A collection of information on Lambert families in the southern Illinois counties of:
       Johnson
       Massac
       Pope
       Pulaski
       Saline
       Union
       Williamson

This project grew out of my research into my ggg/grandfather,
Hezekiah Lavender Lambert.
Hezekiah was born in Tennessee about 1813; married in Davidson County; his first 
child was born in Wilson County.  By 1850 the family was in Calloway County, 
Kentucky.  And in late 1850, Hezekiah began buying land in nearby Johnson County, 
Illinois.
I am reasonably certain that his parents were John and Elizabeth (Cartwright) 
Lambert, but have not yet proven it definitively.  On the Lambert side, that is the 
end of my road.

Finding that he was not, by any means, the only Lambert to move from Tennessee to the 
Johnson County area, I began to collect information on the others.

My hope is this:
That someday, another Lambert researcher out there will contact me and say,
"My family has this story about gggg/uncle Hezekiah . . ."

Well, I can dream, can't I?

Anyway, come on in.  Have a cup of coffee.  Wander around the Lamberts of southern 
Illinois.
If you have any information to contribute, it will be greatly appreciated.
If you find something here that helps you in your research, please let me know.

And while you're researching elsewhere, keep an eye out for Hezekiah, would you
