Building was named as a memorial to the Lambert name. He was a plantation owner, whom upon death in 1839 Virginia, freed his slaves (about 30). The freed slaves also were given enough to buy land in Ohio, for all of them to live, called the Lambert Land Settlement. A highway marker relating the story was installed in 2004. Sadly, with the sadness of the times we live, someone has stolen the marker.

To international buyers: if you ship to a US address, shipping for most items is free - unfortunately I can only use eBay international Shipping outside the US. With all the new customs, tariffs, taxes, it is not possible for me to ship any longer at simple First Class Letter. Also, items have begun taking 2 to 4 months to reach their destination, and sometimes they are simply disappearing. eBay International provides tracking and insurance so that we both are covered all the way through. Perhaps shopping for a few additional items will make it more worthwhile for buyers, as shipping cost will remain unchanged. A multiple item purchase too can receive a discount. Thanks
