  • Notes 
    • Zilpha's name as well as her husband's came to my attention through a descendant, Diana Koch.

      In the Federal Census of 1880, Zilpha Payne is a widow aged 82, living on South Main Street in Woonsocket, RI. With her are Martha Payne 42 and Ellen Barnes 50, identified as her daughters. They are both dressmakers.

      Martha was appointed executrix of Zilpha's estate. Her will, which names her husband and four living children (and spouses), was witnessed by Thomas Steere, Arlon Mowry, and James I. Hotchkiss.

      Appointed by the Court to take inventory of Zilpha's estate were Arlon Mowry, James I. Hotchkiss, and Albert C. Smith.

      According to the obituary, Zilpha's funeral took place at her late residence, 146 South Main St., Woonsocket. Rev. C. J. White officiated; pallbearers were George C. Wilder, Thomas B. Staples, Amasa Arnold, and Arlon Mowry. (Arlon is a son of Barney Mowry, 1850 census; he has Mowry and Paine ancestry; see Rootsweb's Worldconnect.)
