> "The Rise of the Temple's; A Millenium of Power & Progress, 716 A.D. to the Present, & >Genealogy" by Albert R. Temple & Danny D. Smith & published by The Temple >Family Association of Cincinnati, Ohio in 1973. I didn't know there was a >Temple Family Association Hi William, I haven't seen this book either! Can anyone tells us where the book can be found? Nor have I seen the Temple Family Association anywhere. Thanks for the information on Levi's book. Also, the Knight's Templar possiblity is very interesting. The Temple name deriving from a Temple, makes a lot of sense to me. I wonder were the name "Temple Hall' came from originally... could there have been an ancient Temple around the area? As usually, more questions than answers... Joanne
