    3. Is there anyone working on the LAMBERT line in Hunterdon Co NJ? From a genealogy book on the Lambert lines in America, I find the following general information: 1638, 20 families sailed from Hull, England to Rowley, Mass. Francis Lambert was among them. His descendants were John Lambert and Gershom Lambert, they both migrated to Amwell, Hunterdon Co NJ about 1735. John Lambert, s/o John, s/o Francis, was born 2-24-1746, was acting Gov. of NJ 1802-3, was US Senator, buried 2-4-1823 at Amwell. In 1814 the name of the town was changed to LAMBERTVILLE, in honor of John Lambert, and designated at the spot were Gen G. Washington crossed the Delaware with his troops. After the Revolutionary War, State Troops were formed, and there was one Lambert name from Hunterdon Co NJ among them. My interest in the Lambert line is: My ancestor is Perkins Lambert. Her birth date is unknown to me, but she married Johannes Brouwer b. 1747. When they married in 1768 in New York City, they were both described as living in NYC. Therefor I am trying to determine the Lambert line in Hunterdon Co NJ to see if my Perkins Lambert might fit into that line. Please give me some help and or advice, Best regards, Lilly Martin
