This is going to be a longshot question - we have hit a brick wall with the STRONG family in England. Since Christmas when I found where Robert got married in 1813 Middlesex, we have been looking for names similar to those recorded within the family and the surrounding area. Two 'cousins' have found this family. The big question is; does any one have this family in their tree that would show who Alfred's father was and did his father have a brother call Robert, born about 1792. The 1881 census show the family as: Elizabeth A. STRONG Head M Female 36 Kensington, Middlesex, England Wife Of Plasterer Alfred STRONG Son U Male 15 Kensington, Middlesex, England Tobacco Pipe Maker Rosina STRONG Daur U Female 13 Kensington, Middlesex, England Scholar Wm.S. STRONG Son U Male 10 Shepherds Bush Kensington, Middlesex, England Scholar Albert STRONG Son U Male 7 Brimington Scholar Susanna STRONG Daur U Female 4 Brimington Scholar Fredk. STRONG Son U Male 1 Brimington The IGI & 1901 Census shows Marriage of Alfred Strong to Elizabeth Cridland 1865 St Decumans, Somerset. Alfred Strong born c1840 St Decumans, Somerset and Elizabeth Cridland Christened 1845 St Decumans, Somerset, England Children Rosina and Susannah Christening 3 Aug 1883 Brimington, Derby and 27 April 1883 Brimington, Derby. These other children were found on the 1901 census William Strong Age 29 born Kensington, Admin County Derbyshire, Civil Parish Brimington Occ Pipe Mouler. Albert Strong age 27 born Brimington Derbyshire, Admin County Derby, Civil Parish Whittington, Occ Contractor Iron Pipe Maker. Frederick Strong age 21 born Brimington, Admin County Derbyshire, Civil Parish Brimington Occ Pipe Moulder Alfred Strong (father) age 61 born Somerset Watchet, Admin County Somerset, Civil Parish St Decumans, Occ Cater for Timber Merchant. Many thanks for any help in chipping that brick wall down.

Does anyone have any pictures of the William Blackburn Strong family. Especially William, his wife, his son John D and Johns wife Priscilla Kash. I would be willing to pay for copies and postage. Thanks Ancyn

I just found a reference to an Elizabeth Strong that married John Hill at Boston in 1656. Does anyone have information on Elizabeth? She does not appear to be from the Elder John line. Which means that neither my husband nor my line come from him. Thanks Virginia Strong __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Hello Everyone. I have posted updated results for the DNA Study today, including two additional kits. See: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~donegalstrongs/dnaresults.htm There have been some changes in the commentary and insertion of additional notes. I continue to revise the groupings as we receive additional results. However, it seems clear that we have several different Haplotypes and differing roots for the surnames under study. The information being developed is in some instances helping to establish geographic origins. As additional test participants join the study we will be gaining insights as to the origins of various of the individuals in the groups as they develop. For elaboration on our findings to this point, please see the Interpretation of Results section of the webpage. We continue to need participants. Your help is appreciated! If you have any questions or comments, please let me know. Regards Dave Strong ...

Capt. Amos Strong, Jr. and Betsey Gordon had twin sons Henry and Harvey, b. April 30, 1792. They were living in Hebron, CT. According to the Dwight books (pg 834), Henry died on Jan 15, 1817. Where would I write to get proof of this? Any help will be appreciated. Colleen

On page 1011 of the Dwight books, Simeon Strong and Mary ("Polly") Castle had a son Phineas between 1756 and 1766. There is no further info on Phineas in the books. They were living in Salisbury, VT. Does anyone know any more about Phineas? Colleen

Searching for any info. on the family of Annie Louisa Strong b. 1867 who married Nathan Raw b. 2/8/1866. Believed to be in the north of England but not sure. Thanks Chris

Hi all,   I found this little snippet that got me thinking about the STRONG name and the DNA study and how important it is.   cheers, brenda ajmac@internet.co.nz Dunn ? 1864 England >U.S>Pa.(?) >OH. Surname was Dunn, but changed to Strong when came to U.S. around 1864 plug            Date: 2000/01/23 January Update to RootsWeb Surname List       New and Modified Surnames starting with D                  ===================================== 16 January 2000 Where are the addresses???  It's come to our attention that a commercial firm has been regularly sending unsolicited commercial messages to the addresses we list here, plugging their books. That's not the reason we were posting the addresses, and we feel we have no choice but to discontinue doing so. Great, huh?  So, how =do= you find the submitter?  It's not all that bad.  To obtain the address info for the submitter whose nametag is "emds" (just for example), there are two approaches. You can call it up via the web at the URL  http://rsl.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/rslsql.cgi?op=user&user=emds or you can send an e-mail to rsl-search@rootsweb.com with the subject line "address" (don't include the quotation marks) and "emds" (again, don't include the quotation marks!) in the body of the message, and you'll be sent the address info via e-mail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Debbie... Yep, it IS interesting! But, we need to test a male named Strong, Strang, Strange, Armstrong, etc. This is because we are testing the DNA on the Y-Chromosome, which is only carried by males. Females do not have the Y-Chromosome. The Y-Chromosome is passed from father to son thru many generations, with relatively little change... that is what helps us trace the family lineage involved. There are possibilities of mutation and the like which can make interpretation of results challenging... but we are learning a lot as we go. Please take a look at the DNA Study webpage, including the results page, and get back to me if we can sign up one or more of your Strong and Armstrong lines. Regards Dave Strong ...

Hmmmm...that's an interesting idea, especially as I have a daughter of a Yarnall and a Strong, who married an Armstrong.

Hello Everyone. I am forwarding below a copy of a message I just posted on the Armstrong-List. It is self-explanatory, but you will note I have invited participation by any interested Armstrong researchers. I have as a goal testing the hypothesis whether any of our Strong/Strang/Strange lineages are related to any Armstrongs. This might be particularily relevant for Strongs and Strangs who trace their lineages to the Borders region of Scotland and England. Regards Dave Strong ...

Hello Everyone! I've posted the latest update to the DNA Study Results page. See: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~donegalstrongs/dnaresults.htm There is only one additional set of PP3 results added this time. However, there is some additional discussion included in the interpretation of results portion which may be of interest to you. Questions and Comments are welcome! We expect more results from the lab shortly. We also have some participants who have not yet submitted their test samples to FTDNA for testing, and are hoping to see them returned soon. Some more participants are in the "pipeline" and will be welcome additions to the study. We are open at any time to new participants. If you or someone you know could participate in the project, let me know and we will do what we can to assist in signing them up. We are learning new things as a result of the study all the time. Your help is appreciated! Regards Dave Strong ...

Hello, Again! FTDNA caught me by surprise and posted two additional sets of results this morning! The two additional sets represent lines descending from the Elder John Strong of New England lineage and from the Edward Strong of Virginia lineage. The results are quite significant, and I urge you to revisit the discussion in the DNA Results webpage http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~donegalstrongs/dnaresults.htm regardless whether you may have already seen my earlier message of today.

Hi Everyone... Please visit the DNA Study Results webpage: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~donegalstrongs/dnaresults.htm We have one additional set of results which has been added to the "Southern" group. Also, I have made some changes to the spreadsheet presentation, and added further discussion regarding interpretation of results. I have also added links to some notes in collaboration with representatives of DNA participants researching those lines. If you have something to add, let me know. We continue to welcome new participants, and anticipate more results will be added to the presentation as time goes on. We have several cases where the DNA research is narrowing the research focus of the participants... and offering new avenues of research. Your participation and help in this project are greatly appreciated! Help Solve Some Puzzles! Join the DNA Study!
