I am getting in touch with my friend Ruth in the hope that she will correspond with the rest of the herd. Bob
We are a flock, not a herd, although I allegedly have Cowbans in my FT so I'm a member of a flock of Lambs and a herd of cows.  ;D
One of my Lambs strayed to Accrington 200 years ago and married a local lass, then left again and seems to have meandered back to Cockerham.
I've been looking at Lambs in Poll Book for Lancaster Borough Election of 1784 on Lancashire Archives online catalogue today. Somehow Edward Lamb of London, house carpenter, son of George was eligible to vote in Lancaster. Were there postal votes in those days? Perhaps Edward's chosen candidate paid for a return stagecoach journey.  James and George Lamb, also sons of George, and George himself,  all house carpenters of Lancaster, voted.

Colin, as I posted on your other thread Bumping is discouraged on rootschat.

This thread is 8 pages long, it would be better if you tell us what information you are now after rather than just putting 'Bump'

Hi everyone I have built an extensive tree on Ancestry it goes back to the Lambs of Cockerham in the 1500's if you would like to take a look it is a public tree. I will add a link below.
