An 1874 design for a villa for Henry T. Williams in Essex County, N.J. by Hugh Lamb. Williams was the editor of The Horticulturist and printed Lamb’s drawings in the journal:
Hugh Lamb design for Williams villa, from Google Books
At the time, Lamb’s office was located at 788 Broad Street in Newark, and he advertised exclusively as “H. Lamb.” Thus Williams’s reference to a “Henry Lamb” at that address appears to be an error: no other Newark architect named Lamb been found for this period.
Williams went on to establish a fringe religious group called the Williamites that believed in property ownership by the community (or by Henry T. Williams); prepared for the Second Coming; was persecuted across the West; etc. (see Emery Family Research Association).
