in Maysville, Armstrong Co., Pa., son of Adam and Mary (Ashbaugh) Lambing.Adam Lambing was born in Pennsylvania, and died in this state Dec. 28,
1894. His widow, also a native of Pennsylvania, now eighty-six years old,
makes her home with her son. She and her husband had three children, two of
whom survive; S. A. and Mrs. T. C. Almes, who has two children.S. A. Lambing attended the common schools of his district until his
nineteenth year, and then worked on a farm for the succeeding two years. He
then obtained employment on the Pennsylvania railroad and worked for the
company seventeen and a half years, being assistant section foreman during
about twelve years of that period. In 1891 he purchased two and three quarters
acres of land on which there was a house, but later disposed of it, and in
1907 bought 110 square rods, on which he has his home at present. The
residence is a comfortable one, and there is also a store on the premises. In
the same year that he purchased his lot, he bought out the general store of C.

postmaster of Maysville, now Long Run, and is the present incumbent of the
office. The Lutheran Church holds his membership. Mr. Lambing is a cousin of
Father Andrew A. Lambing, mentioned elsewhere in this history.Source: Page 747, Armstrong County, Pa., Her People, Past and
