	Richard Grenville Temple, 1st earl Temple - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Temple forthwith began to inspire the most virulent libels against Pitt; and in conjunction with his brother George he concentrated the whole Grenville connexion in hostility to the government.
		Peter Temple (1600-1663), the regicide, was a member of this elder line; a younger branch had settled in Oxfordshire and passed thence to Buckinghamshire, where John Temple purchased Stowe in 1589.
		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.

	Oxford Archaeology - Stowe House
		Stowe is one of the foremost neo-classical private houses of the 18th century, set in one of the most stunning picturesque landscaped gardens surviving from that period.
		Stowe House was the seat of this remarkable family, and the design of the house and its surrounding gardens reflects their rise to prominence, as they sought to maintain and emphasise their social and political position at the height of fashion.
		Earl Temple undertook developments to the north facade, but the main focus of his interest was the south, or garden, front of the house.

	Helmdon Historical Documents
		Temple had slowly been consolidating his estates in the area around Stowe since he inherited the property in 1749, and it is not surprising to find him taking an interest when Ferrers decided to sell.
		Temple's argument was that he had cashed stock he intended to use in the transaction because he believed land currently to be a better investment than paper securities.
		Temple eventually went through with the deal, and it is unfortunate that the record is not sufficiently clear for us to be certain how much he finally paid, and whether this did or did not exceed the outstanding debts.

		The Temple of Concord and Victory is one of the most important and impressive of Stowe's three dozen garden buildings.
		The Temple was started in 1747 when the Grecian Valley in front was laid out by 'Capability' Brown and may itself be one of his designs.
		In 1761-64, therefore, Earl Temple made further changes and gave it its present name with its Roman ring, recalling British victories abroad in the Seven Years' War (1756-63) and political harmony at home, particularly celebrating the role of his brother-in-law, William Pitt.

		For instance, the eldest son of the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry is the Earl of Dalkeith, even though the Duke is also the Marquess of Dumfriesshire, a senior title to the Earldom of Dalkeith.
		For instance, the eldest son of the Earl of Devon is Lord Courtenay, even though the Earl has no barony of that name, and similarly the eldest son of the Earl of Guilford is Lord North.
		Thus a baron's wife is called "baroness", an earl's wife is called a "countess", a duke's wife a "duchess", etc. Despite being referred to as a "peeress", she does not, however, become a peer "in her own right": these are 'styles', not substantive titles.
