Hi Kay, I do know this much - the Stegalls of Strong migrated there from Union County, NC. Mr. Jesse Stegall married my parents in 1936. He was a preacher of the Church of Christ. There are two Stegall descendants that live in Strong, but doubt if they are interested - both in 80s. Will ask my mother about them, where buried, etc., and let you know.
