The Temple baronetcy, of The Nash in Kempsey in the County of Worcester, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 16 August 1876 for the politician and colonial administrator Richard Temple.[1]
The family were descendants of William Dicken, who in 1740 married Henrietta, daughter and co-heir of the 5th Baronet of the 1611 creation. Their son assumed by Royal licence the surname of Temple in lieu of Dicken in 1796. His grandson was the 1st Baronet.[1]
