I can add the following but am not sure if you will find a conection?/but it is worth making a note of!!
Family search
I found the marriage of a:
JAMES J TEESE to MARTHA CHAMBERS,event marriage date 19/2/1861 at Conwall,Donegal,lists father has James Teese
+==================
Irish index registers-1845-1958
WILLIAM TEESE ,born 1813 died 1879,London
==========================
with regards to a WILLIAM TEESE b c 1815 Donegal Ireland,I have possibly found the birth of a child,JAMES FREDERICK TEESE born Donegal 24/12/1838,and a marriage of this James to EMILY A KNIGHT
*******But am not sure if the above is connected to you has the only refrence to E.A.Knight is with regards to a birth/death in Australia??
