Hi Tina, I believe that I have what you are looking for on my Families of Steel(e) website at http://www.geocities.com/famsteel/ I forget exactly which page they are on, but look under Richard Steele's family. I am very busy working on records for the Tazewell County website right now, but this is your line- Hi Cousin!.
