General Notes: Husband - Thomas M. Lambert


He was reared in the usual manner of farmer lads and so spent the days of his boyhood and youth. His educational advantages were limited, and in 1872 his father apprenticed him to Thomas Riley, of Clearfield, Pennsylvania, to learn the blacksmith's trade. After a short time he entered the service of Henry Kerns, of Curwensville, with whom he remained two years, completely mastering the business. He afterward spent one year at Reads Cross Roads in Lawrence township, Clearfield County, and then worked near Stoneville until 1876, when he, too, was stricken with typhoid fever. During the following year he worked for the Sandy Lick Coal Co., in Du Bois, and then was employed in Brockwayville, after which he entered the service of the Rochester Coal Co., in Du Bois, while the miners were on a strike. Subsequently he carried on a smithy in Decatur township, on Morgan run, and after his marriage located at Hoover's Mills, where he remained for a year, when he came to Coalport, and in 1880 purchased some lots there. He erected a fine residence, which he made his home until 1889, when he removed to Unionville, Centre County, working at his trade for a year. At the expiration of that period he returned to Coalport, erected another shop and handsome dwelling, and occupied one of the finest homes in the place.
In politics Mr. Lambert was a stanch Republican, and held the office of councilman of Coalport for four years. He and his family were members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
