I also want to thank Jack for the list of hyperlinks. I have been able to verify some of my information and correct some spellings of names. I have Steele's that come from Canada back to England to about the 1700's. If anyone has Elmes Yelverton Steele or Elmes Steele in their group, I might be able to help you. Surnames that I am hunting for: Steele, Douglas, Hall, Norton, Reifsteck, Sjordal and the Blackfeet Indians. I have been doing genealogy for about 4 years and have been fairly successful. Have found a cousin and a half-sister this past year!! Marty Hayden Idaho. ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
