A number of hubby's Steiner ancestors are buried in historic
Old Mission Cemetery,
Upper Sandusky, Ohio. Among them are 7 of the 9 children of Edward George
Steiner (1830-1880) and Elizabeth
Rinehart (1834-1905), my husband's maternal great-grandparents.
Above, the headstones for hubby's grandmother and five of her siblings:
- Orville J. Steiner (1856-1936)
- Adaline "Addie" Steiner (1859-1879)
- Etta Blanche Steiner Rhuark (1864-1956)
- Minnie Estella Steiner Halbedel (1868-1947)
- Carrie Eileen Steiner Traxler (1870-1963)
- Floyda Mabel Steiner McClure (1878-1948) - Grandma Floyda
Below, the unusual footstone in Mission Cemetery for the seventh Steiner buried in Old Mission, hubby's great aunt, Margaret Mary Steiner
Post (1861-1913), who married a painter.

The two eldest children of Edward & Elizabeth Steiner are buried elsewhere. Their first-born's stone, marked "Infant son of Steiner, October 23, 1852," is in Oceola Cemetery #2, Crawford County, Ohio.
Their first daughter, Elveretta (1854-1855), is also buried in Oceola Cemetery #2, a small cemetery that hubby and I were able to visit and photograph only because a kind Find A Grave volunteer provided very detailed directions. Thank you!
