I had several ancestors in Strange (many are buried in the Presbyterian cemetery there) from the Ross and Wells families and William Wells who owned this property was my 1st cousin 5x removed. I couldn't tell if the house was still occupied and was trying to find if it had been placed on the king heritage register. I would be curious to know if you have any new information about this. Your photos of the property are great!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13535829903261075296noreply@blogger.com
