	Family oral histories record that her mother was a Pharsee or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsis Parsee] (a community of people who migrated to India from Persia in the 7th Century).		Family oral histories record that her mother was a Pharsee or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsis Parsee] (a community of people who migrated to India from Persia in the 7th Century).

	There is much circumstantial evidence that ~~this is~~ the ~~case~~, and ~~possibly~~ that her parents might not have been married at the time of ~~her~~ birth:		There is much circumstantial evidence that their mother was native of India (or the region), and quite likely that her parents might not have been married at the time of Anna's birth:

	* ~~she~~ was born in Tannah in India		* Anna was born in Tannah in India
	* the will of her father [[William Lambert\|Lieutenant Colonel William Lambert]] did not mention a wife.		* the will of her father [[William Lambert\|Lieutenant Colonel William Lambert]] did not mention a wife.
	* his will referred to his children as “my natural children"		* his will referred to his children as “my natural children"

	* this appeared to be common, there is a potential second brother of her father, called [[Peter Lambert]] who had children with "his girl" who was Indian.		* this appeared to be common, there is a potential second brother of her father, called [[Peter Lambert]] who had children with "his girl" who was Indian.

			The [https://blogs.bl.uk/untoldlives/2018/12/from-westmorland-to-india-william-lambert-of-the-bombay-army.html British Library post] about William says that his girl was called Bibee Shariffa.

			ChatGPT suggests that:
			* “Bibee” was used by the British (and earlier by the Portuguese) to refer to Indian or Indo-Portuguese women they had relationships with — it comes from the Urdu/Persian/Hindi word Bibi, meaning “lady” or “wife.”
			* Shariffa is not a Parsi (Zoroatrian) name. The name indicates either a Muslim Indian name
			* “Parsee” was sometimes used loosely by British contemporaries to refer to any Persian-speaking or Persian-dressed people, not strictly Zoroastrians. So it is possible her ancestors were Persian Muslims settled in India.

			However, DNA testing does not show any ancestry from Persia (albeit it would be very hard to detect this far back), but there is a 1% match from the Bengal/Bhutan/Bangladesh region. And so far there are no other ancestors who might account for this.
