Gilbert Rundel is listed in the 1810 census in Genessee County, New York. Amy Rundel is listed in the 1850 census in Carroll Township, Cambria County with her two sons Asept and Chaney. The 1850 census shows her sons were born in New York and she was born in Rhode Island. This is where Timothy Nicholls and Experience Bowen were married in 1764. There are baptism records for Timothy and Experience Nicoll's daughter Experience born in 1766 and son Timothy born in 1769 but not for any of their other children.
