  • Notes 
    • Ruel's parentage has never been proven, but various reliable sources have placed him in this family group. (This needs more research to confirm.)

      During the Revolutionary War, Ruel served in Captain Daniel Jenkes's Company, as well as several short enlistments. He was at Warwick, able to bear arms, in the 1777 military census.

      He was also a private in Col. Elliott's Regiment in 1776, pay due 26 pounds, 11 shillings, 5 pence.

      The name is also spelled Reuel. It is a Bible name meaning "the shepherd" or "friend of God" or "God is his friend." (for more information see: http://www.reference-guides.com/isbe/R/REUEL/e )
