She may have lived with some of her other children between 1920 and 1936. Rosella Payton told Patricia Gail Payton Horton in a tape recorded interview and in a letter to Paul Payton states: "her grandmother, Eliza Payton, didn't have a home in later years. Instead, she would visit all her children and stay a few months in each one's home. We girls always hated to see her come because she would have to sleep with us. We were already 3 to a bed - you know, when one turned over, all had to turn".
