buried next to Dow & Giles Lamb

Wife of James Adam Lamb

Info I received below I did change add more to the name and the dates.
I was told this was the wife of Jason A lamb but in the flower notes it don't list Giles F as a son and now I believe the info that Kay sent below is correct.

I believe that this grave is Malissa Almira/Elvira Smotherman Lamb, who married J A Lamb 6 Nov 1868 in Rutherford Co., TN (Tenn, Marriages 1851-1900). She was the daughter of Rev. Isom Green Smotherman and Charity Hester. Malissa and J.A. Lamb can be found on the 1870 census in Rutherford Co., TN with their son Benjamin (they are listed as MElissa and JAMES). Then on the 1880 census in Henry Co., TN with their sons, Benjamin and Giles F. I believe that Malissa died before 1900 and that J.A.Lamb is on the 1900 census in Henry Co., TN as widowed born Jun 1847 (#96) with Benjamin Lamb and family and Giles Lamb and family listed #100 & #101 on the same page.

The only record I have with his first name is the 1870 census as "James".

Also Malissa Smotherman Lamb was born @1846 not 1808 and in Tennessee.

Let me know if you have different information.

Thanks,
