Robert Moore Steele appears to have lived in Centre County, Pennsylvania until 1846 (34 yrs. old). He is listed as a Justice of the Peace in Huston Township on 4/15/1846 and his son Jasper was born there 5/18/1846. Shortly thereafter he removed his family to Lawrence County, OH. Census reports list him as a laborer in Elizabeth Township in 1850, and as a collier in Milton Township, Jackson County, OH in 1860. Robert enlisted in the U.S. Army on 12/10/1861 to serve for 3 years. He was 1st Sergeant to Captain John Cook, Company K, 56th Regiment, OH Volunteer Infantry. He received a medical discharge on 9/6/1862 at Columbus, OH. The reason given for the medical discharge is "Eczema". His address on the discharge was Reeds Mills, Vinton County, OH. His Army discharge describes R.M. Steele as 6 feet in height; dark complexion; Hazel eyes; Grey hair. His occupation when he enlisted was "Furnaceman". His age on the discharge was 44, however he was actually 50 according to family records and census reports. This discrepancy implies that Robert reduced his age (lied?) so as to be able to enlist in the Army. His son Robert added a couple years to his age so as to enlist, and his son's George and James were also in the Army.

Robert married Leebrick (Lebrick), Caroline Belinda on 21 Oct 1836 in Petersburg, Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, USA. Caroline (daughter of Leebrick, Daniel Henry and Peters, Elizabeth) was born on 6 Apr 1816 in Virginia, USA; died on 11 Apr 1900 in Hamden, Vinton, Ohio, USA; was buried .

2. Daniel Henry LEEBRICK was born on 30 May 1773 in Manheim, Pa. He was christened on 27 Jun 1773 in Manheim, Pa. Baptised this date Sponsors were John and Barb Hans AT Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Manheim Henry and Daniel are the same person. He moved to Lebanon Pa where he was a saddler, reported then to have moved to Virginia.

Karl C. Leebrick says that research done by Reams Leebrick, 1515 Radcliff Avenue, Lynchburg, Virginia, indicates that Daniel left for Nelson county, Virginia shortly after Dec 1806 when Louise was born. Reams says Daniel established an "Ordinary" on the property. In local terms, that is a tavern and rooming house. He says that there were three more children born in Virginia: Catherine Ann, Nicholas and Frederick.

Daniel married Peters, Elizabeth. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
