Donna, Did some more checking on Ancestry. Christopher Lambert is on the 1850 census in Turners District, Fauqueir County, VA. He appears to be the son of John and Mary Lambert and has a bunch of brothers and sisters. I believe he is 21. He appears again on the 1860 census in Washington DC. Also, under American Civil War Soldiers, his death is given. He was killed at Ball's Bluff 21 Oct 1861. He was a member of Co C of the 8th Infantry Regiment of VA. (Confederate) I will send you these if you need them. Betty -------------- Original message -------------- From: dcmowery@aol.com > Elizabeth ?

Thanks, Betty! Ancestry is such a good source. I think I'm gonna have to give in and get a membership. Yes. I'd like copies, if it's not too much trouble. Wonder how C. Lambert wound up being buried in the the lot Elizabeth bought if he was living in DC and she died in March of 1860. Wonder if she's buried there but it's unmarked and not listed. Strange. More questions!? :) Donna -----Original Message----- From: brfrain@comcast.net To: valoudou@rootsweb.com Sent: Wed, 9 Apr 2008 10:51 am Subject: Re: [VALOUDOU] Lambert Donna, Did some more checking on Ancestry.
