!A History of the Pioneer Families of Missouri by Wm. S. Bryan and Robert Rose, Published by Bryan, Brand & Co., St. Louis, Missouri, 1876, page 219: "William T. and James Lamme were sons of Robert Lamme, of Bourbon County, Kentucky. William T. settled in (now) Warren County, Missouri, in 1803. He was First Lieutenant in Nathan Boone's company of rangers, and was afterward Major of a regiment. He married Frances Callaway, daughter of Flanders Callaway, and grand daughter of Daniel Boone, by whom he had ten children: Serena, Zarina, Hulda, Cornelia, Missouri, Josephine, Jackson, Leonidas, Achiles and Napoleon B. Mr. Lamme had a good education, was a fine business man, and left his family in good circumstances at his death. Zarina Lamme married Willis Bryan, a son of David Bryan, who was the first settler within the present limits of Warren County. Hulda married John Bryan, called "Long Jack", on account of his extraordinary height, who was also a son of David Bryan. Missouri married Jesse Caton. Josephine married Campbell Marshall. All of the above are dead except Hulda, who lives with her son, John C., who is Recorder of Franklin County, and a prominent and influential citizen. Achiles Lamme lives in Montana, where he carries on an extensive mercantile business. Napoleon B. lives in California. Serena married Lewis Howell."
