The surname Strong or STRONG Stronge is a corruption for Straunge or Storange. branches of which family were at an early period seated in various counties in Eng- land. In the Calendar Inquisition Post Mortem we find Hugo Straunge ( Henry V.) having estates near York. Baldewin Straunge was in the county of Stafford in the time of Henry VI .. and Johannes Straunge was armiger in the counties of

Norfolk and Suffolk in the fifteenth year of the same reign. Gage's History of Suffolk contains an account of John Straunge be- queathing certain lands in that county a cen- tury earlier. 1378. The will of Johannes Strange of Coventry bears date 1522. Nether Stronge in Somersetshire seems to have been the "cunabilia gentis", the name occurring frequently in the records of that and adjoining counties after this date. Rev. Dr. Strong, rector of More Critchfield. in Dorsetshire, afterwards a famous preacher at Westminster Abbey, buried there July 4. 1654, was probably of the Nether Stronge family. Melanethon Strong. of the Nether Stronge family was living in 1659, and had two daughters, Mary Gosforth. and Eliza- beth, born 1687, married Samuel Sande- forth, and had Anne, who married. April 12. 1742, Robert Streatfield. His son, Me- lanethon Stronge, who according to an entry in the books of the Haberdashers Company for 1694 was apprenticed for several years to a London tradesman, subsequently settled in Garrott, near Waudsworth, county Sur- rey, and died March 28, 1750. Melancthon Stronge, born 1706, married Eleanor San- ders, daughter of Thomas of Hockwood, in Charlwood, of the ancient family of San- ders of Sandersfield; children: Melane- thon, died young; Thomas. Clement Sam- uel, married Inn Streetfield, and resided at Sedgefield near Durham. Thomas, second son of Melancthon, was born November. 1733, married. 1764. Sophia, daughter and sole heir of Robert Alsop, of Great Marl- boro street. lord mayor of London. 1752. and sheriff 1747, the year in which Lords Lovatt and Radeliffe. the titular Earl of Derwent- water, were beheaded. This family inter- married with that of Sir Francis Drake. The old coat-of-arms of the family is described : Gules an eagle displayed or. Crest: An eagle displayed or. A prominent branch of the family resided in Dublin and county Armagh, Ireland.


(I) Thomas Strong, immigrant ancestor of this family in America, was born in Eng-


land, probably in or near London, whence he came to New York early in the nineteenth century. He married Maria, daughter of Henry and .Ann ( Ogden) Peers. It is family tradition that he left home on ac- count of a family disagreement over the dis- tribution of his father's estate. He settled about 1790 on a farm near what is now Central Park, New York City, where he passed the rest of his life. He was a man of good repute. He died in 1827. Chil- dren: 1.

Dr. McClintock of New York ; he wrote to the compiler of the very ex- haustive Strong Genealogy that his father died when he was four years old, and that there had been no communication main- tained with his father's relatives in England, so that he knew of no way of tracing his an- cestry. Thomas Strong had brothers John and James in England.

The Salmons were an an- SALMON cient and chivalrous Scotch family who, during the turbulent period which culminated in the seating of Robert Bruce upon the throne of Scotland ( 1306). fought valiantly for the preservation of their national independ- ence, and at least one of them, if not more. was knighted by that monarch. In the fourteenth century the Salmons migrated to England, and settled in Scotland. In 1640 three families of this name emigrated to America, one settling in Massachusetts, an-


other in New Jersey and the third estab- lished themselves at Southold, Long Island. Among the latter was William Salmon, who married the widow of Matthew Sunderland prior to 1649. and had William.

The surname Lee. in common with LEE those of Lea and Leigh. is de- rived from the Saxon word Lay or Leah, meaning "the pasture or place". The Lees are included among the ancient fami- lies of England. Launcelot Lee, a follower of William the Conqueror. received from that sovereign as a reward for his services in the conquest a large estate in the county of Essex. During the twelfth century tio families of this name settled at what he- came known as High Legh. in Cheshire. Lionel Lee accompanied Richard Coeur de Lion in the third crusade.

arms. Jolin Leigh, of Agawam (Ipswich). Massachusetts, came over in 1634. and be- tween the latter year and 1765 no less than ten immigrants named Lee arrived in Amer- ica from the mother country.
