    Notes:

    The Bible of Aaron Runyan married Abigail McMahan lists their children; and does not include a James H. or J.H. as a child, for some unexplained reason. The 1870 census for Sevier County has a James H. (MW age 13) in the H/H of A.A. Runyan (MW 48) and Abligil J. (FW 37). J.H. RUNYAN made his will on March 9, 1908 in Sevier County, mentions his sister Laura NICHOLS and her care during his bad health.

    Notes:

    "Descendants of Isaac Barefoot Runyan" & Supplement, by Marie Runyan Wright have Nancy S. died 15 Aug 1883 and married to Ashley Wynn. The Family Bible of Aaron and Abigail Runyan has Nancy Susannah born 12 Nov 1860, and N.S. married on 13 Oct 1881, and Nancy S. Henderson died 15 Aug 1888. Original papers of Aaron Runyan, regarding giving equal amounts to his children, mentions both a N.S. Henderson and a S.A. Henderson. This paper and the Bible record are in agreement. The published Runyan book appears to be in error for Nancy S. married to Ashley Wynn.
