Templeton is a city in Carroll County, Iowa, United States. The population was 352 at the time of the 2020 census. Templeton was platted in 1882. The city was probably named for a railroad worker. The city was incorporated on September 28, 1883. The city is perhaps best known as the home of Templeton Rye, a "brand" of rye manufactured during the prohibition era that was very popular in Chicago, Omaha, and Kansas City speakeasies. Many enterprising Carroll County farmers found this to be a viable way to supplement income during the Great Depression. At the height of the bootlegging during the Great Depression, Templeton with a population of less than 500 people, was using three railroad cars of sugar a month. More information...
