Geoff:
Marmalade generally is made from oranges. However, there are a small 
number of brands of Lime Marmalade. Roses, who are very well-known 
for lime cordial, make the best-known version..

I haven't come across lemon marmalade. If lemons get into any preserves, 
it's most likely Lemon Curd which is a thickish spread.
