I am researching the following surnames in Macoupin Co: STEELY (sometimes spelled STEELEY) Isaiah Steely & his wife Sarah Dodson came to Macoupin Co from Cole Co, Missouri between 1845 and 1850 with their children: Elijah Greene Steely, who married Martha Louise Daniel in Macoupin Co. in 1855 (Elijah Greene Steely and Martha Louise Daniel are my great-great-grandparents) Minerva S. Steely, who married Henry M. Wheeler in 1850 Elizabeth Steely, who married Isaac Asbury Owens in Macoupin Co., in 1853 James W. Steely Mary A. Steely DANIEL Wiley Blunt Daniel and his wife Julia Ann Barnett came to Macoupin Co from White Co., Illinois before 1850 with their children: Martha Louise and Elizabeth Daniel, twins May Daniel Polly Daniel their other 3 children were born in Macoupin Co: David Daniel Palnia Daniel Palmyra Daniel Both the Daniels and the Steelys are in the Macoupin Co. Census for 1850 and 1860 only. I do not know if any of them are buried in Macoupin Co. or if all or some of them left to go elsewhere. I have very little information about most of them, although I do know that Elizabeth Steely Owens died about a year after her marriage and I have a lot of information on Minerva S. Steely Wheeler's descendents as well as on the life and descendents of Elijah Greene Steely and Martha Louise Daniel. I would be happy to exchange information with anyone who shares a link with me.
