Frederick Payne was born in England, probably in the county of Staffordshire. At one time he was a coal miner and had the permanent purple "freckles" that the coal dust left in his back and shoulders.
He married the widow of a fellow coal miner, Elizabeth Price, and immigrated to American around 1948 with his wife and Elizabeth's daughter Vera who had married an American airman stationed in England with the 8th Air Force during World War II.
Frederick lived with Elizabeth in a home at 141st and Dearborn in Riverdale, Illinois (a south suburb of Chicago) which was right next door to the house in which lived his step-daughter, now Vera Bare, her husband Duward, and their two children. He was the only maternal grandfather the children ever knew and they had a very warm and loving relationship.
After Elizabeth passed, Frederick married Gertrude and eventually moved to Tinley Park, Illinois, where he is buried.
