ღ4th G-Grandfatherღ
War of 1812 Veteran
TAP THE PHOTOS AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CLEARLY READ THE INFORMATION CONCERNING GRANDPA GEORGE AND THE STEINBERGER LINAGE. REGISTERED WITH THE DAUGHTER's of the AMERICAN REVOLUTION (DAR).
NOTE: There was a transcription error in Alice Steinberger's letter. The death date of George was transcribed as the death date of Nancy. She died within a year of George. His death seems to have occur before he was recorded on any census in Iowa. The letter was the first communication concerning the documented information by Constance and was not without errors.
Thank You for visiting our dear beloved Grandfather George. Your visits mean so much to us. God bless.
༺⊰❁ George Washington "Steinberger" Steenbarger was the son of John Isaiah and Elizabeth Nauman Steinberger, born December 26, 1780 in Shenandoah County, Virginia. He married Nancy Lockard "Steinberger" Steenbarger. (George was named after Pres. George Washington, the father of our free country. This is why the second child of John and his first wife carries John's first name and the maiden name of Elizabeth Nauman the mother. This was told to us by Ralph and Alice Steinberger.)
Known children of George and Nancy Lockard Steenbarger (Steinberger):
1) Elias Madison "Steinberger" Steenbarger, born 1803, Shenandoah County, Virginia; death in 1847, Hardin County, Iowa. Married Emily Lockard.
2) Isaac Steinberger, born 1808 in Champaign County around the Mad River Twp, Ohio; death September 4, 1868, Nettle Creek area of the Mad River, Champaign County, Ohio. Buried in the Nettle Creek Cemetery. Married Mariah Ward.
3) Willis Steenbarger (Steinberger), born August 27, 1810, Champaign County, Ohio; death January 1, 1895 (a few days before the death of William Lockard), Hardin County, Iowa. He is listed as a member of the G.A.R. Grand Army of the Republic. A political organization of the Civil War Union Army Soldiers.
4) Stephen "Steve" Steenbarger (Steinberger), born in the year June 6, 1812, Ohio; death occured December 12, 1888 in Erie, Neosho County, Kansas. Married Lucinda Smith Steinberger.
5) Elizabeth Steenbarger (Steinberger) Lockard, born February 24, 1817, Champaign County, Ohio; death November 19, 1890, Hardin County, Iowa. Wife to William Lockard, who was the son of Isaac and Sarah Miles Lockart, born March 24, 1814, Williamsport, Virginia; death January 16, 1895, Hardin County, Iowa.
6) Harrison Steenbarger (Steinberger), born November 5, 1825, Champaign County, Ohio; death September 11, 1878, Hardin County, Iowa. Married Ann.
Aden Steinberger, born December 26, 1849; death April 14, 1942, Champaign County, Ohio. Aden fell the three stories of the Steinberger Mill, from top to bottom, when a child, but survived to live to the old age of 93. Aden is not the son of George and Nancy as so many in our family line have been led to believe. He was a life long member of the Mad River Twp. Community therefore he cannot be their son as George and Nancy moved out to Iowa in 1857 and both passed in 1859. He is the son of John and Susan Crabill Steinberger. Aden married Catherine Ward, daughter of Gideon and Melinda Smith Ward. (Also, Nancy again would have given birth to a child at 70 years old. Not possible then.)
In 1804 George moved his family to Champaign County, Ohio to live along the Mad River in the Nettle Creek area. George helped his brother John Nauman Steinberger in the building of the historic Steinberger Mill which stood for 130 years at the place where State Route 55 crosses over the Mad River in the Champaign County, Ohio. The future beckoned George to Iowa to continue forging out our great nation along side of his dear Nancy. Their daughter Elizabeth had already made the trek with her husband William Lockard. So George and Nancy both remained in Ohio until 1857 at which time they did move to Union, Hardin County, Iowa, taking with them several of their family members, exactly who I do not know at this time. George and Nancy were there only a short time before they passed. He is believed to be buried with his wife. They died only a short time apart, the headstone having been prepared for George, but with Nancy's sudden and unexpected death by flux they buried her and added her name to the headstone. She died soon after George died and was then buried there with George. This is how I believe it happened and how I was told by my Grandma Alice Steinberger which was said to have been registered by Constance Steinberger Bair with the DAR when she joined and they examined the family linage to see if it was correct. If there are legal documents that prove otherwise please pass them on. PLEASE NOTE in the references listed below for the link of the Iowa Hardin Co. Census 1856. There is absolutely no mention of Nancy wife of George in the household of any Lockards or in the household of Harrison Steenbarger, the only Steenbarger family listed at that time. Therefore, I believe the information and papers given by Constance Steinberger Bair to the DAR is accurate information. She said when we found where Nancy was buried in Iowa we would find where George was resting as well since they died so close together. Thanks to Find A Grave we have found where Nancy is buried and now know where George is also resting.
May you rest in the loving peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, dear GGGG-Grandfather George.
