Margaret Vance Jeffries was born in 1778, in Virginia. She was married to John Steen, son of William Steen and Agnes Nancy Lusk Steen. Together, John and Margaret had the following children:
1) Cyrena Steen
2) Dorcas Steen
3) Eliza Steen
4) Lucretia Steen
5) Mary Ann "Polly"Steen
6) William H. (Hays or Hutchinson?) Steen (married Elizabeth Lusk (mentioned in father John's will)
7) John Vance Steen (mentioned in father John's will)
8) Sarah Steen
9) Nancy Steen (mentioned in father John's will)
10) Rachel Steen (mentioned in father John's will)
11) Lucinda Miles Souvina (Steen) Tate (mentioned in father John's will)
12) Margaret (Steen) Tate (mentioned in father John's will)
Note: There is a South Carolina marriage record for "Margaret Vance" b. 1778 marrying John Steen b. 1774. (Name Jeffries not mentioned.) There are Vance and Jeffries families both in Union Co., SC, at the time. Moses Steen's book, The Steen Family in Europe and America, states John married a "Miss Jeffries". After much discussion, her descendants believe the Moses Steen book was in error, i.e., that she was not a Jeffries. (Thank you to Doug Carter for this clarification. I had previously listed her maiden name as Jeffries with middle name of Vance, and have now changed her maiden name to Vance.) I appreciate receiving any updates or corrections. --DSB
