spent the remaining years of their lives. There 3 more children were born to this union. They raised their family to honorable men and women, who will always call them blessed, for the wonderful privileges they are receiving through the gospel plan.

She was an ardent church worker and encouraged her family to never fail the teachings of the gospel. She was a Relief Society teacher with sister Catherine Nalder until her health failed and she was unable to carry on any longer. Mother being frail most of her life spent many hours with her sewing, making clothes for her family of boys and girls, that they may be well-dressed. She was the mother of 11 children, 6 boys, and 5 girls all of which grew to men and womanhood and had large families of their own.

Note:  I previously listed Susan as Lizzie (thank you Tom Waldron for setting the record straight).  I remembered now why I listed her as Lizzie - it was because of the 1860 Census which listed Lizzie as 10 which reverted her birth date to 1850 in my mind and I made assumptions.  The 1850 census was taken in June 1850 - before Lizzie was ever born.

Salt Lake Tribune's version

Ogden newspaper
Standard-Examiners
version of his suicide

In case you can't read the article on the right:

Drinks Carbolic Acid, Ending Life

  "Gambling Losses and Drinking Said to Be Motive for Joseph Payne's Act"

  Ogden, Dec. 23--Swallowing the contents of a four-ounce bottle of carbolic acid, Joseph H. Payne, proprietor of the Commercial Club of Layton, staggered into the kitchen of his home, 2907 Grant Avenue, tonight and fell to the floor dead.

Payne's daughter, Mrs. James Maxwell, and a party of friends were in the parlor in the front of the house decorating a Christmas tree, when they heard Payne murmur: "Get a doctor."

Despondency from drinking and the loss of considerable money in Ogden gambling houses in the last two weeks are said to be the cause for Payne's act. 

Payne arrived at his home, shortly before midnight, intoxicated. He became abusive to members of his family, finally leaving the family circle to go to the kitchen. There he sat for several minutes alone.  When members of the family reached Payne, after hearing his request for a doctor, the empty bottle was found on the floor, and Payne's lips and face were burned by the acid. 

 Dr. Ezra C. Rich and Dr. R. Moran were called but could give no assistance.

 

Payne is said to have threatened to take his life several times before. He leaves a widow and three children, four sisters, and two brothers.

Legal Note:  the probate court document confirms he died on the 23rd, and his widow, Josephine, applied for his estate on the 24th.

Note: His wife was the informant on the death certificate

Note:  requested a pic of the headstone, but it was reported by a findagrave volunteer, who searched twice, there wasn't one in the plot specified.  Perhaps they couldn't afford it, or because he committed suicide.
