Notities over Henry Lamb

Henry was the son of Henry and Elizabeth LAMB (nee LINSLEY). He was a Private in the NSW Corps and arrived in Sydney in 1791 on the ship "Albermarle". He enlisted on 29 June 1789 in England and was discharged on 24 April 1803 in Sydney. Henry was assigned a Convict housekeeper Elizabeth CHAMBERS whom he later married when she became free. He was an Overseer, flirstly with Thompson and then with the Reverend Robert Cartwright, who performed his marriage ceremony to Elizabeth Chambers.

Henry was granted 25 acres of land at Windsor which were lost in floods. He was later granted 70 acres at Portland Head (North Sackville) but was burnt out by aborigines. Then he received a grant of land at Richmond Hill which he later sold to his son-in-law John EZZEY. He became a Constable and managed the Aboriginal Settlement at Rooty Hill. Later (by 1828) he became a Gardener to John Blaxland (the Explorer) at 'Newington' near Parramatta.

He obtained a grant of 80 acres at Kurrajong Brush in 1810 from Governor Macquarie and was one of the settlers who signed the address to Governor Macquarie in December 1810 (see Colonial Secretary's Index). Henry was given another grant on the North Shore (opposite the present day Royal North Shore Hospital), but he did not take up this grant, possibly due to the fact that he was moved to Windsor at about the same time.

Constables were the parish policeman and were appointed by the vestry. The appointment being confirmed by the Justices and they supervised the 'Watch & Ward', maintained the local prison and the stocks, removef interant strangers, apprenticed pauper children and were included in the training of the local miltia and had many other duties. Any parishioner might be nominated to act as a Constable. It was not a popular job and the parishioner chosen often opted to pay someone else to act in his place.

Henry and Elizabeth had a family of three children,

i. Rebecca LAMB b. 19 Nov 1797 our direct ancestor married John EZZEY.

ii. Henry (Harry) LAMB b. 1800 married (1) Charlotte BOGG and had two sons (2) Mary Ann BENTLEY and had three sons.

<p>iii.John LAMB, b. 1803, Portland Head NSW Australia, d. 1849, NSW Australia

Henry died at Richmond Hill in 1839. His death at ‘Curryjong’ was no doubt on the grant now his daughter’s home, and where his Ezzy descendants still remain. On the title deeds to that farm may be seen Macquarie’s signature.
