During the mid-19th century, coffins were built with a drawstring bell to serve as an alarm in case one had the misfortune of being buried alive. It is believed that several such coffins reside in Tacoma's cemeteries. Fortunately, there are no reports of bells ringing in the middle of the night. Tacoma has numerous Victorian cemeteries that house renowned pioneers, like Thea Foss, Angelo Fawcett, and Brig. Gen. John W. Sprague, a hero of the Civil War who cofounded Tacoma and served as the city's first mayor. Several cemeteries are dying to tell their story and have not seen a visitor in over a century. Some have been abandoned completely, while others have been relocated numerous times. A number of graves that should have been moved are still in their original places. Tacoma residents will be astonished to learn the whereabouts of several unmarked graves, including some located along a very familiar piece of highway.

William Rundle, Sr., may have been the son of John Randoll and Ann Goldstone, whose son William was born in 1646, in England. William Rundle arrived in America before 1667, settling in Long Island. He married Hannah Edwards, a daughter of William Edwards and Anna Cole, in 1670. She died before 1674, and in 1675 he married Abigail Mills, a daughter of Samuel Mills and Susannah Palmer. They had eight children; the first may have been the son of Hannah. Descendants live throughout the United States.
