General Notes: Husband - Richard Strong


The Strong family of England was originally located in Shropshire. One of the family married an heiress of Griffith, of the county of Caernarvon, Wales, and went thither to reside in 1545. Richard Strong was one of this branch of the family, born in Caernarvon in 1561. In 1590 he moved to Taunton, Somersetshire, England, where he died in 1613, leaving a son, John, now known in history as Elder John Strong, "The Pilgrim," and a daughter, Eleanor.
