Temperance was born on 22 May 1803 in Warren County, Kentucky. She was the daughter of Elijah Lomax and Rachel Hiatt. She passed away on 30 Jan 1887 in Abingdon, Knox County, Illinois, and was buried in Cherry Grove Cemetery, Abingdon, Knox County, Illinois.[1]
Tempy Lomax married John Pool on 19 Jan 1825 in Warren, Kentucky.[2]
there is discussion of confusion between John Henry Pool and John M Pool--
the following is quoted for reference:
-> submission to the Family History of LDS Mormon Temple in Salt Lake City, UT...stated that a John Pool, married an Eva Houk. This John Pool was born in 1779 and is not my John Pool. Also submitted with this info...John Pool (the one born in 1779 in Muddy Creek, Rowan Co., NC) was the son of a William Pool, who was the son of an Edward Pool. Some Pool researchers have attached the John Pool who married Tempy Lomax with this Edward Pool of Rowan Co., NC...this cannot be documented and I believe to be false. - George Sweeney --- Verlinda Cliffton listing in 1880 Census of Coldbrook, Warren, Illinois says father was born in GA. ---
