William Teal was born before Fanny married James Teal, and his birth is therefore registered as William Crowther. It was on 21 Nov 1830 at the Steep Lane Baptist Chapel, to Fanny Crowther. I have not yet identified his immigration record to the US and to Rochester NY, excpet that it was before 1865.
He seems to have had only one child, Frank C Teal b. 1865 Rochester, and I strongly suspect the middle name of this child was Crowther: can you confirm that?
He also seems to have died before the 1900 US census, when Alice and Frank are in Detroit, but I have no date.
Frank C Teal married twice, but I have no name for the first wife, with whom he had two daughters, Josephine and Theodora. With his second wife Belle from Detroit he had a son Frank C Teal Jnr born 1922. This man may still be alive, but so far I have found little trace of him.
