    3. Patt, IA is the abbreviation for Iowa, I think. (hopefully) IT stands for Indian Territory, Oklahoma didn't become a state until 1906, and both my parents were born in 1905. Mom was born in Blaine County, OT( Oklahoma Territory) which was settled first and is in central Oklahoma, NE of Oklahoma City. I guess I should explain briefly that I was born in Oklahoma, and moved to Canada with my parents in 1950. My father brought the first Gulf Oil Rigs into Central Alberta, and he drug me up here yelling and screaming every mile of the way. All of my family is still in the states, some in Oklahoma, some in Kansas and my older brother lives in Ohio. With the death of my father and mother, the only family I have left in Canada is 4 of my five children. The fifth child lives in Georgia, outside Atlanta. Most of my emotional ties remain in OK and KS along with my extended family. But they are getting old now, and are in poor health. Stettler, Alberta is a small community of 5200 people about 146 miles North East of Calgary. This is where my family came in 1950,and where Dad decided to live when he retired. My line of the Steele's homesteaded in a townsite of Retta, Grant County, IT in what is now Oklahoma. Silas and Nettie died in Tonkawa, Grant County and are buried in the IOOF Cemetery there along with their daughter Isla who died at age 4. I have the patent info for Silas and another Steele by the name of Melvin. I do not know if he is related or not, but since it was close to Silas' homestead, I would imagine that there is some connection. I just haven't been down there to a court house to be able to prove it and obtain the papers yet. I hope to make it down there again soon, probably in the spring of 2002. Where abouts are you living? I also have the burial papers on both Silas and Nettie which is all I have to go on in trying to trace their background. Pretty limited, I know. I have been corresponding over the last few years with a Virginia Bontz, who is married to a Steele cousin of mine. I met them originally over the 'net and met them in person in Blackwell in the spring of 2000. They live in Plano, Texas now. I haven't heard of a Taylor in our family, but that does not mean a thing since I do not have any names of the collaterial lines. I am sure that Silas' had siblings, but until I can tie down the right John Steele m to Elizabeth Lair, I don't have a chance of locating any brothers or sisters. It is sooo frustrating. I will keep my eyes and ears open for your Taylor, and will keep you abreast of any discoveries I may get. Stay in touch.

In the 70's I spoke to my great-aunt Florence, and she told me about the family and mentioned her brother Clark (she called him Clarkie). Since then, other members of the family thought I made up that name because they never remembered hearing it. Did he move from Pa. at a young age? Florence's married name was Salmon, and she had a son named Pete who I believe lives in Florida now. I think he was interested in genealogy but I haven't been in touch with him. What I do know is that Florence and Milo lived most of their lives in New Castle, Pa. My grandfather Milo was born in Petersburg Ohio, and I don't know about the others. He was born 2-18-97. Does that year seem close to when Clark may have been born? Their parents were John B. Steele and Melissa Kariher. I think they were both buried in Petersburg Ohio. John's parents were David Steele and Elizabeth. David's mother was Alexandria. Melissa's parents were John and Minerva an! d both were buried near Petersburg and/or New Middletown, OH I hope this helps, and that your husband and I are really related.
