You're right that it was Isaiah rather than Isaac. I looked at the census records, which was really hard to read and it said "Isaah". > > > In the past I have proposed that Noah Strong was likely the same person > as N. F.

This is really going to be interesting to follow through on. The nearest really good genealogical library is at Western Reserve Historical Society Library in Cleveland, but we're hoping to get up there next weekend. I can really focus on Isaiah, and also on Noah. Fountain was listed in the History of DeKalb County as being one of the "early settlers", meaning between 1844 and 1847, but there's no other information on him. So I'll try to find a census record on him also. > After having retrieved your inital post to the Strong Mail List, giving > a brief outline of your Strong ancestry, I went back to the Isaiah Strong > database and found you and your family listed.
