1020 Steele : English Place name, from 'stile' or a place of steep ascent.

It is not known when Francis Steele emigrated to America. He was born in Northern Ireland in 1741 and was married in Pennsylvania in 1771. Francis and Margaret Crow were married by a minister of the Church of England. They were living in Warwick Furnace, Chester County, Pennsylvania when Francis was called up by the Pennsylvania Militia. He was commissioned an Ensign of a company of foot. The commission is dated May 31, 1777. An extract of a listing of officers is as follows:

4th Batt. of Militia of Chester County
6th Company
James Boylan Captain
Saml. Hammel 1 Leut.
Jas. McAllister 2 Leut.
Francis Steel Ensign
Certified: Wm. Evans, Col. 6-5-1777

Francis was three (3) times in service for 2 months each time for total service time of 6 months. He was drafted once and twice he substituted for other men who were called up. He served under General Irvin. He was at the Battle of Brandywine and participated in a skirmish near Wilmington, Delaware.
After the war, Francis and Margaret lived in Philadelphia and Myerstown, and then they moved to Centre County where they lived on a farm.
Testimonials in Margaret Steele's declaration for a widow's pension indicate the following residences.
"For some time" in Brandywine, Chester County (signed Nathan Grier VDM; Nov. 4th - 1789).
"For some considerable time" in Bellefonte, Centre County (signed Henry R. Wilson VDM; March 10th 1806).
"Was several years in our congregation" (signed) William A. Boyd V. D. M. and Pastor of Spruce Creek and Sinking Valleys. Certified at Spruce Creek, Huntingdon County; October 22nd 1817.

The spelling of "Steele" and "Steel" are used at the discretion of the speller. Francis' signature appears on his will and is spelled "Steele." His commision and other militia records spell his name "Steel." Francis' son Martin spelled his name "Steel" and Martin's son Robert M. reverted to "Steele." Take your choice!

A printed copy of Francis Steele's will, preserving spelling and capitalization of the written document follows:

1031 The Edelstein community was thrown into grief early last Sunday evening when it became known that death had taken one of its most loved residents, Miss mary Shane, from its midst with appalling suddenness. It was known that Miss Shane was in a precarious state of health, as she had been near death from a severe attack of acute indigestion two weeks previous, but it was hoped she would soon recover. She was able to attend the Edelstein homecoming a week following this illness and had attended the anniversary reception for Mr. and Mrs. John Vars Sunday. She was seemingly as well as usual when she had left for home in the late afternoon, turing to wave and say, "goodbye, everybody," as she went out the door only to be striken with a heart attack almost immediately upon arriving home, and passed away within a few minutes.
"Matties," as she was familiarly known, was a vlaued member of the household of her niece, Mrs. Oscar Hensel, and family who live a short north pf Edelstein, and was dearly loved by the Hensel children, martha Ann and John, and showered them with devoted care in return. To this family the deepest sympathy of the community is extended.
While Miss Shane will be greatly missed in the home, her death is leaving a place in the Edelstein Congregational Church circle that only her memory can fill. She was an earnest and willing worker, capable in any office given her, and her true Christian spirit and love for her bible made her an inspiration to others. She held the office of president of the ladies Aid Society of that church for several years and was chaplain of the society at her death. She had also been a beloved superintendent of the church school the past five years and teacher of the bible class. It was there her greatest work was done, as it was her one ambition to make the church school one of the best, and only serious illness prevented her regular attendance. She was looking forward to resuming her duties next Sunday.
Two days before her death she observed her 55th birthday anniversary and was remembered with cards of greeting from members of the school, for which a card of appreciation from her was read at the session last Sunday morning.
Miss Shane was the youngest daughter of the late james and MArtha Shane and spent her entire kife in the Hallock Township except a few years she and her mother lived in Chillicothe following the death of her father.
Upon the death of her mother she came to make her home with a niece, who had been reared in her grandparents home from a small child when her own mother, Mrs. Lydia Shane Potter, died.
Miss Shane leaves one sister, Mrs. Anna Brooks of Currie, Minn.; six brothers, David of Lawn Ridge, Charles of Mossville, Ben of Pipestone, Minn.; Joseph of Dunlap, Eugene of Chillicothe, and Ensley. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews and more distant relatives and a multitude of friends.
Funeral services were held in the church she loved Wednesday afternoon and she was laid to rest beside her parents in Prospect Cemetery near Dunlap.

BOROUGH LOSES PIONEER RESIDENT

Mr. and Mrs. D.E. Parker to Remove to Huntingdon County

Ending a sojourn of over a third of a century in Juniata, Mr. and Mrs. D.E. Parker propose to remove their household to Alexandria, in Huntingdon county and their residence at 703 Sixth avenue, has been leased to Dr. William R. Brewer, of Tyrone, who will locate here to practice medicine. Just when the removal will occur is not definite, but Mr. Parker is contemplating the purchase of a home in Alexandria and the change will likely occur before October 15-the date that Mr. Brewer takes possession of the commodious dwelling in which the well-known Juniatian has resided during the past eighteen years.
Mr. Parker has had a personal part in every step of Juniata's development since his removal here from Altoona on August 12, 1890 with his wife and two little daughters, occupying a home that he had built on Third Avenue near Ninth street in the thinly settled village. His interest in the hamlet about which the name Bellview still lingered began, however, two years earlier, in 1888, when he became a member of the firm of Kline, Parker and company, that erected and operated a planing mill that was for three years located near the present site of WU office in the P.R.R. classification yard.
