Meet the Sellers The Estate of Eva May Lambert **Harrisville, West Virginia | 1933–2026** Eva May Lambert was a lifelong resident of Harrisville, West Virginia, where she and her late husband, Joe Lee Lambert, were active in business, historic preservation, and their community. A 1951 graduate of Harrisville High School, Eva May was a 1946 Golden Horseshoe recipient and was named Princess of Ritchie County in 1949. She worked alongside her husband for many years at Joe Lambert Trucking Inc. The couple also owned the historic Stone Building in Harrisville, which they opened as The Heritage Inn in 1992. Eva May had a particular interest in history and preservation. She helped establish the Thomas Harris Museum in Harrisville, an accomplishment for which she received the West Virginia Hero Award in 2006. She was also an avid genealogist, tracing her family history back to the 1600s, and was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution and Daughters of American Pioneers. Eva May and Joe shared a passion for collecting fine antiques, quality furniture, and unusual pieces not commonly found in this region. Their appreciation for history, craftsmanship, and beautiful furnishings is reflected in the remarkable collection being offered in this auction. **We are honored to have been entrusted with presenting the Estate of Eva May Lambert and invite you to discover the many wonderful treasures from a lifetime of collecting.** *Fouss Auction & Appraisal LLC*
