STEPHEN LAMBERT
	Stephen Lambert resides twelve miles north from Republic where
he does general farming and raises stock.  He is distinctly a pioneer
of the west, as he has passed most of his life on the frontiers, ever
laboring to open up and develop the country, manifesting a commendable
zeal in his efforts.
	Stephen Lambert was born in Dakota, in February 1833, being the
son of Stephen and Catherine (Gody) Lambert.  The father was a native of
Canada, and the mother was born in Dakota, being descended from Indian
and white ancestors.  The parents reared ten children, Madelin, Peter,
Jane, Joseph, Daniel, Mary, William, Stephen, who is the subject of this
article, Margret and John.  They are living in different portions of the 
country, but the parents have both died.  Stephen was reared on the 
frontier, where there was little or no advantages in an educational line,
consequently he was not enabled to gain much knowledge from books.  At
the early age of seventeen he started in life for himself, his first 
employment being for the Hudson's Bay Company.  He was operating in Canada
constantly until 1888, when he came to his present location, since which
time he has constantly engaged in farming and raising stock.
	In 1873 occurred the marriage of Mr. Lambert and Miss Mary Peter,
an Indian woman, who was born and reared in Washington.  To this marriage
the following name children have been born: Sarah, Angeline, deceased; 
Willie, deceased; Willie, Addie, Joseph, Alphonzo, Mose, Emily, Mary J.,
Johnnie and Oliver.  Mr. Lambert has an estate of one half section, and
has prospered well in his labors in the financial world.  In politics
he is allied with the Republican party and is an active participant in 
the campaigns.  Mr. lambert and his family are all members of the Catholic
church.  He has taken great pains to give each one of his children a
good education, which is a commendable thing, especially when we consider
that Mr. Lambert himself was denied that privilege.  The children are at
home and residing near, and among those married is Sarah, whose husband
is John Daniels.  Mr. Daniels was born in Texas, on October 7, 1869,
being the son of William and Eliza (Clemmons) Daniels.  Mr. Daniels has
one sister, Rettie, adn one brother, Thomas.  He was reared on the frontier
ans had little opportunity to gain an education, but owing to keen
observation has become a well informed man.  About 1899, he came to the 
vicinity where he now resides and settled on his land, fourteen miles
north from republic.  He has a half section.  The marriage of Mr. Daniels
and Miss Sarah Lambert was solemnized on November 28, 1892, and to them
two children have been born, Katie and Mary.
