Family/Surname note

This surname had many different spellings used in Colonial America, including Fitzrandle, Fittsrendolfe, or Fittsrandolfe^[24], with FitzRandolph or Fitz Randolph emerging as the most common.

Fitz Randolph is being recommended as the default to facilitate searches, though some families adopted specific variants, including FitzRandolph, which is being proposed for Isaac's family.

In Isaac FitzRandolph family, FitzRandolph is thought to have been used by all family members as their surname though no proof has been provided to support this belief.

Fitz Randolph genealogies usually use the Fitz Randolph default. Louise Aymar Christian and Howard Stelle Fitz Randolph (1950), and Oris H.F. Randolph (1976) assumed that Fitz Randolph was the family name when listing the children in both the family in which Isaac is a child and the one in which he is the father.
