Spelling of name
Robert Plummer 4/19/02
In the first half of the 1800s, several closely related Lambeth families appear in the Columbus County, NC, censuses.Some of the families moved to Georgetown County, SC, and are listed as Lambert in 1850, Lambeth again in 1860, and Lambert thereafter (with one exception that I know of, in which Lambeth is the spelling on a later tombstone).While still in Columbus Co., one of the heads of household was listed in a census as Lamberth.Perhaps these variations in the spelling of the name occurred over a large area.
