of this subject was born in Rockbridge County, Va., in 1772, and was a
minister in the Reformed Church; he died in 1832.  The grandfather of Dr.
Steele was a native of Ireland, and came to Kentucky in 1778, dying in
1828.  Dr. Steele was married Nov. 17, 1846, to Miss Julia F. Wood,
daughter of Nimrod Wood, of Nicholas County, Ky., by which union there have
been born six children: Anna J. (Mrs. Marsh); Ida (Mrs. Piper); Ella (Mrs.
Norvill); John, Julia F., and Maggie W.  The doctor practiced his
profession in his early years in Springfield, Ohio, but retired from active
practice 30 years ago.  He owns 172 acres of land, his place being known as
"Warbler's Glen" and himself, wife and family, with one exception are
