Connecticut; born: ca 1700 Greenwich, Fairfield Co., CT; parents: William Rundle I/Abigail Tyler; married after 1715/16 when 15 yrs of age to Hannah (Johannah?)

1) Hannah, m. Jonathan Palmer 12-06-1746
2) ?Thomas?, m. Eli zabeth Brown 07-17-1778
3) may have had other chdn
Very little is known about Isaac Rundle. There is no explanation as to why Isaac had a guardian appointed after the death of his father while his two younger brothers did not.
Could Thomas Randle who m Elizabeth Brown be a grandson of Isaac & Hannah named for Hannah's father, Thomas Close?
