The 14^th Annual Lamb - Morris Joint Family Reunion

 Founded 1994

Saturday, August 16, 2008

on the Swannanoa River Road.
The gathering will take place at Shed #2
(at the bottom of the hill near the swimming pool)
Time: 10 AM - midafternoon

 

The reunion honors the descendants of Marmaduke Lamb and his wife Orpha Rollins, who relocated from Randolph County, NC, to Greene County, TN in the early 1800's. From there, many of their descendants migrated into Western North Carolina in the years immediately following the American Civil War.  The reunion also honors the descendants of Elias and Sarah Morris of Montgomery County, NC, and their sons who served the Confederacy (Zebedee, William, Larkin).  Zebedee and William relocated their families to Buncombe and Madison County, NC, just prior to the Civil War. This is not the Elias Morris who migrated to Kentucky. This Elias Morris died 30 August 1853 in Montgomery County, Pee Dee District.

 
The children of Marmaduke and Orpah Rollins Lamb were:

*Children of John Rollins Lamb (1811-1880)

and Sarah Elizabeth Ealy Lamb (1806-1876):

Children of Elias and Sarah Morris

Zebedee and William moved to Madison County, NC
