Simon and Peggy Templer
The late Simon and Peggy Templer were a British couple who lived in Spain, where they dedicated their later lives to rescuing mistreated chimpanzees used by photographers on beach resorts. Spain had become a focus of the trade in chimpanzees for the tourist industry, and these apes would be severely abused. Simon and his wife Peggy took on the role of persuading the Spanish authorities (Guardia Civil) to confiscate the chimps and provide them a more safe environment.〔
==Early years==
Simon was born in England in 1913 and spent much of his childhood in Ceylon (Sri Lanka). His first names were actually Basil Henry Francis, but Peggy took to calling him Simon after the fictional character, and called him this until the end of his life. His family returned to the UK in 1924 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The National Archives via www.ancestry.co.uk )〕
when he was ten years old after his father had died. He was one of six children, two boys and four girls. His mother lived in Hammersmith, London, until she died.
Peggy was born in 1920 in Liverpool. Her father was a Welsh school teacher. The family moved to Alexandria, Egypt where he taught for many years. When Peggy reached secondary age she was sent back to Wales to live with an Aunt. She got a place to study at Bangor University. By this time her parents were back in Wales and her father was a headmaster of a Prep School in Bangor. She had one younger sister.
