Author: jjconeill1 Surnames: Steele White Russell Bolton Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.steele/3128/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm doing some work on family that emigrated from Ireland in 1849 via New Orleans to New Diggings, Lafayette, WI and later Thompson, Jo Daviess, IL. Scott Steele (the father) and children Robert (24), Peggy Ann (22), Isabella (17), Martha (15) and Glover (12). Only Robert and Isabella can be identified with Scott in the 1850n US census. Robert later married a Susana Bolton in Jo Daviess and had four children (John, Ellen, Alice and Annetta) he died in 1868 or so and she remarried a John Russell. Isabella married a James White in 1852. I can't find anything on the others (although a Glover Steele of the right age and birth) is listed in Illinois in 1860). Am interested in hearing if anyone sees anything familiar amongst the names. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
