    • In Benjamin Dwight's book, the following children are listed:

      Edwin Lee Strong b. in Cleveland, O, April 15, 1860 Samuel (M?)Erwin Strong b. Nov 2, 1866

      According to the 1860 and 1870 census, it appears that Samuel was actually the older child and Lee the younger. Perhaps Dwight simply transposed the birthdates.
