Carol Strong Nelson (NELSONCRLS@aol.com) emailed that : "My Dad is Norman Randall Strong, 86, the participant in the test (kit #6811). I am the one who encouraged him to take the test, and I guess, the family genealogist.

It appears that your line did alot of moving westward, while mine stayed put! The house here in Vernon was built by my gggrandfather, Nathan Morgan Strong in 1878. He wanted to move to Ohio after living in about twelve other homes here in town. His wife, Abbie Louise Hollister, refused to move again, and thus the homestead and farm was built. She called the shots having inherited a modest sum from her father, a Glastonbury, CT native."
