Joseph was born in 1898. He was the son of Roscoe Teeple and Isabella Clazie.
The 1901 Canada census showed the Teeple family at Greenock Township, Ontario.
The 1911 Canada census at Saugeen Township showed the family split onto to pages, with some names shown as "Tepple" and others on the next page as "Tuple".
First page: "Rosco Tepple", 48; "Isabel Tepple", 47; "William J. Tepple", 19; "James Tepple", 17.
Next page: "Macella Tuple", 15; "Joseph Tuple", 13; "Chester Tuple", 10; "Roy Tuple", 5.
Clearly, all of these were the Teeple family! Bad handwriting - and bad spelling, all around.
Joseph went west. He was found in the 1916 census at Birsie, Manitoba. In 1917, he enlisted in the Canadian Expeditionary Force in France. His address at that time was Foxwarren, Manitoba. In 1921 at Foxwarren, he married Lilly Marie Woods (her name also written "Lillie".)
Joseph passed away about 1987 at or near Edmonton, Alberta and was buried there.
