Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
FYI...
Currently, there is a discussion on a proposed General
Policy on information concerning living people taking
place on the USGENWEB Board of Directors.
The link to the archived index is at:
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/BOARD/ and the
thread in reference to the proposal is at:
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/BOARD/2005-04/1113226079
Whether it be the violation of privacy or an
invitation to identity theft it is a proposal to
respect the privacy of living individuals. The Project
members and transcribers are strongly encouraged to
limit the posting of any information on living persons
or persons that might reasonably be assumed to be
living. Individual webmasters and file managers are
personally responsible for the information they choose
to post on their USGenWeb-affiliated websites.. The
Birth, death and marriage indexes that are covered
under the USGW Project for Adams County has several
notices of living people, especially ones born after
1917. Marriages are lasting now more then 60 years
making some information in those files an invitation
to identity theft.
Most of us have family that are still living and their
public information is there for anyone to see and use.
If you value your families privacy, then write to the
manager of the website and tell him how you feel. It
is your choice as to having the information published
on a public website or finding the information in the
library where privacy is maintained or limited.

Good Morning Lynn:
Re: your 4/11/05 note;
"Bessie as Bertha A/Bessie Steele. Her parents were Dayton V. Steele
an Elizabeth Mary Middleton."
"Wilma's dd is 11-1-1994"
My questions;
1. Who is 'Bertha A/Bessie', and who is the 'Wilma' to whom you refer?
2. In looking closely at the 1900 FC of Decatur Indiana, City (16-18/42)
STEELE,
Lillie (10/1880) The middle initial looks like a D or it c/b a P. Are you
sure her middle name was Bell?
Can you verify your sources for us please. Thanks
In family love, Dick
Good Morning Sara:
I agree, the Steele's are quite a group. I can confirm only those
mentioned in my note of 4/10/05, namely, Levi, his son Dayton and Dayton's
children. Dayton's firstborn, Della Mary (or May) Steele was the wife of my
granduncle, James Eady.
This brings me to your question at the end of your 4/10/05 note. Re:
Andrews or Burkhead connections. I have several, here is a quick recap;
ANDREWS:
Jeremiah Washington (1836-1904) wed 1859, Sarah J. Burkhead (1840-___)
ch: Sarah S (1863), Sebila J. (1867), Frank (1873) & Charles W. (1876).
John D. (1852-1932) wed 1874, <*1>Teresa Ball (1857-1917) ch: <*2>
Nellie M. (1876), Charles W. (1879), Gertrude (+/- 1880), Chancy (1883), & Harry
(1888).
<*1> Teresa wed James H. Ball in 1815 <*2> Nellie wed my grand uncle,
Enoch Eady in 1893.
Rebecca (1828-1874) wed 1848, Nathan H. Burkhead (+/- 1836-___)
If any of this connects for you, I have more detailed data.
In family love, Dick

I have that Arthur M Abbott bd 1878 Terre Haute,Virgo,IN dd 1911 Wells Co,IN married Lena/Lana Steele daughter of Samuel Sands Steele jr and Sarah Kirck. Bd for Lena 8-2-1881 Adams Co,IN dd 1-29-1962 Chicago,Cook,IL .The marriage date is 10-25-1899 Adams Co,IN They had the following children:
Eve E Abbott bd 1-9-1901 Wells Co,IN -no other information
Louis Abbott bd 3-24-1902 Decatur,Adams,IN -no other information
Florence Abbott bd 10-26-1904-no other information
I can find no information regarding these children other than they attended school in Decatur and Bluffton. Are they still alive? Did they marry? What happened to these children?
Lena then married a Thomas Crosby Gordon on 5-15-1915 and they had one child Doris Marie Gordon bd 1-24-1916 Bluffton,Wells, IN dd 4-3-2000 Caldwell,Burleson,TX.
She married Christian Eby 10-21-1909 ?dd 8-24-1994 ?in ? They were divorced and she married Guy Arthur Franceschini bd 4-2-1918 Adams,MA dd 4-4-1998 Caldwell,Burleson,TX. . Marriage date 11-27-1947 Miami,Dade,FL
The information on Doris Gordon comes from her DAR application as she is a direct descendent of George Steele. The application is in my files. Birth dates for the Abbott girls comes from the Welfley book. Lynn
Lynn;
In the SSDI, I found a Louis M Abbott, but birthdate
was different. ( 02 Nov 1901 ) which is only three
months off. He died 23 Jun 1991 in Chicago. Zip Code:
60690.
If his father was Arthur M. he could have carried the
middle name ("M") since he was the only son.
The girls may have married as they were not listed
under their maiden names.

Joey, thanks, so she was the daughter of John and Ranchel Andrews Barnett. I
was thinking about it last night and decided that is where she came from.
Sandy
Thanks, Lynn; for the information. I will make sure
to keep an eye open for it.
BTW, if this is for Tim's website, why promote it on
this mailing list? Why not use his list for the
promotion?
An answer would be appreciated.

Trudi WEAVER received one or two bounces (returned
e-mails) as a result of her attempts at contact plus
she received a disappointing response from another
person who only was interested in the METZGERs as a
collateral line and wasn't directly related or
interested in the family. However, she received some
wonderful replies from cousins of Mrs. METZGER and her
late husband who were eager to connect with their
American family members. Not only had Trudi found two
second cousins from Mrs. METZGER's ZIEGLER family in
Germany, and a second cousin once removed of her
husband's METZGER family, she had also heard from some
cousins whose ancestors had left Germany shortly after
the METZGERs and von der LINDTs had immigrated to
America -- only these cousins had moved to other parts
of the globe. Replies came from cousins in South
Africa, New Zealand, and South America. She carefully
printed out the e-mails and message board replies to
show Mrs. METZGER. Trudi's proudest moment was
informing Mrs. METZGER that, indeed, one of the
cousins still living in Germany was able to identify
some of the people in the photos she wanted to label
for her grand- children. Furthermore, Heidi ZIEGLER
SCHMIDT, wanted to know if Mrs. METZGER would like to
correspond by postal mail or even chat on the phone.
She wished to discuss the photos of Mrs. METZGER's
family and an opportunity to practice her seemingly
flawless English. Trudi knew she should check first
with Mrs. METZGER before giving out her phone number
or postal address but, as she expected, the elderly
lady was thrilled at the prospect of filling in the
names and learning about the people she only knew from
faces on the old fading photos. When Trudi returned
home after delivering her triumphant news to Mrs.
METZGER, her thoughts turned to learning more about
her own family history. Her mom promised to give her
aunt Anna a call that evening since she was the family
"historian." Trudi's father remembered his family
Bible was hidden away in the back of the closet where
it had been gathering dust since he and his brothers
cleaned out their grandmother's house long ago. The
Bible was quite old and Trudi examined the entries
with their flowing lettering. She gradually put
together the names and dates; the carefully recorded
baptisms, marriages, and deaths. The name of the
minister who performed each ceremony was listed beside
each entry as well. Gertrude SCHNEIDER -- there it was
-- the name of her paternal grandmother for whom she
had been named. The Bible entries took her back
through earlier generations and the names all sounded
German to Trudi -- just as she had suspected.
Obituaries and letters were carefully tucked inside
the Bible for safekeeping. There was a marriage
certificate, yellowed with age, which recorded the
marriage of her great-great-grandparents, Magdalena
HOFFMAN and Conrad WEBER. So she was right! The name
WEAVER had originally been WEBER. Inside another page
of the family Bible Trudi found a very old baptismal
certificate that was beautifully printed in German
with colorful heart- shaped designs of flowers and
birds intertwined amidst the printing. Before long
Trudi was armed with more names and family history
after her mother presented her with notes she had
taken while talking to her aunt on the phone. Trudi
headed for the Internet upon learning that her
grandaunt had placed a GEDCOM on WorldConnect
http://wc.rootsweb.com/ -- ironically the very place
Trudi had researched information for Mrs. METZGER! The
notes in the database, plus other information she was
reading online about the Pennsylvania Dutch, soon
brought Trudi to the realization that although she can
Mrs. METZGER and were both of Germanic heritage there
was a difference in researching the more recent
German-American immigrants and her Pennsylvania
Dutchmen.
Trudi's families had arrived in Pennsylvania prior to
the American Revolution, which meant a great deal of
research had to be in American records.
Trudi discovered that RootsWeb has three mailing lists
devoted to various aspects of Pennsylvania Dutch
genealogy, heritage, culture, dialect, and even foods
and recipes: PADUTCHgenONLY-L, PENNA-DUTCH-L, and
PADUTCH-LIFE-L can be found linked from this page:
http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Ethnic-German/
There is also a message board for Pennsylvania Dutch
topics.
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=topics.ethnic.padutch
On a website Trudi found some FAQs about the PA Dutch
and learned more about the colorful baptismal
certificate she had found. It was an example of a
"fraktur" and called a "taufschein." Frakturs were
quite popular among the early Pennsylvania Dutch
settlers.
http://midatlantic.rootsweb.com/padutch/faqs/fraktur.html
Much of Trudi's research was going to be centered
right near her home in Pennsylvania and online with
the many PA Dutch resources at RootsWeb. She found
obituaries for her namesake grandmothers tucked inside
the Bible, which brought them to life for Trudi as she
read about their dedication to their large families
and the rich heritage from which they sprang. Trudi
decided that being named Gertrude Wilhelmine wasn't so
bad after all and she'd try to make her German
ancestors proud.

Do you Yahoo!?
Yahoo! Mail - You care about security. So do we.
http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
RootsWeb now offers the most recent version of the
Social Security Death Index (SSDI), which includes
records through February 2005, and is happy to
announce that thanks to Ancestry.com this database is
available and will be updated on a monthly schedule.
http://ssdi.rootsweb.com/ This database contains
several important bits of information on the more
74,734,651 persons whose deaths are on file with the
U.S.'s Social Security Administration, including:
social security number, date of issuance, state of
issuance, date of birth, date of death, and last
residence of record. The SSDI includes names of
virtually all individuals deceased after 1962, the
first full year records were computerized -- if the
deaths were reported to the SSA. (A limited number of
records from as far back as 1937 are also included.)
The database also includes the names of legal aliens
with social security numbers and some 400,000 railroad
retirees, who may be entitled to collect Railroad
Retirement Board pensions and benefits. However, there
are many reasons why a person might not be in the
SSDI: -- SSA might not have been notified of the
person's death. -- Person might have died before the
SSA began putting its records on the computer in 1962.
-- Individual might not have had a Social Security
number. -- Information might have been reported
incorrectly. -- Person might have changed his or her
name. -- Person might have used a different spelling
of his or her name. -- Database has an estimated three
per cent error rate. The most frequent reason
researchers are unable to find someone in the SSDI is
including too much information in the search options.
If you are searching for Joseph L. Benefield (as an
example), he might be recorded exactly that way, or as
J. L. Benefield or as Joe Benefield or Joe Lawrence
Benefield. His surname (family name) might be spelled
differently than you expect. His birth and death dates
may differ from the information you have. You might
believe he resided in Kansas when he obtained his
Social Security number, and perhaps he did, but the
SSA office where it was issued was in Oklahoma at the
time. If you are unsuccessful in finding someone, try
searching with less information -- and be flexible and
creative. Did you know that Social Security numbers
(SSN) are not reused after a person dies? Even though
the SSA has issued more than 415 million SSNs so far,
and it assigns about 5.5 million new numbers a year,
the current numbering system will provide it with
enough new numbers for several generations into the
future with no changes in the numbering system.

Lynn:- Considering all these e-mails on the STEELE surname, I must ask my
question again:- Anyone know the parents of the Clayton Steele who married
Florence L. Smith in Fort Wayne on 24 May 1921. Florence was born in
Magley, Adams County in September 1889 and Clayton was born in Hicksville,
Defiance Co., OH on 4 Jun 1897??

Lynn,
I have the following re: Bess A. Steele [1883-1945] d/o James A. &
Victorine LeBrun Steele, one of 8 children born to this couple. Bess m.
Homer Andrews [1885-1952] s/o Cassius "Cash" & Mary Pease Andrews, one of
12 children born to this couple. I have their marriage as 3 Mar 1907
Adams Co., IN. Much of this information has come from biographical
sketches in Snow's History of Adams Co. and the 1979 History of Adams
Co., IN.
If you are interested in the children of James & Victorine Steele [FYI,
James married Mary Merryman/Merriman after Victorine's death in 1905] I
have that information.

Hi everyone,
I have Bessie as Bertha A/Bessie Steele. Her parents were Dayton V Steele
and Elizabeth Mary Middleton. Wilma's dd is 11-1-1994 according to SS
Index. Also married to Herman Mayo bd 7-29-1886 dd 11 1969
Indianapolis,Marion,IN( There is another Bertha May/Bessie Steele bd
12-16-1887 dd 1 1972 Springfield, OH married to William K Hughes bd 3-5-1892
dd 4-1974 Springfield, OH).
Lillie Bell Steele's parents were Dayton V and Elizabeth Mary Middleton. I
agree with the marriage date of 1-24-1909 Adams Co,In(WPA notation I 385)
Who were Blanche Steele's parents?
Ruben Berry bd 1-10-1848 Fairfield Co,Oh dd 1924 Adams Co,In-burial Berry
Cem, Elizabeth Steele bd 12-17-1851 Adams Co,IN dd 1920 Adams Co. In also
buried in Beery Cem. Elizabeth's parents were Joseph Steele and Sarah
Serring.
Titus Hayes Ernst 11-7-1845 Ashland Co,OH dd 1923 Adams Co, IN married to
Harriet M Sewell June 1849 Wells Twp, Jefferson Co, Oh( a very, ,very
distant relative of my husband) dd 1905 Adams Co,In Both buried in Pleasant
Mills Cem,Adams Co,IN. Titus Ernst parents were John O Ernst and Rebecca
Ann Steele.
Now for Mary M Steele daughter of Charles F Steele and Mary M Plummer bd
1879 Lancaster,Wells, In dd 12-11-1940 married to Furhman/Furmin ( in
census) Dellinger bd 5-15-1918 location? dd 3-10-2004 Willshire,Van
Wert,OH( SS Index)
James Andrew Steele bd 8-1-1850 Magley,Kirkland,Adams,IN dd 1928 married
Mary Merriman( is Merryman right?) bd 1857 location? dd 1940 location? His
parents were Samuel Sands Steele Sr bd 3-8-1811 Bedford Co,PA dd 5-8-1858
Adams Co,In married to Susanna Worley bd 3-5-1819 PA dd 6-20-1888 Adams
Co,In This James Andrew Steele is not to be confused with James A Steele bd
1872 location? parents Martin Steele and Charlotte and A James Madison
Steele whos parents were Joseph Steele and Sarah Serring.
The Steele family came from Bedford Co,PA and are descendents of George
Steele who was in the Rev War. There is a good book on the Steeles which is
in the Ft Wayne library. The Descendents of George Steele and his wife
Margart Doleman, late of Bedford Co,Pa . It was written by William F
Welfley who was a great grandson of George. William F Welfley was also the
mayor of Somerset, PA( Yes, where the plane went down in 9/11) and he wrote
the History of Somerset Co and Bedford Co,PA. It is considered an orginal
source by DAR and SAR and it was written in 1908. The most of the Steeles in
Adams Co, In are descendents of George's son Jacob Steele and Mary Elizabeth
Smith. They moved from Bedford Co,PAto Ashland Co, from PA, died there in
1837 . There son another George Steele and his wife Margret/Peggy Shoup who
were married in Bedford Co,PA came to Ashland Co,OH. They came to Adams
Co,IN after 1837. They are buried in the Pleasant Dale Cememtery in Adams
Co,IN. Most of the family in the early days were members of the German
Brethren Church. George and Margaret had 12 children so that is why there
are so many Steeles in Adams Co,IN.
My mother was Pauline Charity Steele and my step- mother was Lelah Faith
Steele Davis Robock Hilty. ( My father married my mother's sister when they
were both 80 and they both had lost their second mates). They both are on
page 131 of this book. I realize that the Steele family is confusing.
there are about 13 George Steeles and about the same number of James and
Abraham Steeles.
I hope I have cleared up some questions about the Steele family. I have an
old genealogy of the Steeles posted on the Adams Co,IN website . Some of
what I have posted here is not on the Adams Co,site and I have posted the
Beery Cemetery also. The Pleasant Mills Cem, and the Pleasant Dale cemetery
records are also on the web site.
Lynn
