Biography

Note

I previously had Joshua Lamb and Mary Alcock of the Roxbury (Massachusetts Bay) Lambs as parents for Henry. I at present call up this is hundred-to-one. In Marshall Styles' book on the descendants of Elizabeth and Henry Lamb he shows no known parents for Henry and discusses the oftentimes-seen purported connections between Henry and the Roxbury Lambs. He states that he has found no evidence to support such a connection. - FR

Note: Marshall Styles' book on Henry & Elizabeth and their descendants states that no reliable record has been constitute for Henry'south birthplace. He states that Henry was born "about 1697" and it is non even known with any certainty whether he was born in the colonies or immigrated from somewhere in U.k.. Every bit can exist seen above, many birthplaces are claimed, but I have yet to see whatever credible testify supporting whatsoever of them. - FR

Volition

Transcription from Styles, p. xx. The volume too has images of the original hand-written will on pages 21-22:

Terminal Will and Attestation of Henry Lamb

Henry Lamb, and so residing in St. Luke's Parish of Rowan County had his manor probated on 22 Apr 1761 in Salisbury, Rowan, NC. The Volition and Probate record is recorded in Rowan County Will Book A:81, Court Record book II:333, 22 April 1761: "Will of Henry Lamb proved past Christopher Nation and William Proctor, witnesses. Jacob and Joseph Lamb executors. Court adjourned ane/ii hour; justices present Jno Brandon, William Giles, Edward Hughes, Alexander Cathey, Jacob Lash."

The original of his Concluding Will and Testament (much of it illegible, but at to the lowest degree extant) is located in the North Carolina State Archives, Rowan County Original Wills, and reads:

"In the Name of God Amen, the Seventh Twenty-four hour period of February in the yr of Our Lord 1761, I Henry Lambe of the Parish of Saint Luke in the Canton of Rowan and Province of North Carolina beingness very ill and weak in body but of perfect mind and retention, thanks exist given to God, therefore calling to mind the mortality of my body & knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make & ordain this my Last Volition and Testament, that is to say, Principally and first of all I requite & recommend my soul into the hands of God that give it and for my body, I recomend it to the Earth to exist buried in a fitting like manner at the discression of my executor.. wherewith it hath pleased God to Bless me in this Life, I give & Devise & dispose of aforementioned in the following way & form -

"Inprime, it is my volition & I do ordain that.. my only debts & funeral charges be paid and satisfied. Item, I give & bestow unto Elizabeth my dearly beloved wife, all & atypical full dower & title to all that is mine or belonging to me during her life if she continues to live on and at her death to be equally divided between Esau, Jacob & Joseph, Elizabeth & Bethia. To my sons Esau, Jacob & Joseph if they alive to get [unreadable].., and if my son Esau will not come to live one year on country, the hole land to my sons Jacob & Joseph, whom I likewise found, make and ordain my merely & sole executors of this my Final Will and Attestation.

"Item, I give and bestow unto my son Thomas Lamb, Esau and Mary a shilling to be paid by my executors subsequently my death. Whereby disallowing all and every other former Testaments by me in any mode earlier this time, ratifying and confirming this and no other to be my terminal volition and testament in witness whereof I have hereunto set up my manus and seal the solar day and yr get-go above mentioned. Signed Henry (his x mark) Lambe. Witness BENJAMIN BEESON, Chris Nation, __?__"

Benjamin Beeson who signed Henry's Will was the son of Richard and Clemency Grubb Beeson, and was the father of Frances Beeson who married Henry'southward son, Joseph Lamb.

Death

Date: 10 Feb 1761

Identify: St. Luke'south Parrish, Rowan Canton, North Carolina.

ANOTHER SOURCE SAYS DEATH IS 13 Sep 1774 Rowan, NC

From Styles, p. 15:

"Henry Lamb, the progenitor of this family, was built-in about 1697, and so tradition holds. He died on 10 Feb 1761 in St Lukes Parish, Rowan, NC. That fact was recorded in The Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy, Volume 1, North Carolina, by William Wade Hinshaw Hinshaw, page 660, at the Center Monthly Meeting, Guilford County, Northward Carolina."

Henry's will (run into in a higher place) was probated 22 April 1761 (op. cit., p. 20), so the 1774 date to a higher place is conspicuously an error.
