I'd like to trace the Irish origin of my great grandparents: William Lambert (born around 1817) and his wife Mary Corbett (born around 1826), both Irish. They emigrated to Argentina in 1856 or before.
Thanks,
Guillermo

Hi Guillermo
The closest baptism/birth record of William Lamvert 1817 is a baptism 1816 Galway on www.rootsireland.ie/
However for Mary Corbett 1826 + - 1 year there are 10 matches but none are in Galway
The only marriage record of William Lambert & Mary Corbett is 1779 in Limerick!

Thanks Col, I've got that Lambert from Galway and some Mary Lambert's born around 1826.
Probably they got married in Argentina. I'll see. Esteban, one of their sons, is the founder of Monte Maiz, a town in the province of Cordoba, Argentina.
I'll try to get more info. Thanks again.

Thanks,
Yes, there's a William Lambert arrived in Buenos Aires 1844/07/04, this could be the man. Unfortunatelly, I cannot find other data about him.
Probably is the same Guillermo Lambert registered in the Argentinean Census 1869, living in Las Heras. In the same census page, there's 14 years old Catalina Lambert.
Our William Lambert and Mary Corbett, had 4 children: Juan Patricio, Esteban , Catalina and Maria Elena from 1855 to 1861.
In census 1869, Maria Cobett, Juan Patricio, Esteban and Maria Elena Lambert are in the same page, but not Guillermo and Catalina.

Guillermo, do you know when William Lambert died and where ? It is possible that a death registration or cert gives more information about his birth year and maybe even more information
Also have you read this ?http://www.irishgenealogy.com.ar/genealogia/L/Lambert/William.php
born 1824 County Cork, died 1 Feb 1895

This is interesting I wonder was William one of the 115 passengers and also came from County Wexford, an emigration scheme organised by Wexford born merchant James Petitt, all sailed to Liverpool first to board the William Peile there on the 13 April 1844
Their ages seem to match your William too
Have a read , I think we are on to something here
http://books.google.ie/books?id=agfvVQnBu9MC&pg=PA629&lpg=PA629&dq=pass…
When you check the Tithe applotment books you will see a lot of Lamberts in county Wexford, more common there then anywhere else http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie

Thanks,
Our William Lambert probably died in Las Heras, Chascomus or Canuelas. I'm working on that, but it will take time.
Yes, I know that line of Lambert (William Lambert & Mary). Their descendants are living in Saladillo, Buenos Aires Argentina. I'm in contact with them. No relation proved.
James (Santiago) and William (Guillermo), sons of William and Mary, arrived in Buenos Aires around 1863/64 and settled in Saladillo.

Thanks,
I've read pages 629/30 of "Ireland and the Americas" vol 2. Murphy's descendants are still living in Argentina. I've met one of them, Patricio Murphy, some time ago. There was a cargo vessel with his name.
Murphy settled in Salto and Rojas, province of Buenos Aires. Our Lambert settled in the same province but in Chascomus area, around 300 km South East of Salto. A big distance in those times.
I've took note about the William Lamberts registered in the Tithe Applotment Books.
Our William Lambert is probably that one registered as passenger of William Peile's voyage in 1844.
Do you know if there's any other data about the 115 Irish emmigrants who sailed to Liverpool that year?
lambert
-
Yes, there's many Lambert from Wexford and I have a good chance to be related with them. There's a "The Lambert DNA project" trying to find relations between Lamberts around the world. I'm member and probably a sound relation could be found through that test.
I know that Ireland XO has a Irish DNA roots program now. Probably in the future will be a link between this 2 projects.

I am trying to find who the 150 people were who traveled on the William Peile, and see can I get more information on William Lambert, I am 80% convinced he was one of them

There's a list of passengers at www.irlandeses.org/peile.htm. The Journeys of William Peile 1843-1851, by Edmundo Murray.
There's a William Lambert in 1844's voyaje, but there's no other data.

No more info about William there or anywhere else, but I am in touch with some Lambert families in Argentina and I will ask around

Thanks Annemarie,
I still have to search in some archives in Argentina about Esteban Lambert, founder of Monte Ma?z, there's some genealogical data there.
Also, in some point the DNA test will work.
I'll try go to Argentina by the end of next year.

In Maria Elena Lambert's baptism certificate (1861) there's a Reverend Eleuterio (Eleutherius) Lambert as a witness. He was not present at the moment and replaced for a representative.
Probably he was in Ireland at that time, part of the church and relative of William Lambert, father of Maria Elena..
There's a way to know if Eleuterio (Eleutherius) Lambert was a priest in Ireland in 1861?
lambert
-
I see a reference to a brother Lambert, Eleutherius (Br.) on a Flemish website http://abs.lias.be/Query/detail.aspx?ID=343343
Leuven Belgium Archiving system: it seems to be about the Fransciscan Monks called the Minderbrothers - (minder in Dutch means less but it could also refer to a place name)
The records there date all the way from 1600 to current, will have a read on their site tomorrow and see what I can find out,. good job I speak Dutch :)
Mallow Cork

Lambert is a pretty common surnane in Belgium and France. Probably because of Saint Lambert of Maastricht.
Thanks, let see
lambert
-
Yes Lambert is common in Belgium but this article is clearly talking about a Eleutherius Lambert and that is not common in Belgium, I wonder where the BR stands for behind his name , brother maybe
It is a religious record that mentions him, pity there is no clear date, will look elsewhere
BTW I dont think the 1844 William was our William , wasn;t his son born in Ireland long after this date ?

The first son of William and Mar?a (Mary?) Corbett, Juan Patricio Lambert, was born in 1855 according the baptism record, left by Fr. Edward Kavanagh in the church of Nuestra Senora de la Merced de Chascomus.
Same day, February 23, 1856, he baptized other 14 children from Irish immigrants. Kavanagh (d 1880) from the diocese of Ferns, Wexford, emigrated to Argentina after the famine and was working with the Irish settlers in Buenos Aires country side.
The witnesses of Juan Patricio baptism were Eleonora Makinen,probably wrong written and Juan (John) Donelly.
The only William (Guillermo) Lambert in passengers records I could find wat that one from 1844.
Acording the baptism records Willaim Lambert was born circa 1817.

Hi John, thanks for your interest in my research. As you can see in the previous messages, I considered William Lambert, who emigrated to Argentina aboard the "William Peile" in 1844, as a probable ancestor. I didn't know he was from Kilrane and part of that famous group of youngsters. Please, could you tell me when he was born and any other data about him?
Looks like he married Mary Corbett in Argentina.
Thanks,
Guillermo P. Lambert

Hi Guillermo
i will try and get some information on William for you, my cousin has been working on a family tree i will contact her to see what she has. In the mean time if you want to look up the Irish Census for 1901, Lambert, Wexford, Ballyygillane you will see where William was born with whom I would think is his nephew his living there Patrick aged 52
also if you google the Kilrane Boys you will get some more info on the people who left Kilrane in 1844 while William is not mentioned by name in the famous song he is one of the four from Ballygillane
This may take a little time but Iwill be back to you

Hi Gillermo
i was mistaken William is named in the song as are all of the boys who left Kilrane in 1844 and one of the other names from Ballygillane is John Donnelly who you have mentioned earlier as a witness so are we on the right track, I have attached a copy of the song and a full list of all the boys to follow. I will also forward on a copy of a letter from William's son Stephen/ Esteban in spanish when I get it. He also visited Kilrane in the early 1900s and donated a statute of the Blessed Sacrament to the local church.

Hi John,
I found a very interesting document: Ireland & Latin America: A Cultural History. Can be found at: www.zora.uzh.ch/45125/1/MURRAY.pdf.
In his Thesis, Edmundo Murray, publish a set of letters from John Murphy, one of the Kilrane Boys.
The letters are from page 323. The first one is about the 1844 trip to Argentina.

Hi Guillermo
yes funny you should mention Murrays artical as my Mother has a copy of his book Becoming Irlandes and I happen to look at it last night as ther is a mention of Philip Lambert on page 170 of the book whom the attached letter from Stephen Lambert is addressed to. Murphys came form the townland of Hayesland there are adjoining farmhouses and my mother was born in one, I am related some way to the Murphys on both on my mother and fathers side.take a look at the letter and we will talk then.

Hi John,
Thanks for the letter is a very appreciated document.
Who is John, mentioned there?
I assume that Patrick is the same found in Irish Census 1901 and 1911.
according The tithe Applotment 1833. Theres's a Stephen Lambert in Ballygelane. Is him William's father?
Regards,
Guillermo
lambert

Hi Guillermo
i am attaching a family tree that was done by my cousin, the Stephen Lambert is William's father born in 1768 the Patrick Lambert the letter is written to Stehpen's cousin and the John is the son of another Stehpen Lambert (Patrick's) brother and my Grandfather. That Stephen moved to Killilane when he got married where I now live, you can also check the census for Killilane. Hope this all makes sense and it was Philip Lambert mentioned in Murray' book William's brother not Patrick as I mentioned earlier.
On the family tree the date of birth for Stephen seems to be incorrect at 1875 which would make William around 58 yrs when he was born anyway take a look

Hi John,
Thanks for all the family info.
With the new data, I'm going to put all together and I'll send you a draft soon.
By the way, I've found something about Re. Fr Walter Lambert at: papastronsaytext.blogspot.ca
Esteban Lambert died in 1935 in Argentina, La Cumbre, C?rdoba. He was buried in Monte Ma?z, C?rdoba, Argentina.
I'll try to get a picture of his grave.

Hi John,
Please find attached a family tree with the Argentinean part of the family up to William's sons. William was translated to Guillermo when he arrived to Argentina.
I'm also putting together an extended version with many references and annexes.
My key subject is to find concrete proof about Domingo Lambert relation, because looks like Catalina Lambert was unmarried at that time. Most probably he was in an orphanage. All I have so far, are family memories.

Hi John,
As you can see in that part of the family tree, probably only Catalina Lambert had descendsants, but her sons has last name Duarte.Then up to this point the Lambert last name is gone, except for Domingo Lambert, who appeared in scene as born in Buenos Aires, Argentina 1882. Father: Carlos Patricio Lambert and mother: Catalina Isabel Lambert.
I'm working on the extended version.

Hi John,
Thanks for the add. That add was most probably paid by the Asociaci?n Cat?lica Irlandesa de Argentina, who executed Esteban Lambert's testament.
I've attached a draft of the William Lambert family history.
I'm working on the relation between Esteban and Domingo Lambert. This is a point of inflection for me, because is the link between the Irish family and my Argentinean Lamberts.
I'll take probably months.

Hi,
About Eleuterius Lambert, looks like at that time (mid 19th century) all names were translated to Spanish in Argentina.
William Lambert had a brother called Walter who was a priest. Translated to Spanish in those years, Walter was Gualterio and/or Eleuterio.
Finally our William Lambert was that who sailed on the William Peille in 1844..
Thanks for all your time and good advices.
