Are Knights Templar and Freemasons connected?

I use an alias so that I may freely inquire.
I am a grandson of a former member of this Brotherhood (he was in one of the northern New Jersey Lodges but I haven't a clue which one), but I don't fully understand what he did with you all during his life in the Freemasons. Additionally, I do not fully understand what the Freemasons are about or their origins. Are you all really connected to the Knights Templar?
I'm merely an inquisitive mind who seeks to understand a bit more.
In earnest,
Plubius
