Robert Henry Lamborn was born on October 29, 1835 or 1836, in Chester, Pennsylvania.

He was a metallurgist, engineer, and collector. He studied mining and metallurgy at the University of Geissen, Germany where he obtained his Ph.D. degree. He also took a course at the École des Mines, Paris, returning to the U.S in the early 1860s. He engaged in the railway business in Pennsylvania, and subsequently became interested in the construction of railways in southwestern states, and was an active promoter and large owner of the Mexican Central Railway. He also served as secretary of the American Iron and Steel Association. Through his enterprises he amassed a fortune and retired from active business about 1887, devoting himself to scientific and literary studies. He collected thousands of objects from six continents pertaining to fine art, history, ethnology, biology, geology, and mineralogy. He traveled constantly and never owned a home, staying in luxury hotels throughout the U.S. and Europe. That was the reason for donating his collections to various museums, e.g., the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the American Museum of Natural History, New York, the Pennsylvania Museum and School of Industrial Art (now the Philadelphia Museum of Art), the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, and the newly founded Penn Museum. Lamborn helped found the Penn Museum as a vice president of the fundraising body known as the Archaeological Association. He requested that the donated objects be displayed to teach visitors about the history of human development and the diversity of cultures.

He died unmarried on January 14, 1895, in New York City, New York.

Eustache Lambert naquit vers 1619 en France. Il émigra en Nouvelle-France au début des années 1640 et gagna sa vie comme interprète, cultivateur et marchand de fourrures.

William Busby Lambe was born on January 9, 1826, in Montreal, Quebec.

He was a prominent Montreal lawyer and painter. He graduated from McGill University (B.C.L., 1850) and was called to the Quebec and Ontario bars in 1851. He practised in Montreal for many years. In 1882, he was appointed to the office of Collector of Provincial Revenue. He took an active part in the development of McGill University and was one of the founders of the Montreal Art Association. He owned land in Pointe-au-Pic in the Charlevoix-Est Regional County, including the property on which the present Manoir Richelieu was built. In 1866, he was one of the founders of the Protestant Union church in Murray Bay, Quebec. As a talented painter, he beautifully captured many local scenes. In 1896, he published the book "Handbook, Duties on Successions in Province of Quebec with Text of Statutes in English and French and Forms of Declarations". He was the father of Lawrence Morris Lambe (1863 –1919), a well-known Canadian paleontologist and geologist.

In 1852, he married Margaret Jones Morris (1828-1896). He died on August 10, 1905, in Montreal, Quebec.

Lawrence Morris Lambe was born on August 27, 1863, in Montréal, Quebec, the son of William Busby Lambe (1826-1905), a prominent Montreal lawyer and painter.

He was a Canadian geologist, paleontologist, ecologist, and author. He studied at the Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston, Ontario (1880–1883). He worked for the Geological Survey of Canada. His published work, describing the diverse and plentiful dinosaur discoveries from the fossil beds in Alberta, brought dinosaurs into the public eye and helped usher in the Golden Age of Dinosaurs in the province. During this period, between the 1880s and World War I, dinosaur hunters from all over the world converged on Alberta. In 1902, Lambe described Canada's first dinosaur finds, various species of Monoclonius. In 1917, he created the genus Edmontosaurus. Lambeosaurus, a well-known hadrosaur was named after him as a tribute, in 1923. In addition to paleontology, Lambe discovered a number of invertebrate species ranging from Canada to the Pacific Northwest. He published numerous articles and books related to his discoveries, e.g., several "Bibliography of Canadian Zoology" editions, “Sponges From the Atlantic Coast of Canada” (1896), and “Catalogue of the Recent Marine Sponges of Canada and Alaska” (1900).

In 1892, he married Mabel Maud Schreiber (1869-1930). He died on March 12, 1919, in Ottawa, Ontario.
