Percy Rivington Payne was born in England on March 8, 1820, to Anna Rivington and Thomas Pyne. He is a collateral descendant of James Rivington, famed Loyalist publisher in New York during the American Revolution.

Upon arriving in the United States, Pyne joined Moses Taylor & Co. as a clerk, becoming a partner in 1842.
