General Notes: Husband - James Lamberton

---

When he married his father was already dead, and he and his bride took formal possession of the homestead in Middleton township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, where they began the serious duties of life and always lived. He was a useful and honored citizen, a man of character and influence, and became regarded as a leader in his community. He was an active member of the Presbyterian Church at Carlisle, and for a time was one of its ruling elders. He was also a soldier in the war of the Revolution. In 1804 Gov. McKean appointed him a justice of the peace for the Seventh district of Cumberland County which included Middleton township and the town of Carlisle. This office he held during the rest of his life, and was honored with the title of "Squire Lamberton".
