Thomas Lamb House, also known as "My Home," is a historic home located at Kenton, Kent County, Delaware. The house dates to about 1855, and is a two-story, three-bay, side hall plan frame dwelling in the Greek Revival style. It has a long and low rear wing with a porch. Both sections have gable roofs. Also on the property are a contributing barn with stable, a frame milk house, and a privy.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1] The house was demolished between 1992 and 2002, and the milk house between 2002 and 2006.
