There seems to be some confusion here. Margaret Dionys Temple Moore (1922-2004) was indeed daughter of Mary Temple Moore (1885-1977), but Temple Lushington (not -tom!) Moore (1856-1920) was her father. Margaret Dionys Temple Moore’s father was Leslie Thomas Moore (1883-1957), who married Mary Temple Moore in 1915. Leslie was an architect unrelated to his wife (despite the same surname), who became a partner of his father-in-law Temple Lushington Moore and eventually his successor in the practice.
Mary Temple Moore (writer and illustrator) was herself the daughter of Temple Lushington Moore (church architect and artist). Margaret may rather be the daughter of Mary Temple Moore and Leslie Thomas Moore (http://tombwithaview.org.uk/flower-festival/residents-of-church-row/) and thus Temple Lushington’s grand-daughter. Margaret’s birth registration survives (December 1922 – mother’s maiden name Moore – Hampstead district – Volume 1a Page 814).
Correction – she was the GRANDDAUGHTER of Temple Lushington Moore. although MTM was indeed her mother. She was Temple Moore’s youngest child who in 1915 married Leslie Thomas Moore (1883-1957).
NB it’s LushingtoN, not LushingtoM.
The family background is all laid out in my Temple Moore: an Architect of the Late Gothic Revival’ (1997).
