Excerpt from The Homes of Our Ancestors in Stonington, Conn All my life, I have heard and enjoyed the incidents and anecdotes, connected with the old houses referred to within this book, and believing that others would appreciate them also, I have endeavored to arrange them for publication, and most sincerely thank all the friends who have so kindly helped to make this work possible. I trust all errors and omissions will be pardoned, and that it will prove acceptable, as it is intended to be a companion book to my father's "History of Stonington," which was devoid of illustrations.

Lambert provided valuable descriptions of the general history of the area and various towns, detailed specific events, and discussed numerous facets of early American life: religious, political and social. There is a poem, entitled "Old Milford," taken from the Connecticut Gazette, Vol. I, No. 4, 1835, as well as a "History of Milford, Connecticut," written by Lambert in June, 1836 for Historical Collections of Connecticut by John W. Barber. Neither the poem nor the sketch of Milford appears in the printed version.
