1812 in Centre County, Pennsylvania. He served in the military in 1861/62 in
Company K, 56th Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He died on 13 Dec 1889 in
Meigs County, Ohio. He was buried in Wellston, Jackson County, Ohio - Ridgewood
Cem.. 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, Ohio. Census reports list him as a
laborer in Elizabeth Township in 1850, and as a collier in Milton Township, Jackson
Co., Ohio 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,
Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He received a medical discharge on 9/6/1862 at Columbus,
Ohio. The reason given for the medical discharge is "Eczema". His
address on the discharge was Reeds Mills, Vinton Co., Ohio. 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
Roderick STEELE(60) was born on 6
May 1877 in McArthur, Vinton Co, Ohio. He died on 22 Sep 1946 in Huntington,
Cabell County, West Virginia. He was buried in Huntington, Cabell County, West
Virginia - Woodmere Abbey Cem.. OBIT (Huntington Herald Dispatch, September
23, 1946): Robert Roderick Steele, 69, who with a brother established what was
said to have been Huntington's first funeral home more than 30 years ago, died
last night about 6:45 p.m. in an ambulance while en route to a hospital after
being stricken ill at his hone on Pea Ridge Road. A physician attributed death
to a heart attack. Mr. Steele had conducted a funeral yesterday afternoon and
afterward left the funeral home and went home. While eating dinner he arose from
the table, complaining of feeling ill. He walked into the living room and collapsed.
A Steele Funeral Home ambulance was summoned to take him to the hospital, but
he died in the arms of Ray Black, one of his employees, before the ambulance
reached the hospital. Friends said Mr. Steele had been in ill health for some
time, but did not complain until recently. He was born at McArthur 0. on May
6, 1877. His father was a teacher and young Robert Steele attended the public
schools in that area and later studied at a business college. His first position
in his chosen profession was with the Rollins Funeral Home at Rutland, O., which
was operated in connection with a harness shop. Later he went on the road as
a salesman for the Durfee Embalming Fluid Co. of Grand Rapids Mich. He went to
Charleston as embalmer for P. A. Simpson and in 1911 cane to Huntington to join
I. H. H. Hohwade Son, who also operated a furniture store. Three years later
hr. Steele entered the profession for himself with the establishment on Eleventh
Street, and about 1915 he and his brother, the late Ervin D. Steele, operating
as Steele Brothers, opened what was reported to have been Huntington's first
funeral home at 1133 Third Avenue. Shortly thereafter, they purchased the B.
T. Davis residence at 1128 Third Avenue and moved their funeral home there. In
1937 they moved to the present location in the F. B. Enslow property at 1307
Third Avenue. After the death of James E. Johnston, who operated the Johnston
Undertaking Co. on downtown Fourth Avenue, Mr. Steele purchased that business
and combined it with his own. At the time of his death, Mr. Steele was the sole
owner of the mortuary bearing his name, having bought the interest of Ervin Steele,
who died four months ago yesterday. Mr. Steele was for many years a member of
Johnson Memorial Church and served on the board of stewards and as a trustee.
He was a member of the Rotary and 6uyandot Clubs, the Elks lodge, Woodmen of
the World and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. A 32nd degree Mason, he also
was affiliated with the York Rite and the Shrine. He was prominent in state and
national organizations of his profession. Mr. Steele was a candidate for the
Republican nomination for sheriff of Cabell County in 1944. Miss Marguerite McClain,
a niece of Mr. Steele and secretary at the funeral home, was in Cincinnati en
route to a convention in Chicago when word of Mr. Steele's death reached her,
and she made arrangements to return immediately to Huntington with James Green,
a student at Cincinnati. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Warren A. Green. His father
has been associated with the funeral home and his mother was a niece of Mr. Steele.
Surviving Mr. Steele are the widow, the former Miss Dora Ethel Hooper of Rutland,
to who he was married in 1899; two daughters, Mrs. Leonard Riggleman of Charleston,
wife of the president of Morris Harvey College who was the forcer Miss Pauline
Steele, and Mrs. Thomas Bartlett, Jr., of Marlin Tex., the forcer Miss Anna Byrne
Steele, a sister, Mrs. Rosa Braley of Wellston, 0.; a brother, D. E. S. Steele
of Oklahoma, and three grandchildren, Roberta Riggleman of Charleston and Nancy
and Martha Bartlett of Marlin. The body was taken to the funeral home. Arrangements
for services had not been completed last night, but plans were made to entomb
the body in a crypt in Woodmere Abbey. Parents: Jasper
