HI

I am looking for any info on the Lamberty family. My great grandfather emmigrated to Edinburgh around the 1900s with his family. He was a medical officer. His name was Winston Maurice Lamberty, brothers were Henry, Radley. I think there may havev been a lane in Port louis called Lamberty Lane but not sure of the significance.

Any info or ideas?

Hi

My father attended the Royal High School in Edinburgh where he knew a boy called Winston Lamberty who went on to become a dentist. He had a dental surgery in Polwarth Gardens, Edinburgh from about the early '50s, and was our family dentist for several years. I don't know if this is any help?

Hi

Thanks. That was my grandfather. Sadly I never got to meet him... was he a good dentist?

Hi Elizabeth

I'm sure he was, but we changed to one nearer our home when I was about 7. I do still remember him though - dentistry wasn't as "pain-free" then (early 60s)as it is nowadays! My mother - who is now almost 87 - was talking about him only recently.

What part of the world are you in?

I am in Stirling. I was adopted at birth and only in the last 5 years found my birth father who was Winston Lamberty's son, hence the interest in the family history.... and Mauritius. I have only got back as far as Winston's father.

Anyway, thanks for your reply.

Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth

I wish you luck with your search; if you like I will ask my Mum for anything she remembers about him? Sometimes little bits of info can add up to a bigger picture and might help you to have an idea of what he was like. If you want to send me your email address to Liza_macdonald@hotmail.com we can carry on this conversation if you like.

I was very interested in your post when I read it. I am one of Winston Lamberty's sibling's grand children. Winston's father was called Henry Gilbert Lamberty and was a doctor in Mauritius. The road they stayed in was named after the family, Lamberty Road, in a small place outside of Port Louis (I visted Mauritius to trace the family history myself and it is a beautiful place). Winston was a dentist and had his own pratice at Polwarth Gardens until he retired. He was one of 9 children, all who are now deceased. If you want to ask me any specific information I will do my best to answer it for you (or we can do this via email if you want to rpivide this).

Thanks that is interesting. I know that Henry Gilbert Lamberty married Louisa Torrie Murphy in Edinburgh in 1908 and that he died in 1962. On his marriage certificate it says his father was William Lamberty and mother Helena Gaspard. Do you kow anything about them or what they did in Mauritius? I can't seem to get any further back than this and I would love to know what their story was.

Dear Elizabeth
