============================================================= Regarding Samuel Strong and his Bridges neighbors in Oglethorpe County, Georgia, I had forgotten about the descendancy chart, posted below, by Johnny Strong, who is not a current subscriber to the Strong Mail List. I would be interested in seeing the documentation for the ancestry of Samuel Strong posted (or re-posted) on the Strong Mail List. There may already be some information in the archived messages. http://newsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl The ancestry of Samuel Strong should be of particular interest to the descendants of John Strong, Sr., of St. Martin's Parish, probably New Kent County, Virginia, as Samuel appears in proximity of descendants of John Strong over many years, in both Virginia and Georgia. Was this a mere coincidence? Maybe we need to get better acquainted with the Strongs of Kent County, England?! Martha F. B. Strong, can you help to educated us? Also, a search at Family Tree Maker's site, using Internet Family Finder, indicated that Glen Maxey has posted material about the Samuel Strong family, but the links to those pages were non-functional. Here is his address and phone number: Glen Maxey P. O. Box 2505 Austin, Texas 78768-2505 Telephone: 512-326-2816 Website: http://www.familytreemaker.com/m/a/x/Glen-Maxey E-Mail: [email protected] I hope that Glen Maxey will share whatever information he has about Samuel Strong, his ancestors, and his descendants with the Strong Mail List.
