Steel is not a proper clan in itself, but a smaller "sept" - a small family which is allied to and seeks protection from a larger and more powerful clan.
One of my maternal 4x Gt grandmas had this maiden name. It is related to the Clan Gordon.

The following link shows how this name (with many others) is included as a Gordon Sept -- a surname adopted in the changeover from the Gael to the English naming system by the allied and dependent families of the main family -- the Gordons. http://www.houseofgordonva.com/Septs.html
