History

The Montreal architectural firm of Archibald, Illsley and Templeton was comprised of the architects Ian Thurston Archibald (1903-71), Hugh Percival Illsley (1896-1992), and Francis Orr Templeton (1904-72). Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Templeton graduated from the Glasgow School of Architeture in 1927. He was assistant to John S. Archibald from 1929 to 1932. He was assistant and later partner with H.G. Hughes in Ottawa. He joined the firm of Archibald & Illsley in 1946 and became a partner in 1948. He retired from the partnership ca. 1970 and died in Scotland in 1972. After Templeton's retirement and Archibald's death, Illsley praticed independantly until his retirement in 1983. Four projects by this firm are documented in the CAC archives by architectural drawings.
