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
