Osborne of Bristol and a sister of Frank Osborne. Bertha was the mother of seven children. Fred m. (2) Mary A Bowyer of Farmington Mar. 12, 1910. Mary was the dau. of Arthur and Rosetta M. Fitchet Bowyer."

HISTORICAL COLLECTION OF BRISTOL TOWNSHIP, Bristolville Ohio, Thomas J. Kochur, 1989. (p. 210).

Alberta's death in 1906 was probably as a result of childbirth, daughter Mary Alberta being born just 9 days prior to her mothers death. It was obviously devasting to the family. Fred or his youngest daughters have not yet been located 1910 or 1920 census index. The older children appear to have scattered. Robert S. Strong, the SFAA Historian, indicates that Fred left the family after the children were born.

At the time of the 1910 census, 22 year-old Anna and 9 year-old Grace were living with their grandparents, Harmon and Ann Osborne, in Bristol. Daughters Mabel, age 21, and Belle, age 19, were living with their Aunt Alice Strong CUTTING in the fourth ward of Youngstown. Harmon, age 16, was listed as a "hired man" in the home of Cass MILLS in Farmington Township, Trumbull County. Harry, age 14, was listed as a "boy to raise" in the home of Wallace BOLES in Southington Township, Trumbull County.

Fred and Alberta are buried in the Evergreen Cemetery, Bristol.

BABES LEFT MOTHERLESS --------------------------------------------- DEATH OF MRS. FRED STRONG ---------------------------------------------------- Large Family of Children Will Be Without a Mother's Care Just at the Time It Is Most Needed--Interment in Bristolville. ----------------------------------------------------

Mrs. Frederick Strong, a respected resident of the West End, died at her home, No. 19 Furnace Street, Thursday night from convulsions. The case is particularly sad on account of the fact that, in addition to a new born babe, seven children are left without a mother's care at just the time when it is most needed.

Mrs. Strong was Mis Birdie Osborne, a daughter of Harmon Osborne, a pioneer farmer of Farmington. She was about 40 years of age. After her marriage to Frederick Strong, she moved to Youngstown and among her friends and acquaintances was regarded as a most worthy woman. She is survived by her husband, father and mother and the following children: Anna, Mabel, Belle, Herman, Grace, Gladys, and the baby, scarcely a week old.

Funeral services will be held at the home Saturday morning at 9:30 o'clock after which the body will be taken on th 10:45 Pennsylvania train to Bristolville for interment

Notes:

"a farmer in Bristolville, O., m. Betsey KAGY." (Dwight, p 194).

There was not a David Strong listed as paying personal property taxes in Trumbull from 1822-1834. A William STRONG was on this list, beginning in 1829, but his relationship to David is not known.

William, born ca 1790 in Massachussetts, is listed on the 1850 Trumbull County census. He is married to a Polly, born ca 1905 in Ohio, and they are the parents of Eliza (20), Electa (18), James (16), Tyrza Ann (8), Allen (7), and Milo (4), all born in Ohio.

David B. Strong registered a Cattle Marking June 25, 1841: Crop of right ear and hole in same.

On an 1841 plat of Bristol, David Strong's land was adjacent to land owned by the KAGY, ECKSTINE, and MAYHEW families. He appears to have owned the same plat of land from 1841 through 1890. On the 1900 plat of Bristol, it appears that this land had been transferred to Austin E. ULRICH.

Jan 1, 1846, indenture of apprenticeship between John REEL, David B. STRONG and Leah CLAY, age 9. John REEL, guardian of Leah CLAY, does bind Leah CLAY unto David B. STRONG until she reaches the age of 18, to learn the trade of housekeeping. Upon expiration of apprenticeship, David will provide Leah CLAY with a new bible, at least two suits of common wearing apparel, one cow, one bed, and one spinning wheel. (Historical Collections of Bristol Township, Bristolville, Ohio Thomas J. Kachur 1989, p. 72, xerox copies provided by the Trumbull County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society).


David's first wife, Betsy, died on June 15, 1851

David Strong married Leanora A. Sherman one month after Betsy died, on July 15, 1851 in Ashtabula County. The fact that he had four small motherless children at home was likely the reason for the brief courtship.

By the time of the 1870 census, David's three oldest boys had moved away from home. Daughter Ella had died. Ralph, who would have only been around 12 years old, was working on the farm of his Uncle Hezekiah B. Strong in Nebraska, and since 11 year old Charles had not been listed on the 1860 census, he most likely was only age 9 or 10.

David and Leanora were divorced after the 1870 census, but remarried prior to the census of 1880.

David and Leanora died within weeks of each other in early 1894, as can be seen from the brief obituary below from the "Historical Collections of Bristol Township, Bristolville, Ohio" by Thomas J. Kachur, 1989, p. 209, xerox copies provided by the Trumbull County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society:

STRONG, David B., m. Mrs. Leanora A. (Sherman) STRONG Mar 16, 1876. Leanora was the step-mother of H.A. Strong of Warren. David d. Mar. 30, 1894, and she d. Apr 8, 1894.

OBITUARY WESTERN RESERVE DEMOCRAT, APRIL 6, 1894, PAGE 8, COLUMN 2 OAKFIELD

David Strong, an old pioneer of Bristol, died at his home, Friday, March 30. Funeral services were held Sunday. The relatives of the deceased desire, through the columns of the DEMOCRAT to extend their earnest thanks to the friends and neighbors who so kindly leant their assistance during Mr. Strong's sickness and death. The choir has their special gratitude for their part rendered in the funeral service. (Courtesy of William Billig).

The Strong Estates were probated in Trumbull County, Ohio (Estates no. 1060 and 1065).

David's personal goods and chattel were appraised on April 17, 1894, and determined to be worth $96.20. His estate consisted of 1 Bay Mare, 1 Bay Colt, 1 Buggy, 1 Cow, 18 Chickens, Wood, 1 old sleigh and wagon, 1 set of old bobbs, contents of blacksmith shop, a tool chest with tools, household furniture and potatoes. When these items were sold, $127.06 was raised. $59 was used to pay A.E. Miner for David's Casket and Burial Robe, with the balance being used to pay debts incurred in settling the estate.

Rhodene Frederick also found a reference to the probate proceedings in 1892 in nearby Geauga County for a David B. Strong. Copies of these records indicate this was another David B. Strong, a resident of Huntsburgh Township, and husband of Dorcas Strong. Their children were listed as Mrs. Mary E. Johnson and Ms.? S. Johnson.

David married Leanora Arline Sherman on 15 Jul 1851 in Jefferson Township, Ashtabula County, Ohio. Leanora (daughter of Albert A. Sherman and Sarah Richmond) was born on 18 Jul 1832 in Ohio; died on 8 Apr 1894 in Bristol Township, Trumbull County, Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Leonora died eight days after her husband. Her step-son, Henry, was executor of her estate. He had also been the executor of his father's estate. Her assets at the time of her death consisted solely of land and hay. The estate received $252 for the sale of these, and after paying the administration expenses, along with $59 for a casket and burial robe, the balance of $184 was allocated ratably to her surviving children: Fred, Frank, Ralph, Charles and Alice (Cutting).

The following obituary is courtesy of William Billig,

WESTERN RESERVE DEMOCRAT

Mrs. Arline Strong, step-mother of Mr. H.A. Strong of this city, died at the family home in Bristol Sunday forenoon. The funeral services were held Tuesday at 11 o'clock and the remains buried in the Bristol cemetery. Deceased was the widow of David B. Strong who died March 30, and her illness dated from his death. She was 64 years of age.

Notes:

Rhodene Frederick examined a 3 vol. set of books by John Harris Sherman, THE SHERMAN DIRECTORY. This series had over 25,000 Shermans listed, mainly extracted from the 1850 census. This was donated to the Clayton Library in Houston by Art Cohan. In this book, she found the following entry:

Leonora A. Sherman born Jul. 18, 1832 prob. Ohio. Daughter of Albert A. Sherman. Married D. B. Storey (sic) Jan 4, 1851

Rhodene ALSO found this record of marriage in Ashtabula, Ohio records at the Clayton:

Leonora A. Sherman to David B. Strong Jul 15, 1851

Although it appeared that the January 4, marriage to D.B. Storey was most likely a transcription error, I wrote the Ashtabula County Common Pleas Court, Probate Division, in Jefferson Ohio, and asked them to check their records for marriage licenses for Leanora Sherman for BOTH of the above dates. They sent a copy of the only marriage record on file, that of David B. Strong to Leonora A. Sherman, which was dated July 15, 1851. In her cover letter, written March 21, 2005, Candace Baker, Deputy Clerk, responded that "There was not another marriage record for Leonora for Jan. 1851. I think possibly that they thought the name Strong was Storey, as the writing was hard to decipher."

David and Leanora appeared to have renewed their vows twenty five years later, this time in Trumbull County. Interestingly enough, they chose to do this on the 35th anniversary of David's marriage to his first wife, Betsey Kagey.

STRONG, David B to STRONG, Leanora A (Mrs) of Bristol m 16 Mar 1876 by James Brown MG (L 1871-76 p 573) (7/393)

From 100 YEAR OF TRUMBULL COUNTY, OHIO, MARRIAGES 1800-1900 Courtesy of the Trumbull County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society

The same wedding date, March 16, 1876, is found in the "Historical Collections of Bristol Township, Bristolville, Ohio" by Thomas J. Kachur, 1989, p. 209.

The actual certificate documenting this was included in the probate files of the estate of David and Leanora Strong in Trumbull County.

An article in the "Trumbull County (Ohio) Independent" dated March 24, 1876 explained the reason for this remarriage: "The following divorce case, I believe, was the only successful one during the present term of court. Mrs. L. Strong vs. David B. Strong for divorce, on the ground of neglect of duty, etc. Divorce was granted. But now comes a singular turn in the case. Mr. Gillmer defended the husband with such vigor, and showed by such irrefutable arguments that these parties should not be separated, that, although the judge's sympathies for the woman could not be overcome, the parties themselves experienced a very great revival of earlier sympathies. In such a masterly manner did defendant's counsel portray the manly qualities of Mr. Strong, that the quick and appreciative nature of the petitioner (Leanora) was again touched as of old, and in precisely four days and a half days from the time the divorce was granted a (marriage) license was procured, and the happy couple were again married. We sincerely wish the bride and groom much joy."
