“By 1814 Phineas and Charity Runyon, Joseph and Jane Runyon, Emley and Lydia Runyon, Martin and Patience Runyon, and Marcy Runyon Badgett and her husband John had arrived at Pleasant Hill and were organizing into various Families. By the end of this period we see an example of the spiritual manifestations that were becoming more common within the village.” Nancy Runyon Reddy has recorded information from the Shaker journal entries and letters relating to the Runyon Family at Pleasant Hill - 1809 to 1913 on her web site. It makes for interesting reading. You can review the information she has compiled at www.homestead.com/reddys/shakerii.html

I am the great-great-great-great-great granddaughter of Phineas Runyon and Charity Coates. I live in Preble Co. Ohio and am presently working on Preble Co. First Family for the Runyans.
My great-grandparents, Robert Runyon and Mary E. Alloways (Alaways) divorced in the summer of 1899. This is the branch I am having the most difficulty with.
