Ruth Ann (Hoff) Lamb is buried in Industry Cemetery, Industry, McDonough Co., IL FRAMED REMEMBRANCE ABRAHAM AND RUTH LAMB'S CHILDREN Ownership: Jay G. Lamb (January 2006) According to "Old Macomb Cemetery, Macomb, Illinois" by Marge Harris, Pg 63: Deborah, daughter of A. & R. Lamb d 1 Sept. 1853, age 2m 28d "Beneath this stone in sweet repose I laid a mothers's (sic) dearest pride A flower that scarce had waked To life and light and beauty Ere it died." This gravestone was not located in the fall of 1989; however, many stones were on the ground that was thickly covered with leaves. According to the compiler, the book was transcribed from file cards located in the vertical file "Macomb - Cemeteries" in the Western University, Macomb, IL. However, the card shows: Deborah Lamb d 11 Sept. 1853, aged 2Ms, 28 days. These death dates do not agree with the following: Deborah Lamb Died 14 Sep. 1855: Aged 2 M. 28 D. (framed rememberance) Deborah Lamb b 16 Jun. 1855, d 14 Sep 1855 (Bible record)

A gentle voice said ‘come’!
And with farewells unspoken,
They calmly entered home.
