Lambert Hepting was related to my father's side of the family and he was a watch and clock maker who lived at Murray Place
Stirling, Scotland. In 1913 he was accidentally shot by his 7 year old daughter, Mary, whilst he was clearing a drawer out in a room at the back of his jewellers shop
at 8 Murray place, Stirling. He placed the loaded gun on a sideboard and she picked it up, pointed it at him and playfully pulled the trigger. He died in Stirling Infirmary about a week later after seeming to make a good recovery. His business was named Hepting and Farrar. Farrar being his partner.

He had a son named Duncan Hepting but I don't think the son had any children. You can read all about Lambert, in the Stirling Observer newspaper 1913 , not sure what week. His father was also Lambert, a German immigrant watchmaker from Neukirch, in the Black Forest. The Heptings of Stirling were also related by marriage to Peter Ketterer, another famousGerman clockmaker of that period.
