Hiram Holton Payne
Hiram Holton Payne was born in Mayfield, Graves County, Kentucky, March 11, 1860. He moved with his family to one mile south of Raymondville, Texas County, Missouri in 1880. Here he married Julia Catherine Mitchell, November 15, 1886. His father was Chauncey Smith Payne, Born August 19, 1819 In Newport, Campbell, Kentucky. He married Cynthia Florilla Chipman at Goshen, Elkhart County, Indiana on December 1, 1850. There were eight children born to this marriage. Chauncey died February 18, 1911, and was buried in Boone Creek Cemetery near Raymondville, Missouri.
In 1893, at the age of 34, Hiram walked from Raymondville to Oklahoma to stake a 160 acre claim in what was known at the Seminole River Reservation. He cut his logs and built a two room log house, which is still standing on a farm near Ripley, Oklahoma. Hiram had two sons, Crestus Holton and Virgil Lynn. Virgil was born July 27, 1893. Hiram, his wife Julia Catherine Mitchell Payne, and their two sons, moved to Oklahoma to settle their newly claimed homestead. Glass was expensive and very hard to get so Julia had to use oil cloth at the window openings. She was so thrilled when Hiram could go to the Hominy Post and get glass for the windows. Two years later, Hiram bought a farm with a nice house, which was Julia's pride and joy.
In 1917, Hiram came to Kay County and purchased a farm on the Little Beaver Creek. When Julia moved here in 1918, there were no trees around the white two story house. She brought cedars in tubs and set them out. The dirt roads became very muddy when it rained, making travel difficult. Hiram took pride in raising corn, alfalfa, hogs, and his registered Herford cattle. He was very fond of horses, also. His last mare, Old Babe, was a gate mare. It was her colt that kicked him and finally slowed him down at the age of nienety-one He was a hard worker and wanted everyone around him to work. Being hard of hearing, there were many times he would drive his car to town in first gear. He died Oct 9, 1955 at the age of 96.
