2011-09-03 14:40:28   I believe the name "Strong" cottage should be "Strough" cottage, as is it believed my great-grandfather Arthur Strough built this cottage for his wife and daughters, who were suffering from TB. According to census records, and family history information, my great-grandfather tragically died in a car accident in 1922, but my grandmother, LaVerne Strough and her siblings and step-mother continued to live at this property until around 1928.
