Lemuel T. Lamborn, who is the owner of "Terrace Farm," a fine property of 100 acres situated in section 14 Butler township, now resides in a comfortable home in the village of Winona, retired from all business activity. Mr. Lamborn was born February 14, 1841, and has spent hislife in the county. He is a son of Clayton and Hannah (Test) Lamborn.

The Lamborn family is one of those which for generations, ahs held to the principles of the Society of Friends and has been of the strict body amoung them, knownas Wilburites, which adopted the suggestions of John Wilbur, a godly man of that organization, who insisted that modern dress and falling off from the old customs of the sect must be guarded against by still closer adherence to early forms and customs.

...Clayton Lamborn was born in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, but was reared in Chester County, where he lived until 1835, when he came to Columbiana County, Ohio. Here he taught school for a time and later became a farmer in Perry township, owning a farm of 100 acres. He died aged 85 years, having lived a long, worthy and consistent life. He married Hannah Test, who was born in 1811 in Butler township, Columbiana County, ohio, where she died aged 79 years. She was a dughter of Isaac B. Test, who was born in New Jersey and came here with his father, Zacharias Test, in 1803. The father entered land forhimself and his three sons, Isac B., Samuel and Benjamin, each receiving 160 acres, the most of it being in butler township. Clayton and Hannah Lamborn had three children, viz: Martha S., who died aged 17 years; Lemuel T., of this sketch; and Margaret E., who married Thomas Harmer, of Pennsville, Morgan County, Ohio."

Lemuel T. Lamborn, our immediate subject, remained on his father's farm and attended the local schools until 21 years of age and tehn famred for a space of four years for an sunt, after which he worked in the roofing business for two years with C.H. Stratton, who did an extensive business over the county, including Salem and East Liverpool. When he withdrew from this business, he bought a small farm of some 40 acres in the vicinity of Winona and lived there for eight years and then purchased the farm of 100 acres, which his son-in-law now operates. For some years Mr. Lamborn was engaged in sheep raising, but later devoted his attention to general farming and dairying. At one time has land was quite heavily timbered in some parts, but now the larger part is under cultimvation. Under the good management it has received the property has been converted into one of the best farms of the township.
