Thanks Radcliffe
My interest stems from 2 sons of Cuthbeth Cuddy Lamb and Ann Dawson that emigrated to Australia. They were Thomas Lamb born Kendall Hill, Thurnham, Lancashire 1 Apr 1827 and died at Daisy Hill Farm, Killarney in Queensland on 21 Feb 1902. The other son was William Dawson Lamb Born - Kendall Hill, Thurnham, Cockerham, Lancashire 22 Mar 1847 and died 17 Mar 1925 at the Commercial Hotel, Warwick, Queensland, Australia. Thank you so much for your time and effort
Cheers Phil

Phil I am at work ,so I dont have the resources here that I have available at home,
There have been other Lamb researchers on here ,so they may pick out your posting,
I didnt find a burial for Dorothy ,so I shall look again later,she wont be far away,
As for Cuddy did you think it a little Odd that Cuthberts witness was named Cuddy or just a coincidence,

Hi Radcliffe
I found Dorothy buried in St Michaels graveyard Cockerham, 5 May 1859 not sure if it's the burial date or date of death. As for Cuddy, when I first saw it I imagined that they must have been relatives or close family friends. There is no record of either Cuddy Wright or William France being buried at Cockerham or Glasson that I can see. These little communities generally stayed close for generations so it seems a bit strange.
Cheers and thanks again Phil

Hi Bonnie
I was more interested in Thomas Lamb but included his brother as they appeared to be close up until Thomas died in 1902. I found death notices in the Warwick Examiner and marriages of children W D Lamb and Thomas. The BDM Queensland Index search records William Dawson Lambs mother as Elizabeth or do I have the wrong William Dawson Lamb ???
Bye Phil

Hi Phil,
Sorry, I haven't undertaken any research on those people.
Interest is with the wife of John Gordon Douglas Lamb, being Catherine Joy Spreadborough formerly Tuckwell, so was hoping you were connected with them.
Thanks for your reply

I would still get in touch with the other Lamb researchers who use Rootschat,as you all have so much to discuss ,that has already been researched,as for the burial of Dorothy mistakes are often made in transcription, so please still check out the will at Lancashire archives,

Thanks again Radcliffe and Annette7
You have put me back on track and have given me plenty to work with for a while

Hi
looking at your questions regarding Cuthbert Lamb and Ann Dawson this is my husbands family as well. I think I have a link back to James lamb and Elizabeth Haresnape who married in 1715, does anyone where they are buried and has anyone traced back further on the James Lamb side?
Thankyou

Sorry yes they are the burial dates,
quite intereting surname for Elizabeth,
you will find Haresnapes from 1602 onwards buried in St Michaels,

St Michael

James Lamb
Eliz Haresnape,

Hi Radcliff
Thankyou,I will certainly look out for other Haresnape graves.
I am aware they are quite a well known family, James probably married above his station in life!!
Thanks again

Greetings All,
Phil,
I see you are interested in Thomas and William Dawson Lamb who immigrated here in Australia.
Thomas Lamb was my g.g.grandfather. (The younger brother, William Dawson Lamb was commonly known as "WD" here in Australia). I have been researching the family for a number of years and have a lot of information. In fact, one of my cousins and her husband have visited the old Lamb "stamping grounds" in Lancashire, taken photos et al.
I guess you would also be descended from the Lamb family, Phil.
Maybe we can pool our resources.
Up to you.
Cheers,
Tom Fletcher
