| Notes |
- Lamar was a circuit judge in Georgia. He was the brother of Mirabeau Buonaparte Lamar, the second President of the Republic of Texas.
His friend Judge Iverson L. Harris wrote the inscription on Lamar's tombstone. It reads:
"Sacred to the memory of Lucius Q. C. Lamar, Late Judge of the Ocmulgee Circuit. Who during a brief service of five years discharged the duties of that high office with probity, firmness, assiduity and unquestionable reputation. The devoted lovve of his family, the ardent attachment of personal friends, the admiration of the bar, and the universal approbation of his enlightened administration of justice attest the goodness and eminence of one arrested by a death too early in the bright and useful career in which he had been placed by his native state. Born July 15, 1797. Died July 4, 1834."
