The ancestors of the first family to use the name lammestone were thought to have lived among the Boernician tribe of ancient Scotland. They lived in the parish of Coldingham, Berwickshire. They derived their name from the name of their manor, Lumsden. The name means Lumm's Valley in Old English, from the personal name Lumm.Before the printing press and the first dictionaries appeared, names and other words were often spelled differently every time they were written. lammestone has appeared under the variations Lumsden, Lumsdane, Lummsdaine, Lammestone and many more.

The Scots who crossed the Atlantic were often on the run from poverty as well as persecution. They brought little with them, and often had nothing of their home country to hand down to their children. In the 20th century, Clan societies and other patriotic Scottish organizations have helped the ancestors of Boernician Scots to recover their lost national legacy. Many of those families went on to make significant contributions to the rapidly developing colonies in which they settled. Early North American records indicate many people bearing the name lammestone were among those contributors: Henry Lumsden, who settled in Maryland in 1715; James Lumsden settled in Virginia in 1774. The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Dei dono sum quod sum Motto Translation: By the bounty of God I am what I am.
