Cordelia Strong

Notes:

(Research):A biography of Hezekiah Strong indicated that their were five (5) children in the "parental family," whereas Benjamin Dwight lists only four sons. It appears the fifth child was daughter Cordelia, listed as a descendant by Robert Strong, the historian of the Strong Family Association of America.

Notes:

Benjamin Dwight notes that he was still living (in 1871) in Vesper, Onondaga County, New York. He had been in Vesper since 1814, previously living in Tully, also in Onondaga County. (Vol. I, p. 194).
