Roger Whitehead at [email protected] says in an email dated 24 Apr 2012 Jemima was a daughter of Benjamin Whitehead and thus sister to William & Daniel Whitehead. We questioned him and he replied:
Hi David
Thanks for keeping me in the loop re Whitehead and Brick Street Cemetery.
After your latest email I have been doing a little research and found there were two people named Jemima Teeple in Ontario at the same time.
In the 1851 Census a Jemima Teeple is listed in Malahide, Elgin County age 55 born NJ living with William B Teeple age 65 a farmer born in NB. Two children Lydia (23) and Stephen (22) were still with them.
Also in the 1851 Census a Jemima (spelt Jamima) is listed in Westminster Middlesex County age 55 born US living with Edward Teeple age 57 a blacksmith born in NS. Four children James (26), Aaron (23), Benjamin (21) and Helen (12) were still at home.
With this "duplication" it is easy to see how the two families can be confused.
Several Michigan censuses state the mother of those Teeples who went to Michigan was born NY.
The Michigan marriage of Benjamin Teeple to his brother Aaron's widow shows their mother's maiden name was Whitehead.

My research:
Hi
I've done some research into the Jemima Teeples. William Bullard Teeple and Edward Manning Teeple were brothers. Both married Jemimas. William married Jemima Leek and lived in Elgin, and Edward married Jemima Whitehead and lived in Middlesex. It is still not clear who Jemima Whitehead's parents were. If her father was Benjamin, which I strongly suspect, then she is a sister of William and Daniel and that connects all the Whiteheads at BSC. I found someone on Ancestry who has researched the Whiteheads of Middlesex. I have sent an email and hope she can help us. [no reply as of Oct 2012]

3. | Delial Brock Teeple* (2.Jemima2, 1.Silas1) was born in Apr 1816 in Upper Canada; died on 15 Nov 1892. Notes:
named after Isaac Brock's brother [DWT]. Brock had several brothers, but the one referred to is Daniel De Lisle Brock: Daniel De Lisle was born on December 10th, 1762. In 1795 he was elected a jurat [* See Below] of the royal court. He went to London in connection with trade and other ancient privileges of the island. Afterwards he assumed the very influential position of lieutenant-bailiff or chief magistrate of Guernsey. He was responsible for building Elizabeth College which today is a very popular boys' school.
De Lisle was Isaac's mother's maiden name. Coming from the Channel Islands, the French name is not surprising.
