Long ago in the year of 1619 a Sir George Yeardley made a trip back to England, where he was knighted, and made governor of Virginia. He employed a young man named William Strong who at the time was 18 from London. They both made the trip back to the colonies on the ship "George". There are some records not available about William due to nature and civil wars. My line desends of the family moved south to Clark and Heard Counties in Georgia, then to Tallapoosa and Clay Counties, Alabama.
