Well, as I sent you the other day, the 1870 Mortality Schedule where she is listed is for the year ending June 1 1870. That means she died in Mar 1870. When I did the Death Records for Loudoun County, there were no records at all for 1870. Apparently there were times the state used the money for other things, and there are no records for many if not all counties for certain years. I have been thinking about this. You know I did the Union Cemetery books and in doing so looked at all the records available. There are a number of Confederate burials throughout the cemetery that are in lots that have no ties to the deceased. I think that when a member of the community was killed in the war, and if someone had a lot they were not expecting to use, they would sell it to the family of the soldier. Or maybe even give it to them if the family was not well off. There may not be any connection between Elizabeth and Christopher Lambert. I will email those pages as soon as I go back on Ancestry.

I had wondered if maybe they donated lots to fallen soldiers. If Elizabeth had been or planned to be buried elsewhere, that would explain it. I'm still confused about her?year of death. She was 48 (Bety Hipkins) on the 1850 census and 58 (Elizabeth Hammerly) on the 1860 census. Pat's info from the 1870 Mortality Schedule says she was 59 yo when she died. That would have made her born in 1811 and she had Jacob in 1821. If she was already dead and buried elsewhere with either Jacobs or Hipkins, I can understand the donation?to C. Lambert. Couldn't get the files off ancestry. Might be because I'm not a member. :( Donna -----Original Message----- From: brfrain@comcast.net To: valoudou@rootsweb.com Sent: Wed, 9 Apr 2008 2:41 pm Subject: Re: [VALOUDOU] Lambert Well, as I sent you the other day, the 1870 Mortality Schedule where she is listed is for the year ending June 1 1870.
