Hello Mike

I came across you site when doing a Google search for Tempero as I also have Tempero ancestors (I’m descended from Henry Tempero a nephew of Charles and Thomas Tempero who were the two members of the family who emigrated from Great Milton, Oxfordshire, England to Wisconsin in the 1840s. In the information on your site, William Tempero and Mary Bitteridge are shown as the parents of Charles and Thomas. This is not correct. Their parents were John Tempero and Mary Betteridge. The following is the correct information for this family (I’ve deleted generation 4 of the English and New Zealand branches of the family – my branch is the New Zealand branch):

Also connected with this family, I’ve come across a reference in a database of Wisconsin Land Records (onwww.ancestry.com ) to land purchases by Thomas Tempero at the Milwaukee Land Office in 1844, 1848 and 1859, and by Charles Tempero in the same Land Office in 1850, and also by a Henry Tempero in the Hudson Land Office in May 1859.

There is a family story that Henry Tempero, who emigrated with his wife and family from England to New Zealand in 1870 , had visited his uncles in Wisconsin some years earlier and had purchased land while out there but somehow lost it. This record would seem to substantiate this story which we had all thought had no real basis in fact.

Do you know which part of the state is involved with the Hudson Land Office and how I could find out more about the purchase by Henry Tempero?

Lesley, Henry purchased land in Chippewa County in the northwest area of Wisconsin. I don’t know what township he was located in other than it’s rectangular coordinates from what you found in www.ancestry.com
