  1. 1.  Barney Frank StrongBarney Frank Strong was born on 5 Jan 1914 in Prague, Lincoln County, Oklahoma; died on 3 Jan 2011 in Gainesville, Cooke County, Texas; was buried in Fairview Cemetery, Gainsville, Cooke County, Texas.

    Notes:

    Charles R. Strong of Edinburg called his uncle Barney on March 24, 2005 to ask him what his given name was. Barney said it was "Something strange" that he had never liked much, so he had always gone by Barney. Both Robert Strong and Viola Weaver confirmed this. In his mother's obiturary, he was listed as "Branyard," so he presumably was named Brainerd in honor of his grandfather, Ralph Brainerd and great-grandfather David Brainerd. He was a veteran of World War II, later working as a welder.
