James Billings Steele, the son of Revolutionary War patriot James Steele and his wife Mary Nevett Steele, resided at "Eldon" in Dorchester County, Maryland. The estate at this time comprised over 3,000 acres. He married twice, first to Milcah Gale and second to the daughter of Robert Goldsborough, Sarah Yerbury Goldsborough.

The burial of James Billings Steele is not confirmed. Records of the Great Choptank Parish list him as buried at Christ Episcopal Church, Cambridge, MD. But there is no headstone currently in place that identifies his grave. His parents are buried in St. Anne's Cemetery in Annapolis, Maryland. His wives are buried in Christ Episcopal Church Cemetery in Cambridge, Maryland. So, it is likely that James Billings Steele is indeed buried near them.
