Interesting tidbit: I looked up Teackle Wallace - his name was Severn Teackle Wallis, and I found this on Wikipedia (I know, I know, not reliable for deep facts): "One of his colleagues imprisoned with him in the 1860s, Henry Mactier Warfield, named his fifth son Teackle Wallis Warfield. He in turn in 1896 named his daughter Bessie Wallis Warfield. She later became famous as Wallis Simpson, Duchess of Windsor."
