I have been trying to trace, so far without any success, the parents, siblings and ancestors of Charles Rundle who I believe was born somewhere in Cornwall. I have a suspicion that he was an Excise man, which could explain why he was in Wiveliscombe, Somerset where he married Grace Govier on 27 Nov 1797. They had at least three children and the two sons Henry and William were quite definitely Excise men, hence my suspicion. Their sister Elizabeth married a John Pyke.

Any leads or hunches, however slight, will be very much appreciated.
