Thank you for the information. The fact that the two versions of the name seem to be used in the same family is a bit confusing .Not knowing if the family actually used the two names or was it how  other people perceived it.

Looking for Catherine Templeton, born about 1762 in Ireland, moved to Cumberland

I have been searching since 1991 but with no luck.  Alexander is shown as Catherine's husband on her death certificate. She was born in Ireland in 1757/58 and lived to be almost 101 years old. I am a descendant of Thomas Templeton and Jane Lawson.

I am a decendant of Alexander Templeton and his wife, Catherine, via their son Thomas and his wife Jane Lawson.
The family can be found in 1841 at St. Bees in Whitehaven and the following censuses show them living in Upperby in Carlisle. Each census gives only Ireland as place of birth.
So far no clues have been found as to where in Ireland they were born, nor to Catherine's maiden name.
