  JOHN T. STEINER, Merchant and Banker, Greenville, son of Joseph and Margaret
(Camp) Steiner, was born November 27, 1869, in Butler County, this State. From
the common schools of Greenville, at the age of sixteen years, he entered
Vanderbilt University, where he remained two years, and returned to Greenville
and engaged with his father in the Greenville Bank, in the capacity of runner.
From this initial step he rose rapidly to proficiency in the various departments
of the banking business, and of late years has been the controlling element in
the management of that institution. He is a member of the firms of Steiner &
Sons, bankers; Steiner Bros. & Co., general merchants; J. H. Steiner & Co.,
hardware dealers; and the Steiner Hardware Company, the latter institution being
at Decatur, Ala.

  Mr. Steiner, in addition to his various enterprises, takes an active interest
in politics, and is one of the solid workers of the Democratic party.

  He represented his party from Greenville as delegate to the convention that
nominated Governor Seay in 1886, and afterward worked faithfully in the interest
of the ticket. He is a member of the order of the Knights of Pythias. Knights of
Honor, the American Legion of Honor, and is a lieutenant in the Greenville Light
Guards.

  J. T. Steiner was married in July, 1881, to Miss Annie Dunklin, the
accomplished daughter of J. H. Dunklin, of Greenville, and has had born to him
three children: John, Lucile and Edith.
