    "The "Strayhorn's", otherwise known as "Strean's" or "Streaughn's", lived in Dauphin County, about 12 miles east of Harrisburg. It was here that my Great-Grandfather, Gilbert Strayhorn, on my mother's side, was born in 1715. He was intimately associated with William Craig the Patriarch in N.C. about 1750, and tradition says that they knew each other before they met in N.C. If this was true, they must have known each other in Dauphin Co. Pa. "
