I know there was a Jules Levy, Jr., but I don't know anything about full
brothers, half-brothers, step-brothers, etc.
I believe Rowland and Tearle married about 1920. He was married to
someone else, there's information on line about catching them in a hotel room, he
was in a dressing gown, he claimed he always rehearsed in a dressing gown;
and so on.

So Conway Tearle was the brother of Jules Levy, Jr?
I wonder if Adele ever had a chance to jam with her brother-in-law, who
was a great player. Or perhaps Jules had passed before Adele married his
brother.
Thanks for posting the interesting info!!
Taylor
