note: "Laeuffer" aka "Lauffer" is German for "Runner", hence the name; Adam et al. probably americanized the name;
also, the 6 years between father Mathias (in most references) and son Adam, 1725 and 1731, resp., means they are probably brothers, not father/son..- jcw, 28.08.2011

Robert and Amos Runyan in RUNYON GENEALOGY 1955 listed that the name of John's wife was unknown but there was a tradition that her name was Betsy Raemer (spelling uncertain). Many published family trees list that name for John's wife.
The 1962 Supplement to RUNYON GENEALOGY by Robert Runyon states "John Runyan must have married in Montgomery County, Virginia, Where he was living, in or about 1786. The descendants of John Runyon say that his wife's name was Elizabeth." He further stated that the index for the records of Montgomery County, Virginia - Court Records 1776 -1799 list the name of Elizabeth Runyon (spelled Runion) , but the actual documents have not been found. This suggests that John's Wife was named Elizabeth. According to Robert Runyon, census records indicate that Elizabeth was a few years older than John.

Robert and Amos Runyan in RUNYON GENEALOGY 1955 listed that the name of John's wife was unknown but there was a tradition that her name was Betsy Raemer (spelling uncertain). Many published family trees list that name for John's wife.

The 1962 Supplement to RUNYON GENEALOGY by Robert Runyon states "John Runyan must have married in Montgomery County, Virginia, Where he was living, in or about 1786.

John was born in Maryland circa 1761 and died after 1840 at his son Adron's home in Pike County, Kentucky. Montgomery County Tax rolls list John and his father Isaac from 1782 - 1794, thereafter they moved to Wythe County for the years 1796 and 1797. John returned to Montgomery county by 1799. From 1800 - 1809 John was listed on tax rolls for Bluestone Creek, Virginia which became part of Tazewell County. John moved to Pond Creek, Floyd County, Kentucky circa 1820.

iii. HENRY RUNYON, b. 1788.
iv. CHARITY RUNYON, b. Abt. 1792.
Notes for CHARITY RUNYON:

Charity was an invalid, probably from birth. She is buried in the Pond Creek Baptist Church Cemetery.

As recorded in Pike County, Kentucky, Circuit Court Order Book Number 1, page 2, July Term, July 1822, an order was entered, which stated that Charity Runyon, daughter of John was 30 years of age and appointed John Runyon, her father, as a committee to care for Charity.

He was mentioned in a lawsuit in Wythe County Superior court Chancery Pleas and the following children were named:
- Adam,
- Jacob,
- Catherine who married Peter Smith and moved to KY,
- Elizabeth who married John Runyon,
- Margaret who married John Smith,
- Susannah who married Robert Curry (1792),

(Lawsuit Smith V Fugate, Wythe County Superior Court Chancery Pleas, Bk 5 beginning P 669,

(Mongomery County Deed Book A, P402)
Records indicate that he was definitely living in Wythe County Virginia in 1751 when his first child, Adam Runner, Jr. was born.

Adam Sr. and his wife (name unknown) had a total of eight children.
8 Children with ? ? Sex Birth Date/ Place Death Date/ Place
1 Adam Runner M 1751 Pulaski, Virginia Colony 1816 OCT 17 Rays Branch, Warren County KY.

3 Catherine Runner F Ky
4 Elizabeth M Runner F 1761 Maryland 1840 Pike County KY
5 Margaret Runner F
6 Susannah Runner F
7 Mary Runner F
8 Lovis Runner F

Some say he was born in Germany.
Some speculate that Adam Runner, Sr. was the son of a German immigrant, Gottlieb Lauffer, who came to the US in the early 1700s and settled in Maryland. ["Laeufer" means 'runner' in German (umlauted 'a') -jcw20160821]
Based on the information I have been able to locate to date, there is no record or other evidence that connects Adam Runner, Sr. to the Lauffer clan, which immigrated to America from the German State of Baden Wuertemberg.
