Our family has always said that the Steele line originated in PA, but I have never been able to find anything at all on this. We were told there was a Samuel Lemuel Steele who m. a Barbara or an Elizabeth Ishmal/Ishmael.
My mother was Marian Virginia Steele b. 1918 Warrensburg, Johnson Co MO to Pearl Hitchens and Thomas Alex Steele both b. abt 1895. (census info varies on both of them). Thomas was the son of John Riley Steele and Mary Ann Combs. John Riley was son of Jonathan or John Steele and Barbara Winkle-dtr of Joseph Winkle who spent time n DeWitt co IL. Have info, census records etc on these people. Some Steeles were also in IL and IN.
Pearl Hitchens had three sisters in MO who married three Clapper men:
Bertha Helen (birth name Bertha; she chose Helen for herself) m. James Noah Clapper; Clara May m. Richard Harvey Clapper; Anna Marie m. Benjamin Perry Clapper. These men were son of Charles and Hannah Frances Jackson Clapper who had 4 more childen. Women were dtrs of Jacob C. Hitchens and Nancy E. Evans who had about 12 children total whose ages changed on almost every census.
Do you see any connection to your Clapper / Steele line. I am very interested in the Steele line and can send you more if you want it.
Thanks, virginia

Clapper/Hitchens line is mine thru my mother who was a Steele. The three Hitchens women who married the Clapper men had a sister named Pearl, and she was my maternal grandmother.
I do have the Clappers in my database. I just last year did some work on Clapper lines and when we were home in Johnson Co on Memorial Day we went to Holden to the old Cem. and found Clapper gravesites and put flowers on them.
I am Virginia WINN Parker and would really like to discuss this line with you. Your current e-mail address is not good tho as listed in your message. vmwparker(a)aol.com
