Preserved was born March 29, 1680 at Northampton, Massachusetts. He was the son of Jedediah Strong and Freedom Woodward.[1] Family stories suggest that Preserved got his name because he was born during a great snowstorm, and "preserved, notwithstanding it's severity, and the extreme cold weather following".
He married his step-sister, Tabitha Lee October 3, 1701.[2] They had eight children. Among those children are:
Noah, b. 20 Sep 1702
Elisabeth, b. 27 Sep 1704; m. Capt. Joseph Strong; d. 4 May 1792
Moses, b. 14 May 1708
Aaron, b. 14 May 1708
Tabitha, b. 13 Aug 1710; m. James Parker; d. 20 Nov 1730
Mary, b. 10 Jun 1714
They moved to Lebannon, Connecticut in 1709. Sometime after 1730, they moved to Coventry. He was one of the selectmen in Coventry for several years. He passed away September 26, 1765 at Coventry, Connecticut.
