James Clarence (Clarence) TEMPLES10988 was born on 28 January 1912 in Johnston, Edgefield, SC.22719,22722,70424,70426,70427 Cemetery records put the date in 1912, but his draft registration put it in 1911. He appeared in the census in January 1920 in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.22722 In April 1930 he was a farm laborer in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.22719 In April 1940 James was a drug store salesman in Altavista, Campbell, VA.70425,70426 In October 1940 he was an employee of Patterson Drug Company in Altavista, Campbell, VA.70427 He died on 16 June 1969 at the age of 57 in Altavista, Campbell, VA.23573,70424,131186 Died at home of a coronary occlusion due to coronary heart disease. Buried in Green Hill Cemetery, Altavista, VA. Temple People, Vol. II, identified him as the Clarence Temples b 1902, d 1945 in Edgefield Co., SC. However, this does not match the census records or his parents' marriage, so I believe that information was about the son of Shaw and Patience Temples of Aiken Co., SC. Appears without the terminal S in 1940. Parents: James Hansford (James) TEMPLES Jr.-34502 and Bertha Mae CLARK-34503.

He claimed his parents were from (US) and FL (mother). Using that claim, and the same claim by Edward F. Temples in 1920 when they lived next door to each other, he is placed as the sibling of Edward.

I assume that he is related to Taylor and the son of Taylor based on timing and location, and because he is enumerated on the farm adjacent to Taylor and Lizzie Temples in 1920. He is between them and Edward F. Temples in 1920. He may alternatively be related to Thomas L. Temples, brother of Taylor, who lived very close by in 1920.

James Edward TEMPLES131206 was born on 5 March 1952 in Warren Co., KY.131207,131208 His grave marker and the SSDI put the date as 5 Mar 1952. However, he claimed it was 2 Jun 1951 when he applied for his SSAN. The reason for the wide discrepancy is unknown.

Neither is a primary source, so it is hard to know which is closer to the correct date. In July 1870 he was a domestic servant in Jefferson Twp., Washington, IN.131210 Enumerated in the household of Abram and Mary Hening, of no known relationship. In June 1880 he was a farm laborer in Jefferson Twp., Washington, IN.131211 In June 1900 James was a farmer in Jefferson Twp., Washington, IN.23765 In April 1910 he was a sawmill operator in Jefferson Twp., Washington, IN.23763 In January 1920 he was a dowser in Jefferson Twp., Washington, IN.23761 In April 1930 James was a farmer in Jefferson Twp., Washington, IN.23762 He died on 2 January 1940 at the age of 78 in Haleysburg, Washington, IN.23770,131212,131213 Died of a cerebral hemorrhage at home.

TEMPLE(S)-38396 and Sarah Catherine (Catherine) HERRING-47039.

James Gary (Guerry) TEMPLES131214 was born in September 1888 in GA.6981,6982,6983,131215 Temple People, Vol. II, gave Aug 1891, as does Find-A-Grave. Gave 1891 in 1910. Gave 1907 in 1940. He appeared in the census in June 1900 in Blakely, Early, GA.6982 In April 1910 he was a meat market driver in Blakely, Early, GA.6981 James lived in Blakely, Early, GA before 1917.131216 He served in the military in 1917/8.131214,131215,131216,131217 Dates may not be inclusive. Served as a private assigned to Company B, 151 1st Machine Gun Battalion, when he departed from Hoboken aboard the Agamemnon on 31 Oct 1917. Killed in action in the Marne still attached to that unit.

Initially buried in Grave # 4, Isolated, Commune of Souain (Marne), reburied 17 Jun 1919 in Grave # 174, Section 63, Plot 4, Argonne American Cemetery, Romagne-sous-Montfaucon, Meuse, France. Disinterred 5 Aug 1921 and shipped to his mother in Blakely, GA. Buried in the Blakely City Cemetery, GA. Associated with Blakely, GA, is his collection of papers in the Blakely Historical Society. He seems to be the same person enumerated in 1900 as James G. Temples. That person, in 1910, claimed to have been born in 1891 as well, though he was reported in 1900 as having a birth date of Sep 1888. Also, he was found in 1910 going by Gary, and in his later military papers as Guerry, the latter being consistent with his marriage papers. His military transshipment orders show his name was Guerry J. Temples. Parents: Manning TEMPLES-72464 and Sarah (Sallie, Sadie) -72465.

Spouse: Bennie BOWEN-90081. Bennie BOWEN and James Gary (Guerry) TEMPLES were married on 9 December 1912 in Early Co., GA.15835 In Early County Marriage Book J, p. 324. They may have divorced or she died, as she was not mentioned as the emergency contact when Guerry Temple sailed for Europe in WW1.


James Hansford TEMPLES3778,131218 was born on 30 June 1942 in Lynchburg, Lynchburg, VA.131219,131220 He lived in VA in 1959.131221 He died on 20 November 2000 at the age of 58 in NC.131218,131221 Buried in Forest Lawn East Cemetery, Weddington, NC. He seems to clearly be the grandson of James Hansford Temples, Jr., but it is not clear which of the latter's three sons was his father. His location in 1959 was VA, and two of the sons, Hansford C. and Samuel E., were also known in VA at some point. Parents: Hansford Clark TEMPLES-34508 and Willie Averille (Averille) BERSCH-85000.

Spouse: Judie M. -85005.


James Hansford (James) TEMPLES Jr. was born on 23 April 1881 in Edgefield Co., SC.22719,22720,22721,22722,22723,22724,22727,45140,131222 Gave his age as 37 in 1920. Gave his age as 48 in 1930. Gave 26 in 1910. Cemetery records put the date in 1881, but his WWI draft registration put it in 1882. In his SSAN application, he made the date 23 Jul 1881. In June 1900 he was a farm laborer in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.45140 In April 1910 he was a farmer in Wards Twp., Aiken, SC.22720,131223 Enumerated twice. In 1918 James was a farmer in Johnston, Edgefield, SC.22727 In January 1920 he was a farmer in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.22722 In April 1930 he was a farmer in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.22719 In April 1940 James was a farmer in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.22724 He died on 18 November 1956 at the age of 75 in Lynchburg, Campbell, VA.22721,22723,131224 Died of an acute myocardial infarction due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Buried in Phillipi Baptist Church Cemetery, Edgefield, SC. James Hansford, Jr., is confused with James Henry, Jr., in Temple People, Vol. II. I cannot separate them out, so it is possible the data presented here is actually for James Henry.

The information in Temple People, Vol. II has confused the dates for James Henry Temples with those of James Hansford Temples, along with ascribing the same wife to both men. It appears that the least information, which is associated with the family of James Henry, is the wrong information. It is possible that the information presented for James Hansford, Jr., should be for James Henry. Parents: James Hansford TEMPLE(S)-34153 and Martha E. HOWARD-34158.

Spouse: Bertha Mae CLARK-34503. Bertha Mae CLARK and James Hansford (James) TEMPLES Jr. were married in 1903 in SC.22719,22720 Children were: Katherine (Kate) TEMPLES-34506, Nelle Jane (Nellie) TEMPLES-34507, Hansford Clark TEMPLES-34508, James Clarence (Clarence) TEMPLES-49964, Anna Myrtis (Mertie) TEMPLES-34509, Samuel Edwin (Sam) TEMPLES-34510.


James Harrison (Harrison) TEMPLES25427 was born in May 1890 in KY.8104,29280,40766,131225 Gave 1886 in 1910. Some sources put the place as Sheperdsville, KY, but he claimed Fountain Run, KY, in his WWI draft registration. In April 1910 he was a farm laborer in Fountain Run, Monroe, KY.8104 In 1917 he was a farmer in Fountain Run, Monroe, KY.131225 In January 1920 James was a farmer in Fountain Run, Monroe, KY.40766 He died. Parents: William J. TEMPLE(S)-30830 and Effie Elizabeth (Bettie) DISMAN-47194.

Spouse: Tilda HARP-81291. Tilda HARP and James Harrison (Harrison) TEMPLES were married. The 1920 census confused Harrison's wife for Henry's and vice versa. Children were: James D. (Jimmie D.) TEMPLES-81292, Herbert Earl TEMPLES-81296, Fred Wilson TEMPLES-81298.


James Henry TEMPLES was born in 1873 in SC.45141 He appeared in the census in June 1880 in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.45141 He died on 15 May 1939 at the age of 66 in Ward Twp., Edgefield, SC.131226 The place seems wrong, since he and his wife were in Blythe, GA, from 1935-1940. Buried in Spann Cemetery, Ward, SC. This set of people seems very muddled, and very hard to connect up.

Spouse: Mattie V. MC GEE-157964. Mattie V. MC GEE and James Henry TEMPLES were married. Children were: Clarence Wilbert TEMPLES-157962, Beatrice TEMPLES-171993.

He did not explain that any further. He lived in Dothan, Houston, AL in 1956.130399 He lived in Dothan, Houston, AL in 2005.4889 James died on 27 November 2012 at the age of 83 in Dothan, Houston, AL.4890 Buried in Gardens of Memory, Kinsey, AL.

James Pickens TEMPLES35646,131247 was born on 22 August 1852 in Edgefield Co., SC.69062 He died before 1880 at the age of 28. He did not appear with his family in 1880, and was not found again, so the likelihood is that he was dead. Apparently absent in the 1860 census. His identification as James Temples, husband of Angelina Temple of Edgefield Co., SC is based on timing, lack of alternatives, and name similarity, but requires proof. Also, they were first cousins (though by adoption in the case of Angelina), so they were positioned closely to each other. Finally, his first child was named Stevens, and James Pickens' father, though named Seaborn, was enumerated in 1900 as Stephens Temples. Stevens' death certificate named his father John, however, and his mother was Angeline. So, it may be that instead of James Pickens Temples, Angeline was the first wife of John Calvin Temples, James' younger brother. Parents: Seaborn (Sebe) TEMPLE(S)-34150 and Rebecca Ann (Rebecca) RODGERS-34379.

In 1920, he claimed his parents were from NC (father) and GA (mother). In 1930, they were both from GA. His identification as the son of Sarah Alice Temples of Ware Co., GA, is based on his claimed birthplace in his SSAN application and his continued presence, at least through 1913, in Ware Co. Sarah Alice spent more of her time in Ware Co., GA than he did, though. He might also be the son of Hudson Temple(s) based only on his marriage place in Emanuel Co, as he spent very little, if any, time there. Evidence of his parentage is needed to place him properly.
