Miriam, I don't remember what I typed, but you are right about Oliver's book. Sorry, if I typed it in wrong... I have been jumping back and forth between sources (you should see my desk!) so, keep me honest. On the Elizabeth Temple witnessing the Quaker marriage - did you get the impression that she was Quaker? William of Chester Co, PA is the only one of the early Temples that I know of that was Quaker.
