 Richard Grenville-Temple, 2nd Earl Temple biography .ms   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
From this time Temple became one of the most violent and factious of politicians, and it is difficult to account for the influence he exerted over his illustrious brother-in-law.
Temple then began to libel Pitt; and in conjunction with his brother George he concentrated the whole Grenville connexion in hostility to the government.
In addition to the estates he inherited, Temple gained a considerable fortune by his marriage in 1737 with Anne, daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Chambers of Hanworth, Middlesex; a volume of poems by her was printed at the Strawberry Hill press in 1764.

 Soane and the Grenvilles: Peter Inskip traces the story of Sir John Soane's work at Stowe, Buckingham House, Brasenose ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The employment of architects by the Temple and Grenville families of Stowe is characterised by three different periods of patronage.
Although his Gothic Library is often seen as a somewhat isolated commission, with Stowe House largely finished under Earl Temple, Soane's extensive work for the next two generations of the Grenvilles has to be seen in the context of their estates.
From the mid 1760s Earl Temple had been supported in all his architectural forays by him, and it was Pitt who was eventually responsible for the remodelling the exterior of Stowe House in the 1770s.

 George Grenville Papers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
In the Pelham ministry he was made a lord of the admiralty in 1744 and a lord of the treasury in 1747.
Although Grenville in his early career was dominated by Temple and Pitt, and frequently overshadowed by them, he did earn the reputation in the House of Commons as an effective speaker and a capable man of business.
This collection is concentrated on the two years 1756 and 1757; none of it relates to Grenville's position in the Bute ministry or to his own tenue as first lord of the treasury and architect of the Stamp Act.

 George Nugent-Temple-Grenville, 1st Marquess of Buckingham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the House of Commons he was a sharp critic of the American policy of Lord North.
In September 1779 he succeeded his uncle as Earl Temple; in 1782 was appointed Lord Lieutenant of Buckinghamshire; and in July of the same year became a member of the Privy Council and Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in the Ministry of Lord Shelburne.
He enjoyed the confidence of King George III, and having opposed Fox's East India Bill, he was authorized by the King to say that "whoever voted for the India Bill was not only not his friend, but would be considered by him as an enemy", a message which ensured the defeat of the Bill.

 Stowe House Preservation Trust : Remarkable Stowe
It is widely acknowledged that the finest approach to the garden is through the House, with the route through the North Hall and the Marble Saloon providing a fitting introduction to the view of the garden from the South Loggia, which must be one of the most memorable views in all Europe.
The House, as it stands today, remains as it was recast by Earl Temple in the 1770's by his cousin Thomas Pitt, developing an initial proposal by Robert Adam.
It is, without doubt, one of the earliest neo-classical palaces, and the great Marble Saloon at the centre anticipates by a decade the complexity of the spatial planning introduced by Soane in his idealistic projects.
