Migration of the Lamputte family

Thousands of English families in this era began to emigrate the New World in search of land and freedom from religious and political persecution. Although the passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe, those who made the voyage safely were rewarded with opportunities unavailable to them in their homeland.

Lampart, who sailed to Virginia in 1665; and Adam and John Lampart to Pennsylvania in 1764.
