Hi Sherry, I found Hugh Steer on the Campbell Co. Genweb site, I believe on the 1797 tax list. Campbell is north of Bourbon Co. Good luck with your search. I still look for (first mention in KY was 1790s - d. 1823) John Steele of Pendleton County, and cannot find any connection to the Fayette Co. Steeles or to the Steeles of Bourbon County.
