Many people have confused Ninian Steeles. In Rowan County, NC, at one time there were several Ninians. I have a lot of infomation concerning them, however, I have been out of the research for several years. Ninian Steel and Samuel were believed to of been brothers (In chester, pa) they both married sisters, both Furthey's. Some people will have you believe that Ninian who was in Chester County moved to Rowan County, however, he did not, it was his son Ninian who did. Robert Steele aka, Robert Steele the school master also had a son Ninian. This Ninian served in the revolutionary war and was married to Agnes Graham (per the war records, a receipt for some arms Agnes turned into the government after Ninan's death. Also, during this time, in Rowan County, NC, there was a Captian Ninian Steel, who died in 1813. Captian Ninian and the Ninian who married Agnes Graham are believed to be nephew/uncle. Samuel Steel for thunderhill, was well written of in Chester County, PA, he was trusted and known for his work will horses, and was asked to help purchase horses for the continental army. If you get a chance to visit the DAR (Daughters of American Revolution) in Washington or chester county pa, do so, it will aide in your research. Also, archives in Rowan County receives copies of "The Steele Report" which is a useful tool published by a man in Missouri who is a Steele researcher. He has sent copies of his work, and others to Rowan County. I hope this will give you some information, and be helpful to those who are looking for Ninian's! Good Rootin' Missi
