Rodney Strong was born on 8 Aug 1790 in Connecticut (son of Judge John Harris Strong and Elizabeth Cary); died about 1868 in Ohio; was buried in Wickliffe Cemetery, Willoughby Township, Lake County, Ohio.

Notes:

Benjamin Dwight (p. 175) listed him as follows: "Rodney Strong b. Aug. 8, 1790, m. 10 Apr 1828, Mary Taylor. He d. 1868. He had a second (sic) wife, name not given. Children: By first wife: John Harris Strong Sophia Elizabeth Strong m. a Mr. Palmer Mary Amanda Strong Emmeline Strong Sarah Jane Strong By second wife: John Taylor Strong Charles Henry Strong"

It appears from the census records, below, that Mary Taylor must have been the second wife, especially in light of the marriage date of 1828 and considering his eldest son from the second marriage was listed as John Taylor Strong.
