[Sampit - name of a community and a cemetery in Georgetown County]

Informant: none listed
County of Death: Charleston
Certificate Number: 010605
Note 1: Sand Pitt (Sampit) MAY refer only to the place of removal from Charleston, not the cemetery in which Martha was buried. However, bodies shipped a considerable distance seem usually to have travelled by rail; "burial or removal" often is followed by the name of the depot to which a body was delivered. Sampit is not known to have been on a rail line in 1915; therefore Sampit is not known to have been the name of a depot. Martha's father, Philip Ralston Lambert, was born in Georgetown County and is listed as head of a family in Georgetown County in the censuses of 1900, 1910, and 1920. For a while, he owned a store and a farm near Sampit. Philip was buried in 1937 in Clarendon County, SC, where he had lived his last years with one of his daughters. Three of his brothers, Jack, Richard (father-in-law of Martha), and Allen were buried, a few years after Martha's death, in Sampit Methodist Church Cemetery. The weight of evidence is that Martha is buried with her kinfolk in Sampit Methodist Cemetery. No marker is known for her grave.
Note 2: Martha married Nathaniel "Nathan" "Gray" Lambert, a son of Richard Lambert and Lila Margaret "Dolley" Lambert Lambert. Martha and Nathan were first cousins. They had two children, Wyman Marion Lambert Sr. and Louise Lambert.
Note 3: Philip Ralston's Lambert's first wife, Polly Newberry Lambert, c. 1864, NC - Sep 1893, Georgetown Co., SC, was Martha's mother. Polly's grave is unknown.
