I had a death date for Jacob (in NC) of 1800, but didn't have--or at least hadn't noted--the source. I'd be interested in getting a transcription of the will. Does it name all his children? When I started trying to back-track my information, I found there were 2 listings for "Jacob & Sarah Lamb" in the b. & d. records for Centre Meeting in Guilford Co, NC. There are no dates or info about Jacob or Sarah in the first listing--which lists 5 children--John, Lydia, Thomas, Jacob, & Catherine. Just below that is listed (the same? another?) Jacob & Sarah Lamb with 2 daughters--Rebecca & Christian. The 2nd listing gives a 1799 d. date for Sarah. Bellarts' info that Linda Pearson just sent lists all 7 of these children, plus Huldah as being the children of Jacob & Sarah Stone Lamb. This is possible, but considering the gap in ages of the 2 youngest from the older children, it seems possible to me that there could have been another Jacob & Sarah Lamb. There must be some other source--maybe it is his will and they are all listed in it. I'm going to send this to the QR line also knowing that many heads are better than one or two! Glad to hear from you anytime, Joy. Joyce Joyce Overman Bowman Indianapolis, IN

I too have questions about Jacob's family. Enclosed is what I have collected on Jacob and Sarah. See how it jibes with what you have. Do I need to make corrections? Stars indicate that I have more about that individual. Please tell me if you have anything more about their children, etc. I would appreciate hearing from you. I am interested in any Lamb.
