Lester Forest TEMPLE3912,69420 was born on 23 March 1906 in Garrard Co., KY.148,17320,69422 He appeared in the census in January 1920 in Buckeye, Garrard, KY.69422 He lived RFD # 2 in Butler, Pendleton, KY on 16 October 1940.17320 Lester died on 4 June 1980 at the age of 74 in Vista, San Diego, CA.148,3912,111240 Buried in Lebanon Cemetery, Lebanon, OH. He was possibly enumerated as Lester F. Higdon in 1910, in Rock Creek, Grayson, KY, though he was given as a son and fit in the normal sequence of children. The same reasoning holds true for Lester F. Oaks, in Lancaster, Garrard, KY in 1910. His brother, Grover, had been adopted in Garrard County, so the latter may be he. If, however, the identification of Verna as his sister holds up, he could also have been in Grayson County. Parents: Findley Worth (Worth) TEMPLE-31811 and Mary Ann ROSS-31812.

Spouse: Orine RUNYON-31817. Orine RUNYON and Lester Forest TEMPLE were married.


Lester G. TEMPLE was born on 4 September 1943.111241,111242 Cemetery records give the date in 1942, but SSDI gives 1943.

He may be the son of Lester and Virginia (Tuscano) Temple. Possibly related to Billy Ray Temple based on burial location.


Lester George TEMPLE Jr. was born on 23 February 1935 in Syracuse, Onondaga, NY.9635,21418,111243 He appeared in the census in April 1940 in De Witt, Onondaga, NY.9635 He lived in Brewerton, Onondaga, NY in 2003.45033 Lester died on 12 May 2022 at the age of 87 in Union Co., NC.111244 Middle initial is assumed to be George since he was given in the NY state birth index as a Junior. Parents: Lester George (Lester) TEMPLE Sr.-5124 and Lois Marion (Marion) HOUSE-5125.


Lester George (Lester) TEMPLE was born on 28 January 1888 in Newbury, Orange, VT.148,1503,18605,18607,37920,63908,111245,111246,111247,111248 He appeared in the census in June 1900 in Manchester, Hillsborough, NH.37920 In 1912 he was a chef in Hillsborough, Hillsborough, NH.1503,63907 In 1917 Lester was a salesman in Manchester, Hillsborough, NH.63908 He served in the military in 1918.111245 Served as a private in the Army from 15 May 1918 to 9 Dec 1918. In April 1930 he was an odd job painter in Meredith, Belknap, NH.18607 He and Frances, plus Pauline, were living with his sister Flora's family. In April 1940 Lester was a laborer in Holderness, Grafton, NH.18605 In 1942 he was a painter in East Holderness, Grafton, NH.111246 He lived in Long Beach, Los Angeles, CA in 1966.111247 Lester died on 23 June 1966 at the age of 78 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA.148,111245,111247 Buried in Ft. Rosecrans National Cemetery, Section A-A, Site 2609. Middle initial is given as C in 1900. He gave his middle name as George in the WWII draft registration and when he married Frances Bubier, but is given with Goodwin as a middle name at times (apparently after his mother's name). His age seems a bit late for him to be the son of Orrin Chase and Mary Elizabeth (Goodwin) Temple, but not for him to have been a grandson. However, his marriage records list him as their son.

Another odd thing is that he said that Frances Temple would always know of his location when he registered for the draft, and she was living at the same address as he in 1942. That looks very much as though Mabel Frances did not divorce him, or that he had a daughter named Frances, as Frances Bubier and he did not marry until a year later.

In fact, there is something especially odd about the timing and number of his marriage to Frances Margaret Bubier (see the note on that marriage). Either way, there is something wrong with the family as presented here. Part of the key may be the records with his middle name of George, as there was a Lester George Temple in NY, born about 13 years after this person.

I wonder if he is actually a grandson, in or out of wedlock. I also suspect there was some issue with his marriage, or lack thereof, to Frances Bubier that led to the 1943 scramble to document a marriage, in those days possibly for the sake of the children. The official documentation makes her a third wife, but then there are those kids who show up nearly 20 years earlier.

Not enumerated as a Temple in 1920. Parents: Orvin Chase TEMPLE-6213 and Mary Elizabeth (Elizabeth) GOODWIN-6422.

Spouse: Mabel Frances (Mabel) PATTEN-26855.

Spouse: Frances Margaret BUBIER-83754. Frances Margaret BUBIER and Lester George (Lester) TEMPLE were married on 4 June 1943 in Manchester, Hillsborough, NH.14578 She and Lester were enumerated as husband and wife in 1940. However, their marriage license and marriage certificate is most unusual. It is marked with the caveat "The within license is issued by special order of Thomas C. Hill, Esq., Judge of Probate for Belknap County." Why a probate judge should demand such a thing is not understood - but to do so in 1943 is really confusing, since Frances was supposedly the mother of three children between 1924 and 1933. The marriage license said that this was Lester's third, but Frances' first marriage (at age 41). Children were: Pauline Vivian TEMPLE-83757, Frederick Alan TEMPLE-83755, Richard Grover TEMPLE-83756.

Lester died on 9 January 1997 at the age of 90 in Coal Twp., Northumberland, PA.111290,111292 Not enumerated with family in 1920. Not mentioned in his brother Joy Edward's obituary as a survivor in 1930, although their brother Francis was listed twice in the survivors - once at home and once living on Ash Street in Danville.
There are several Lester Temples born around the same time in PA, and one (son of Helen Marather and Lester's cousin) had a mother from Montour Co., PA. Several of his relatives were also from Danville in Montour County. However, it is possible that he might be the son of Henry Seward Temple. Part of the problem is that the son of William Henry Temple, who informed his father's death certificate, gave his name as Lester S. Temple, though he had an address in Danville, PA. This same person gave his name as Lester Smith Temple when he married Edna May Carter in Danville.
