Excerpt from "The Paynes of Virginia"; https://archive.org/details/paynesofvirginia00payn/page/226/mode/2up pages 222-224

Mrs. Elizabeth (Pope) Payne-McCarty was the oldest daughter of Col. Humphrey Pope of We. and w. Elizabeth, dau. of Richard Hawkins. Col. Pope d. 1684. Beside the four children named above he had Jemima, who m. Nicholas Minor. Col. Pope’s widow m(ii) Richard Youell < 1687; she m(iii) Patrick Muckleroy < 1691.

Her will dated 1717 (1718) We. Co. left bequests to the daus. of her son Lawrence Pope and w. Jemima, and to the children of her son Harmon Youell and w. Dinah. Capt. Daniel McCarty was son of Dennis McCarty of Ri. Co. and w. Elizabeth Billington. He m(i) Mrs. William Payne 19 Oct 1699; Mrs. Ann Fitzhugh, widow of William Fitzhugh, and dau. of Richard Lee and w. Lettice Corbin. Capt. McCarty d. 4 May 1724 at age of 45, leaving a will naming his children by both marriages and his step-son William Payne. (H-86) His son Dennis m. 1724 Sarah Ball, whose brother George Ball, son of Capt. William Ball of Lc., m. 1735 Judith, dau. of William Payne of Lc. (D-IV-i).

Capt. Daniel McCarty was a sheriff, Justice, Burgess, and Speaker of the House of Burgesses 1715. He was buried in Yeocomico Churchyard; his grave is marked. His epitaph reads in part — “He was endowed with many virtues and good qualifications, but the actions proceeding from them bespeak their praise.” Mrs. Payne-McCarty’s tomb is alongside. Her gravestone was discovered 1907 beneath the tomb of Capt. McCarty while the latter was being repaired. It is badly defaced and broken. I have attempted to supply the lacunae as follows, the parts in parentheses being mine — “(Here liet)h the body of Elizabeth (daught)er of Humphrey Pope, Gentleman, by (Elizabeth) his wife, first the wife of (William Pay)ne, Gentleman, to whom sh(e bore two sons and two daughters, and lasttly of Daniel McCarty, Esq., to (whom she) was married 19th October (1699 and b)ore four sons and four daugh(ters). She was born - of June 1667.” I think she d. 1716.

By his m(i) Mr. Payne had 1 child — Anne ; By his m(ii) [Elizabeth Pope] he had 4 children — William (2), Edward (3), Elizabeth (4), and Mary (5).
