Quaker Cousins - Elias Robert Lamb - 1857 - 1879


Today is another post about an Elias in the Marsh family. Elias Robert Lamb was the son of another one of Sabina (Marsh) Albertson's sisters, Lydia (Marsh) Lamb and her husband Joseph Lamb.

Both Elias Robert's birth and death in Hancock County Indiana were recorded in the records of the Quaker Westland Monthly Meeting. Elias Robert was number 6 in a family of 8 children, born 18 May 1857. He was the 5th and the last one born who was named Elias of the grandsons of Elias and Edith (Townsend) Marsh.


However, he was the 1st one who died, as he died at age 22 on 9 Jun 1879. The other 4 all lived past 1910.. I wish I knew what caused his death at such a young age.
