The Lamb family’s lot is close to those of my grandparents and father, so I often see their graves when I am at the cemetery. In the course of my research, I found that one of the Lambs was married to one of my cousins, specifically, a second cousin, once removed. Not a close relationship, and I don’t remember meeting the lady, although I may have when I was very young.
Fred S. Lamb was born, according to his marriage record, in St. Johns, Michigan in 1862. He immediately preceded my grandfather as probate judge in Wexford County, and I was fascinated by the scales of justice on his footstone when I first saw it.

Althea D. (Lamb) Olsson, 1898-1987, was the oldest child of Fred S. and Delia. She was another faithful member of First Congregational, and often sat in the same pew with her brother, Morris. I remember being slightly surprised when she mentioned “my brother”, and I realized the two were siblings.
James L. Olsson, 1889-1959, Althea’s husband. I don’t remember him at all, I would have been eight when he died.
