Some of the accented characters you need are already available in
the Times standard font:
Key Output
-------------------------------------
<Opt>`-e Grave e
<Opt>e-e Acute e
<Opt>c Circumflex c
<Opt>u-i Umlaut-i
There are lots more, if you play around with your Option key.
If you fire up Key Caps, and hold down the Option key, you'll
see some keys with a grey square around them. These are called
"dead" keys, and delay printing until another keystroke. Hit
one, and the characters that accept that accent will hilite
with a black border.
