Dear Ira,
I happened on your site after seeing your Runyon listings on Ancestry, and I found it very interesting. My Runyon connection is through my mothers Todd side of the family. Because of the intermarraiges between the families, John Runyon and Sarah Wheaton are not only my 4th Great Grandparents, they are also my 4th cousins, 5 times removed! One of my cousins has Sarah Wheaton Runyon's bible in her possesion and I have attached an abstract file of same to this email. The spacings and word usage are copied exactly as they appear in the Bible, and all entries are original except for the last 5 lines listing deaths, which must have been listed by another relative at a later time.
I hope this may be of some help to you as it gives more precise dates of birth and deaths within that family. Thanks!
