Help Finding Parents of William H. Strong???

I need help identifying the parents of William H. Strong. I believe another person and I are cousins through my 9x g-grandfather, Ezra Strong and Abigail Caverly. I've seen William H. listed as being born in 1849 and died in 1887 in Pennsylvania. He was also married to a Rebecca Jane Weyandt (1854-1934).

I have found a William H. Strong though born in 1851 to an Alonso Strong and Lydia Rockwell. It very well may be the same person but it would be great if someone could confirm this for me. Because if Alonso was his father, that would make him a descendant of Elder John Strong, the grandfather of my Ezra Strong.

If anyone could help me with this, it would be much appreciated!!!

The first one I know for sure is him because his wife is also buried there with him. But as far as where exactly in Pennsylvania he was born, I'm not sure. But I do know his wife was born in Freedom Township in Adams County, Pennsylvania and they married in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. And at least one of their children was born in Freedom Township.
Also at one point, I believe they moved to Altoona in the same county they're buried in.
