There is a website for the Strong Family of America which has substantial information about the descendants of John STRONG. The site is www.strongfamilyofamerica.org. There are people in that organization who have done a lot of research on the Strong family and they will probably be able to assist you. Thomas FORD came to this country on The Mary & John in 1630. A great deal has been published about that ship and its passengers. ----- Original Message ----- From: "RJTHODEN" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 11:49 AM Subject: [Ford] Abigail Ford b 1619 Bridgport, England > Seeking information on ancestry and descendants of Abigail FORD > born 8 Oct 1619 Bridgport, England; married 5 Dec 1630 as 2nd wife to > John STRONG; died 6 Jul 1688 Windsor, CT.
