Michael: I did not find a marriage for James/Joseph Runkle and Margaret Sellers. I looked in Rockingham Co. VA. Marriages 1778-1850 by Vogt & Kethley There are several Sellers, Sellars, Runkel, Runkle, but none with the given names you requested. Sorry, Jan in FL.
I haven't found it either in the abbreviated version of the marriage records that I have. As I understand it, Rockingham County Guardian Bonds lists bonds on February 17, 1834, for three of Joseph Sellers' children: William, Addison, and Margaret. Henry Conrad named as guardian and bondsman was Charles L. Yancey. With that in mind, I'm now beginning to wonder if Margaret's marriage was as a Marriage Bond and for some reason is not in Vogt & Kethley's transcribed marriages. I've run into that scenario quite a few times now in Augusta County, ie, Marriage Bonds being located that were not transcribed in published Marriage Records, and wonder now if that's the case with Margaret and her marriage to James/Joseph Runkle. If anyone has any idea(s) about how to now go about finding this marriage, please let me know. In any case, Jan, I greatly appreciate your time and the lookup attempt.
