The c. 1699 house of Return Strong, Sr. is the oldest on North Meadow Road in Windsor. Return Strong was a tanner, like his father, John Strong. He also served as a Lieutenant in the Hartford County Cavalry Troop, a deputy to the General Court and a Justice of the Peace for the county. Return Strong was the great-grandfather of John Strong of the John and Sarah Strong House.
