"Samuel Rundle at the age of thirty married Hannah Hardy on March 1st 1715. She was the daughter of Samuel Hardy and Rebecca (Furbust) Hardy. She was about 22 years old. There is conflicting information on Samuel2 Hardy's 1st (Rebecca Hobby) wife's death, 2nd m to Rebecca Furbust May 12, 1692, and birth of Hannah 3 Hardy on July 06, 1693 (see pg. 87 Noyes). Samuel Rundle's father died a few months prior to this marriage. Samuel and his wife had ten children, rearing nine of them to maturity while one died in infancy. They were in order of birth: Hannah, Rebecca, Samuel, Ezra, Nathaniel 1, Nathaniel 2, Amy, Rachel, Reuben, and Ann. All married. Some of them removed to the remote counties of Dutchess and Westchester, N.Y...
Samuel died July 06, 1761 at the age of 76 yrs. His wife, Hannah Hardy Rundle died Dec. 1768 at the age of 75 yrs. Their place of burial is unknown. They are probably buried in unmarked graves in the same cemetery as his parents. Descendants who have visited the old pioneer cemeteries of Greenwich state there are many old field stones placed about the cemetery to mark the various graves. Unfortunately, there are no cuttings on the stones to identify any of those persons buried there.

BIRTH:
1. The book "Stamford Town Records, Vol. 1, 1641-1723," transcribed and annotated by Paul R. Finch, NEHGS (Boston, 2011), p. 147: "p. 155 [1:123 (124)]: Hanah, daughter to Samll & Rebeckah Hardy, his first wife, born the 6 of July 1693."
The author also notes: "Since Samuel Hardy was married to two different women named Rebecca, namely, Rebecca Hobby, married on 18 Nov. 1686 (STR 1:101) and Rebecca Furbush, married on 12 May 1698 (STR 1:123), the clerk who entered the birth records of Samuel's children on this page distinguished the two by indicating which children were by his first wife, and which were by his second. Nevertheless, Huntington ("Stamford Registration," 40) recorded the marriage to Rebecca Furbush as occurring in 1693 (rather than 1698); by doing so, he incorrectly placed the birth of Hannah Hardy with Samuel's second wife."
