John Willett Payne

John Willett Payne (23 April 1752 – 17 November 1803) was an officer of the Royal Navy who also served as a close friend, advisor and courtier to Prince George before and during his first regency. Payne was notorious as a rake and scoundrel, but was also a Member of Parliament and noted for his bravery in several military actions during the American Revolutionary War and the French Revolutionary Wars. Out of favour in his later years, Payne was reconciled with the Prince in 1799, but died whilst still in the service aged 51, from an illness which developed during blockade operations in the Western Approaches.
==Early career==
Payne was born in 1752, son of Ralph Payne, Chief Justice of St Kitts and his wife Margaret ''née'' Gallaway. His elder brother Ralph Payne would later become Baron Lavington. Payne was educated at Dr. Bracken's Academy in Greenwich and later attended the Royal Naval Academy at Portsmouth to train as an officer. During this time he became friends with Hugh Seymour Conway, with whom he had a lifelong friendship and close naval partnership. In 1769 he left the academy to join HMS ''Quebec''.〔
''Quebec'' served in the West Indies but after only a few months Payne moved to the ship of the line HMS ''Montagu'' before returning to Britain in 1773 aboard the sloop HMS ''Falcon''. Payne briefly joined HMS ''Egmont'' but soon was attached to the large frigate HMS ''Rainbow'' for a cruise to the Guinea Coast. In 1775 he was back in England, where he passed for lieutenant aboard ''Egmont''.〔
