LAMB family, Hither Green
« on: Tuesday 19 July 05 15:06 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for information about my g-grandmother, Mary Edith Lamb, who became Mary Edith Barrington in 1905 when she married Frank William Barrington at St Mary, Newington, Southwark. Her father was James Lamb, a painter, according to the marriage certificate. Would love to know the name of Mary's mother and any other family details - especially if she had a brother who never married called Arthur. The family had a connection to Hither Green, where I believe they all lived. Also, Frank William Barrington is buried at Hither Green cemetery.

If anyone knows anything about Mary Edith Lamb/Barrington, James Lamb or Arthur Lamb, please get in touch.

Thank you in advance,
Vicky

Just wondering if someone would be willing to look at the 1871, 1881 and/or 1891 census for the following person(s), please:

Mary Edith Lamb. She was born around 1881, married in 1905. I don't know where she was born, or if you'll even be able to find her family in Kent. All I know for sure is that the family lived in Hither Green in the 1940s. (Sorry if I'm wasting your time with this, but I don't know where else to go with this one!) Her father was James Lamb, a painter. I know it's a common name, but I wondered if you could find him on the 1881 and/or 1891 census with his daughter, Mary, and perhaps also a son called Arthur. 

Thank you very much. My mother and I would be ever so grateful if you could help us with this.

Best wishes,
Vicky

Hi Sue, thanks for getting back to me so quickly. :)

I don't have the marriage certificate to hand, but she was 24 when she got married in July 1905, so 1881-ish?

Thanks for your interest,
Vicky
