J. FRANK TEEPLE, one of Akron's well known business men, who does a large real estate and collection business, with offices in the Walsh Block, was born in Franklin Township, Summit County, Ohio, in 1866, and is a son of Aaron Teeple, who was a substantial citizen of that section.
     J. Frank Teeple was mainly educated in a select school at Copley, and this was supplemented by a business course under O. S. Warner, after which he became interested in the grocery line, in which he continued for sixteen years, during nine of these for other parties and seven years for himself.  After selling out his grocery interests, Mr. Teeple started a collection agency and also went into the real estate business, having a valuable allotment on West Market Street.  He handles a considerable amount of his own property, and among his fellow citizens is considered a man of his word and of most excellent business judgment.
     In February, 1892, Mr. Teeple was married to Minnie M. Howes.  He is a first-class citizen and takes an active part in all local affairs, lending his influence in support of public-spirited measures on all occasions.  He is a Knight of Pythias and a member of the Modern Woodmen.
