[edit] Career

Claude Duval Payton was a tall, bearded supporting actor in many silent films and other films. He toured exclusively with a stock company headed by his 1st cousin, Corse Payton. By 1914, Claude was working at the Thanhouser film producing company in New Rochelle, New York, where he mainly played the roles of villains or lawmen in Western films. Although Claude Payton survived the transition from silent movies to films with sound, in 1935 he was mainly in minor supporting roles in films. Claude retired from the filmaking business in the mid 1940's.
