Templeton family of Whitehaven and Ireland

[JennyLeM]

In the 1841 Census for Whitehaven I found 3 Templeton brothers, I think, James, born 1802 in Ireland, a stone cutter, who married Jane Greenlow from Scotland (my ancestors);  John, born 1806 in Ireland, a coal miner, married Catherine, and Thomas, born 1811 in Ireland, a labourer, married to Jane Lawson. Also living with Thomas and family was Catherine, aged 79, born in Ireland who I think must have been their mother. I am looking for their father, and other other siblings. Maybe they came from Down in Ireland where there were Templetons. Any suggestions please?

Welcome to Rootschat.

Have you found any of them in 1851 where a more exact place of birth may be given?

You've posted this in the wrong place, as this is the How to Use Rootschat board and so people won't look here for requests. I'll ask a Mod to move it to where it will be seen.

Thanks,I'll try that.
Egg on face for posting in the wrong place!

Looking for Catherine Templeton, born about 1762 in Ireland, moved to Cumberland

Don't worry about that, it can easily be moved. It does take a bit of time to find your way around Rootschat, but it is a great site with lots of knowleable people so hopefully someone will be able to find them for you.

This seems to be the Templeton family I am researching , my great Grandmother was Margaret Temple/Templeton born 1838 in Whitehaven , her father was John Temple Coal miner on her marriage cert.note the surname....On the certificate of my grandmother the name was Templeton. It was probably the accent but the name Temple is on some of the census returns also . I don't have any earlier information though .
