William Strong(man) of North Hero, Grand Isle, Vermont From Rootsweb Strong-List email from Judy Mott Strong: "(while researching my MOTT family in Grand Isle Co, VT... I discovered some interesting info on William STRONG of North Hero): William Strong died in North Hero on Mar 30, 1836. He served in the Rev War in Capt Joseph Parker's Company in July 1776 to reinforce Ticonderoga. It was in reading his Rev War Pension files that I gathered the following information: William was born in Colerain, MA on Sept 26, 1749. He had no records to prove his birth. He served in Rev War in the NH Line. His father was one of the first settlers of Dublin, Cheshire Co, NH. William had at least one brother named Richard. William married Mary Caldwell in 1773 in Dublin, NH. Mary Caldwell died in the Fall of 1789. The location is not stated. William lived in North Hero, VT since about 1792, and had three surviving children: Jeanette Strong Brownson of North Hero, VT in 1832. David Strong of North Hero, VT in 1832 and of Platttsburg, Clinton Co, NY by Feb 1848. Mary (Polly) Strong Payne of Arcadia, Wayne Co, NY (living with her son in 1848). Besides living in NH, during his life William lived in MA, Cambridge, NY, Hebron, NY and North Hero, VT. William's brother Richard has a son also named Richard. Richard II gave testimony about his uncle for the Revolutionary War pension application. William had a very difficult time getting the pension granted. No record could be found of his serving in the Rev War. Then the nephew Richard finally realized why! IN ABOUT NOV 1789 THE WHOLE FAMILY DECIDED TO CHANGE THEIR NAME TO STRONG FROM STRONGMAN. William served in the war under the name William STRONGMAN. His father was Henry STRONGMAN, one of the first settlers of Dublin, NH. After correspondence with the Town Clerk of Dublin, it was confirmed that William enlisted and served under that name and that he did later move to North Hero, VT. Only after this 1847/48 information was compiled was the pension granted. William had died 12 years earlier and the funds were shared among his three children. This is NOT my family. I hope that this information may be useful to some Strong researcher. I did not copy the pension file, but would be more than glad to do so for anyone who has an interest. It is not very clear to read." Researcher: Email:Judy Mott Strong, Orange, CA | |

An exciting new avenue of research is opening. Advances in genetic techology have made it possible to persue a DNA Study which promises to help resolve whether the lineages discussed in this chapter are indeed related. The DNA Study will show whether the lineages have a "Most Recent Common Ancestor" and predict how many generations back from the test subjects the MRCA occured. Take a look at the LeStrange-Strange-Strang-Stronge-Strong DNA Study , and consider joining the project. Help resolve the puzzle whether the various lineages discussed in this chapter are related, and if so, the degree to which they are related!
