Amelia Temple Williams the daughter of Jim Temple, Sr.

Amelia Temple Williams were the daughter of Jim and Margarette Amacker Temple. She was born in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana. Little is known about this beautiful woman who is dressed so elegant. I myself would like to know more about her; Did she have children? What did she do as an occupation? What happened to her?

Her siblings were Charlie, John, Hollis, Walter, Robert, Bernard and Jim Temple, Jr., She has several sisters, Mary is the one that is known. Her sister Mary married a man named Tony Bush of Amite, LA.

Genealogy research on the Temple & Williams side of the family history just might reveal more information on Amelia. Because her surname is given here, this is a good lead.

Ameila's mother Margarette surname is Amacker, the Amacker's family history is deep rooted in St. Helena Parish. Many of the Amacker's up to this day, still lives in St. Helena Parish. Amelia married Chas Williams and she is buried in Temple Cemetery in Amite, Louisiana. There is a headstone on her grave. Her husband Chas is buried right on the side of her.
