About Abel Lamb

Son of Thomas Lamb, of Roxbury and Elizabeth (unknown)

According to research by Harriet Jane Lamb Stradling, this Abiel died at age 16 which would put his date of death at 1649. I believe this may be incorrect, based on the birth date of the second "Abiel Lamb," son of Thomas and his second wife, Dorothy Harbottle. I believe they named that child Abiel because the first Abiel had already died. This is my own interpretation of events and may or may not be accurate.


ABEL, 5th known child of Thomas & Elizabeth Lamb, was born about August 1633; probably the "Abell Lamb, servant to William French." He was buried at Cambridge 16 October 1649. Source: Anderson's Great Migration Begins.
