Joseph Payne was born during the Industrial Revolution in Birmingham, England in 1905. It was a time of great poverty. Britain had too many starving and orphaned children in crowded cities, and Canada had acres and acres of green fields and a need for farm workers. In 1915, Joe became one of 100,000 children sent to Canada and indentured to work on a farm until he was eighteen years of age.
