Descendants of Spencer Runyan

Submitted By: Tom Runyan


UPDATE: Benjamin Runyan (2) is an ancestor  and I have found an omission to this family.
My great-grandmother was one of Benjamin Runyan's daughters and the tree is missing another daughter, Ida. She moved at about nine years old, to New Mexico with her sister Alice Runyan Moses when her mother died.
She was born in about 1867 and died in 1954 on a ranch in Silver City New Mexico.  She married well known ranchers Agnes Campbell and Thomas Lyons.  She is chronicled in the book Triumph and Tragedy   by her daughter, Ida Foster Campbell in 2002.
