JuneLambert   10 #1 Posted May 9, 2009 I am researching my family, and my dad's family lived at 20 Main Street Hackenthorpe. My grandad was Frederick Lambert and my grandmother was Sarah Catherine. They had 14 children ( In the two up / two down house!) my dad being the youngest. I know most of the lads worked at Birley pit - not sure what grandad did......may have worked at Severquick's scythe works just on the corner. Does anyone know the family? I had aunts, uncles and cousins in Hackenthorpe and we used to walk up to Hackenthorpe across the fields past Chiwalli farm and the old school houses. When my mum (Kit Lambert) first came to Beighton (from Birmingham) she did her shopping at Fulliloves shop in Hackenthorpe. Does anyone remember that? What a great site. Reading what people have posted has been a trip down memory lane for me! JuneLambert:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

JuneLambert   10 #3 Posted May 20, 2009 My dad was one of 14 children, but there wasn't an Eric as far as I know. It may be that your dad is from another branch of the family though. My brother and I are researching our family tree so if I come across an Eric I will let you know. Does your dad live at Hackenthorpe or did he used to live there? Thanks JuneLambert:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Urien   10 #4 Posted May 20, 2009 I know some-one who's maiden name is Betty Lambert. She hails from that neck of the woods, She'll be about 69 years old.  I also know of an Harold Lambert who died last year aged 78. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
JuneLambert   10 #5 Posted May 20, 2009 Thanks for this....however, my dad didn't have a Betty in his direct family, nor did he have a Harold - don't think so anyway. I'll keep a note though which may be helpful as I dig deeper into the Lamberts of Hackenthorpe! JuneLambert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Lostrider   10 #8 Posted May 20, 2009 I remember a Pat Lambert who lived on Birley Spa Lane opposite Rainbow Forge School, she was in my class so she would be 56 now. There was also an Angela Lambert in Hackenthorpe of a similar age. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
JuneLambert   10 #9 Posted May 21, 2009 Thanks for responding. I can't remember a Kenny Lambert or a Pat.....I know one of my cousins is Pete Lambert, I think he's the son of my uncle Arthur who lived in Hackenthorpe. My Aunt Joan (Lambert) married a Doug Tann and they had three children. Patrick, another son and Kate. They ( Uncle Arthur and Aunt Joan) lived on Westfield Crescent (?) the first road you came to from Beighton on your left opposite Carter Lodge School. All the people you mention could be cousins though, as my dad was one of 14. Most of whom lived in and around Hackenthorpe. I've probably got about 30 cousins - some of whom I've met and some I haven't. Many thanks! JuneLambert:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

JuneLambert   10 #11 Posted May 21, 2009 Hi! I didn't realise either! I've had quite a few responses - which is good, and I'm really enjoying researching my family - It's linked me in with all sorts of nice people.
