Tom, if you check out the 1895 maps site, you will find "Steele" listed in
Adams Co, IN, :

little town of Steele in Blue Creek Twp.......

Thanks to all for the help. I could not find Steele either on my 1876
map
of
Adams Co. or in the 1882 Biographical and Historical Record reprint
that I
have. Both do, however, mention Salem.
My reference to the milling operation near Peterson came from p. 329 of the
1882 history, "Samuel S. Steele, a member of the firm of Steele & Lenhart,
proprietors of the saw and planing mill at Peterson..."
Unfortunately I can't remember at this time who the persons were that came
from Steele. It'll take a few days to finish transcribing my taped notes of
the marriage records I reviewed.
