    Notes:

    The name of Isaac Runyan (Runyon) appeared on the Montgomery County Personal Property Tax List of 1782 along with two other individuals both named John Runyon. One of these was almost certainly Isaac's son, but the identity of the other remains undetermined.

    Within this context, there is evidence that John Runyon married Elizabeth Runner in Montgomery County in 1786.4 There is evidence that John Runyon married Elizabeth Runner in Montgomery County in 1786.4 This couple later settled in Pike County, Kentucky, and although it is probable that this was a son of Isaac, it is by no means certain. (Indeed, some researchers assert that Isaac's son, John, never married, but was a hunter and Indian scout on the Appalachian frontier.)
