Lamb,
J., Unknown, & Mary- Marriages
PARENTS
The signature on the church baptism record for Charles, son of Charles Ellerton & Maria Lamb proves that John Lamb was in Canada on 17 November 1836. See Ellerton / Lamb / Shepard page. In fact John's signature (probably John Sr.) as a witness is shown on a Jackson church baptism record on 2 June 1836. See Miscellaneous Transcribed Church Record page.
The 1851 Census shows Samuel Lamb, Marian Lamb, & John Lamb all living as one family in Hemmingford Township in a single story log house with four houses under construction & a Blacksmith Shop. All three were born in England and were Episcopal in religion. Samuel was listed as a blacksmith and John was shown to be a labourer. How John Lamb was related to Samuel & Marian is unknown. Possibly an uncle - nephew-with-wife relationship. Samuel & Mary Ann appear to have had no children.

Agricultural Census on Page 153, Line 4 showed Samuel Lamb had 46 acres.

Researcher: C. G. Lamb, 6 JL 2000.
Also, I found in the Clinton Co. courthouse in Plattsburgh two Lamb testate records: Samuel Lamb, d. 1/5/1904 and Mary Ann Lamb, d. 4/13/1907. Mary Ann left a will which is probably on file at the courthouse.
Source: W. O'Halloran, E-mail, 13 JL 2000.
SPECULATION: It appears that Mary was John's second wife. Possibly his first wife's first name was Elizabeth. A guess I made from Internet searching. Maria's date of birth shows that Mary would only be approximately 13 years old when she was born.
John was buried in the Old Henryburg Cemetery, Route 217, Municipality of St. Bernard de Lacolle, St. Jean County, Quebec. Mary died in Withernsea, East Riding Parish, Yorkshire County, England. At the time John's death the 1861 Census indicates he was living with the former husband (Charles S. Ellerton) of his now deceased daughter, Maria & his new wife Mary Ester Shepard along with his grandson Charles Ellerton Jr. & 6 children from the Mary Ester Shepard - Charles S. Ellerton marriage.
Samuel & Mary were buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery, Guay Road, Municipality of St. Bernard de Lacolle, St. Jean County, Quebec. Samuel's will seems to be registered in Champlain, New York, USA. Possibly Samuel & Mary moved to the Champlain, NY Area between 1851 & 1860. Their gravestone indicates they were buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery.
