Extract

Mr. Teall, who was born on January 5, 1849, in the Oolitic region of the Cotteswolds, at Northleach, a small market town on the Fosse Way between Cirencester and Stow-on-the-Wold, was the only child of Jethro and Mary Teall (née Hathaway). His father inherited some landed property in East Kent, and resided after his marriage for about two months at Sandwich, where he died in 1848 of some epidemic that was raging in the place. Mrs. Teall then returned to her relations at Northleach, where her son was born.
