Email received: August 4, 2004
I just stumbled upon your website while looking for a Stone in
Millville, NJ (via google search) and wondered if you had my great aunt
by marriage, Margaret Hollingsworth Steele.
You surely did! That was some classy lady, who kept a beautiful home
full of nice dishes and furniture. And Carlton was impressively tall
for his time (chesty, too, not just lanky-tall). When I get near a
scanner I will send you a later-life photo of either just her, or the
couple, whichever you prefer.
They are buried in Mount Pleasant, Millville NJ, but lived most of
their married lives in Brooklawn, NJ. Itâs too bad they never had
any children.
Who supplied those great teen-years photos of Margaret? She suffered
through cancer and other problems in her old age, so it was nice to see
her there, so young.
W. Carlton was my grandmotherâs only brother. I will get his and
Margaretâs actual birth and death dates soon.
Hi: This is the only other picture I have of Margaret. This was taken
in Millville, New Jersey in 1927. When you tell me which year she was
born I can then determine how old she was in this picture.
Margaret's father was the man in the middle with the straw hat and
glasses, Samuel William Hollingsworth. Sam was born in Manchester,
England and for many years I thought our family was English, until
recently when I discovered his grandfather was actually born in
Ballycanew, Ireland. This was proven by army enlistment documents from
1827.
I am not sure, but I think, Margaret's mother must have been deceased
in 1927 or she was taking the picture. I can identify all the ladies in
the photo so I know she isn't in the picture. Margaret looks to be
about 12-13 in the photo so I would place her birth year at about
1915. Thanks for getting in touch with me and I hope to hear from you
soon. Tom
Margaret had courted some "well off" men before Carlton, but
one got in trouble (shady money of some type) so Carlton occasionally
teased her that she was better off with someone poor but honest. Quote
from email by Dolores Langley Soberg She goes on to say:
Dad (age 81) recalls Carlton living with him and his parents until he
got married, yet dad can't recall the wedding. My parents have
Margaret's dining room furniture, to this day, and my first car was
their's, which Carlton willed to Dad. DLS
Margaret was showned in the 1920 census as living in a Millville
boarding house and working as a bookkeeper. Her father Samuel was also
living in a boarding house at the same time. |

Margaret married William "Carlton"
Steele son of William Steele and Mary Horton. William was born in
1897. He died on 1 Oct 1966 in 210 New Jersey Ave, Brooklawn, N.J.. He
was buried in Mt Pleasant Cemetery, Millville, N.J..
Carlton was the only son of William Steele (1853-1925) and Mary Horton
who grew to adulthood. His "silent" first name was William,
and I am not sure where Carlton came from.
Carlton died less than a month after Margaret, whom he regarded like a
queen and had "nursed" through extremely trying health
challenges. I recall how he refused an autopsy, commenting that
"she's been cut ENOUGH!" The family believes he died
willingly, possibly by not eating right nor taking his prescriptions.
Carlton was retired from the New York Shipbuilding Company.
The obit of W. Carlton Steele is dated 10-1-66, and it says he died
"this morning." Actually, my dad went up from Millville to
check on him and he was dead on the floor, upstairs. Here it is,
verbatim:
-----------------------------
W. Carlton Steele, 70, of 210 New Jersey Ave., Brooklawn, died suddenly
at his home this morning. He was retired from the New York Shipbuilding
Co.
Mr. Steele's wife, Margaret, preceded him in death a month ago. The
deceased was a member of Shekinah Lodge 58, F. and A.M.
He is survived by a sister, Mrs. Emma Langley, Millville; four nephews,
Norman Langley and Robert S. Langley, both of Millville, William S.
Langley, Fresno, Calif., and Charles W. Langley, Boulder City, Col.
(error: Col. should be Nev.)
The funeral will be held on Tuesday at 2 p.m. from Rocap-Shannon
Memorial Funeral Home with the Rev. Russell Shivers officiating. Burial
will be in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. Masonic services and viewing will be
held at the funeral home Monday evening at 7 p.m.
-----------------
I was in my first year of college and did not attend the funeral, but
clearly recall the viewing since it was the first time I saw Masons
"do their thing."
"He is survived by a sister, Mrs. Emma Langley, Millville; four
nephews, Norman Langley and Robert S. Langley, both of Millville,
William S. Langley, Fresno, Calif., and Charles W. Langley, Boulder
City, Col. (error: Col. should be Nev.)"
Carlton willed the Brooklawn row house to my uncle Norman, his oldest
nephew, with my dad and the 2 other nephews getting some modest cash
and furnishings. |

Another letter from Thomas Nicholas Hollingworth Sr. to Thomas
Nicholas Hollingsworth Jr.
Dated Sept 14, 1905 7:30 AM, Millville, New Jersey, Addressed to:
Thos N Hollingsworth, Baltimore, Md, Westport
The top portion of the first page has been torn away, but goes on to
say:
your welcome letter this moment to hand and I am very glad to hear
of you all being well and that you start to work next Monday. Yes it is
a very long stop and it is very hard for those who have familys to be
idel so long as the expenses are always the same work or no work and it
requires a man with such grave cares to be careful as to how he lives
and how he spends.
I am glad to hear of you getting the money all right also to hear
that my daughter Lucy is doing well and in good health. Also glad to
hear that your daughter Frances is improving and hope and pray that she
may grain stronger every day. And I am glad to hear of my son James and
his wife been well. Now Thomas I know daughter (sic) by this time you
have seen your sister Martha who is now trying to better her condition
in a new place of work and to make a new home for herself.
I have talked the matter over with Martha and did advise her what to
do and I hope that you will render to her all the help you can as I am
very anxious to see Luch and her do well and as long as they try to get
ahead I shall give to them proper assistance and help them in every
way.
I should like very much to impress upon your mind that I hold no
hard feelings against Lucy or Martha the past as you and I have them
just as good as ever. I am hoping you as their Brother will do the
same. We are all on the same path that mother has passed through and it
behoves us all to do the best we can for each other. You can read this
letter to James and I will close with god's blessings upon you all.
Father
Directions to approximate location of Hollingsworth graves in Mt
Olivet Cemetery, Baltimore. When you go in the stone entrance, follow
the road to the right until it starts to bend to the left. The graves
have flat stone markers and are not too far from the road, maybe 30
feet. (Been years I regret to say since I have been there. Tom) I had
visited many, many times over the years and each time had a difficult
time finding the graves.
Thomas married Elizabeth Shimp Diament

Diament and Anna M. Miller on 2 Aug 1899 in Millville, New Jersey.

[scrapbook] was born on 12 Jun 1903 in
Westport, Baltimore, Maryland. She died on 17 Jun 1957 in Baltimore,
Maryland. She was buried in Mt Olivet Cemetery, Frederick Rd,
Baltimore.
I was told she fell down a flight of steps and died. Francis must have
had a very sad life, not sure if a childhood illness or birth defect,
but she suffered from a disabilitating illness that effected her
nervous system from her early childhood.
Francis did marry, her husband's name is not known to me because my
father did not take me around to see her. She and her husband lived in
the neighborhood of Holland Street Market, on the west side of
Baltimore City. I understand her sisters Ruth and Ella did do whatever
they could to help her through the years, but as far as I know my
father did very little for his sister Francis. So sad. |
