Good morning all, Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter this week provided a link to a site listing the officers in the Mexican War. James A. Templeton, my great grandfather's brother, served, but since he was not an officer, I did not expect to find him. However, two other Templetons did show up. I've taken the liberty to translate the bibliography codes. ID: 5325 Record: 4186 First Name: A. Middle Name: W.
