Joseph Hamilton Lambert (December 1, 1825 – November 12, 1909), was an American pioneer of Oregon and an orchardist who developed the Lambert cherry. A native of Indiana, he also served as a county commissioner in Multnomah and Clackamas counties in Oregon.
==Early life==
Lambert was born on December 1, 1825 in Vigo County, Indiana, a few miles northeast of Terre Haute.〔 He was raised on a farm by his parents, Hugh and Nancy (''née'' McClain) Lambert.〔 At the age of 20, Lambert left Indiana for Iowa, where he worked and went to school until 1849, when he headed west again.〔 He traveled on the Oregon Trail, arriving at the Philip Foster Farm at the end of the Barlow Road in Oregon Country on September 14, 1850.〔 He spent the winter in Salem.〔 In the spring of 1851, he traveled to Yreka, California for the California Gold Rush, but he soon returned to Oregon's Willamette Valley, where he worked in a sawmill and for Meek & Luelling in Milwaukie hauling logs.〔 Next he joined the surveying team of Mr. Ives.〔 He helped lay out the Willamette Meridian north from Portland to Puget Sound, and the Willamette Baseline, the first standard parallel in Oregon. He also surveyed a few tiers of townships, including Salem.〔 He returned to working in sawmills and as a log hauler until 1853, when he was again employed by William Meek and Seth Luelling, this time in their orchard business.〔 In 1854, Lambert married Clementine Miller and they took up a Donation Land Claim in Powell Valley.〔
