I may have found John's parents and siblings. See if this might be the ones you're
searching:
In the 1860 census I noticed that John E. Strong, age 10, born OH was living with George
B. Dulin family. I also noticed there was a Milo Strong right next door, age 13 also born
OH living with Levi Shoemaker family.
I then searched for Milo in 1850 since he was born about 1847 and found him in Trumbull
Co. OH Bristol Township. His name was misspelled as "Mile Strong".
1850: Trumbull Co. OH Bristol Twp.
William Strong, age 60 farmer b. MA
Polly age 45 b. Trumbull Co. OH
Eliza age 20 b. Trumbull Co. OH
Electa age 18 b. Trumbull Co. OH
James W. age 16, b. Trumbull Co. OH Farmer
Margaret age 13 b. Trumbull Co. OH
Marietta age 10 b. Trumbull Co. OH
Cannot read first name, looks like Tyezew Ann Strong, age 8 b. Trumbull Co. OH
Ellen, age 7 b. Trumbull Co. OH
Milo Strong (written as Mile) age 4 b. Trumbull Co. OH
I then searched 1870 for Milo and found him in Boone Co. IN Whitestown Post Office living
with the same man that John lived with in 1860, George B. Dulin. Milo's name was
spelled by Ancestry as "Milon". He was age 22, b. OH and was a farm laborer.
I searched for the marriage of John E. Strong and Hannah Good and found the marriage in
Boone Co. IN 21 Feb 1872.
(Same place as Milo was living in 1870.)
Birth dates in the 1900 census for John and Hannah were:
John b. Nov 1850; Hannah b. May 1849.
Hope this helps.
