Daniel Theodore and his first wife made their home in York Co., South Carolina on land that later became part of a large state park system. After the death of Lavinia and his remarriage, he and his new bride moved to the Steele Creek community of Mecklenburg Co., North Carolina.

Apparently Daniel Theodore soon established himself as one of the leaders in the Steele Creek Community. Among other things, he was an Elder in the Steele Creek Church. He was said, by his granddaughter, to be a very devoted Christian. A story was printed in the Charlotte (N. C.) Observer in July 1943, stating that there was a long drought in the area and the Church Elders decided to meet and pray for rain. The Steele Creek Church was on a sloping hill, and as Daniel Theodore approached several of the Elders seated on the church steps, saw that he was carrying an umbrella. They jested to him, "what are you doing with the umbrella?" He replied, "we came to pray for rain, didn't we, and I believe that we will get it."

On his way home after the prayer meeting there was a regular gully washer of a rain, and it went down in history as Daniel Theodore Pegram's rain. The article was published forty two years after Daniel Theodore's death, so the story must have had some validity to have survived for so long.

Religious training in the days of Daniel Theodore was not taken lightly. His granddaughter, Frances Pegram Weaver, related that her father, John Breckenridge Pegram, told her of having to keep the Sabbath Day Holy. No shoes could be polished, no nuts cracked, only absolutely necessary activities were allowed.
