- Rev. Peter Gray
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. | Steele, Robert Moore (I3735)

"Minott moved to Toulon in 1834, and settled there until 1836, when he opened a farm, afterwards known as the Culbertson farm. In 1837 he moved to Goshen township and opened the lands which he entered in 1835-6, building a cabin near the creek on section 24, moved to section 23, in 1840. In August, 1839 he was elected the first treasurer of the county and served until 1854. In 1850 he was elected coroner. He served as justice of the peace for some years. In 1870 he was United States Marshal for census. Mr. Silliman voted the Democratic ticket up to 1856, when he voted the Republican candidates. He has been a Republican since that time. In 1861 he and Oliver Whitaker were chosen to take charge of the sustenance fund until the Toulon company was mustered in with the One-hundred-and-twelfth. His son Levi entered the One-hundred-and-twelfth Regiment, where he was wounded, but served out his term. Mr. Silliman was married in Essex township in 1833 to Miss Rhoda, daughter of Benj. Smith, one of the first settlers. This lady died May 9, 1841. He married Miss Henrietta Bethen for second wife, who died November 6, 1848. He married his present wife, Latitia Oziah, daughter of Anthony Oziah and Anne (Layne) Oziah, November 4, 1847. His children now living are Clarissa, now Mrs. Wilcox of Blair, Neb.; Levi, born September 17, 1842, now a resident of Toulon; Sarah, residing at home, and Mary, born March 22, 1853, now Mrs. A.F.

Letitia Ann Smith Crouch, daughter of William Perry Smith and Sarah Roberts Smith, was born at Cumberland, Ind., March 1, 1859, and died at her home in Nortonville, Kan., on November 5, 1932.
On October 19, 1882, she was united in marriage to Ansel Crouch, who preceded her in death, July 19, 1926. To this union were born six children, two of whom - Homer and Julia - died in childhood.
Soon after her marriage she united with the South Hampton (West Hallock, Ill.) Seventh Day Baptist Church, where she was a loyal member until 1911 when the family moved to Nortonville and she joined the church there. She was a faithful member of this church at the time of her death.
She is survived by Ansel B. of Nortonville and Reta I. of Albuquerque, N. M., who as Mr. Crouch's motherless children grew up in her home and learned to know and love her as their mother; and by her four living children; Royal of Center Line, Mich.; Myrtle, wife of A. G. Saunders, Rapatee, Ill.; Grace, wife of Arthur Langworthy, and Alice, wife of Earl Stephan, both of Nortonville; and by a sister, Mrs. H. D. Burdick, and a brother, J. C. Smith, also of Nortonville; besides twenty grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
Farewell services were conducted at the Seventh Day Baptist church on November 7, by Pastor Lester G. Osborn. Interment was made in the Nortonville cemetery, the committal services being in charge of the W. C. T. U. of which she had been an active member for years. L. G. O. | Smith, Letitia (I2251)
