from a lookup in THE 1683 CENSUS OF SWEDES ON THE DELAWARE, by Craig;
John Andersson Strang....apparently born in America of Swedish parents, John
Andersson Strang (meaning strict in Swedish), sometimes known as "John
Anderson the big', had established residence on Raccoon Creek by 1687. He
claimed 100 acres which he shared with Pal Palsson in 1693, and finally
received a deed confirming his ownership in 1701. He died at his farm on 7
July 1726. His wife Brigitta was buried 20 Jan 1728. Their children
included Anders (b 1679), Peter, Carl (c. 1693), Lars (c. 1698), Ella,
Maria, Anna and Christina.
