Phillipston, Worcester, MA
Israel of Templeton and Hannah Sawyer, Sept 10, 1787, in Templeton.

His ten children according to Marion Minard's, "Nine Generations" 1. Israel Lamb, 2. Jason Lamb, 3. Abel Lamb (5/8/1774-6/2/1861 Mass) (sp. Lydia), 4. Jonas Lamb (8/26/1768-), 5. Joseph Lamb 6. Justin Lamb, 7. Martha Lamb, 8. Holly Lamb, 9. Sally Lamb (7/7/1776-1847), and 10. Susan Lamb, were said to be Lucy's. The dates shown here are also, from Mass. Vital Statistic's too, and they were from Templeton, Mass. Plus, gravestones on Find A Grave.

Below are some children not listed they may just be using a first, or middle name or name baptized with. So they may be some of they same kids. Plus, some of the women may be daughters in laws. The 9 whose birth or death dates are accounted for are: Abel (1774-1861), Isaac (1772-), Levi (1778-), Jonas (1768-), Sally (1776-1847), Lucy (1782-1849), Anna (1782-730/1849), Deborah (1787-1826) & Asahel (1770-1869). I found nothing on these 7 kids, Israel, Jason, Joseph, Justin, Martha, Holly, & Susan. The birth dates are ranging from 1770-1787 Israel married Hannah in 1787 so most (8) of the children are Lucy's.

I believe Israel was in the Civil War and I'm trying to verify this. There are many Israel's and they don't show the date of birth with the records.
