We utilize the Lie¨CTress¨¦ linearization method to obtain linearizing point transformations of certain autonomous nonlinear second-order ordinary differential equations contained in the Painlev¨¦¨CGambier classification. These point transformations are constructed using the Lie point symmetry generators admitted by the underlying Painlev¨¦¨CGambier equations. It is also shown that those Painlev¨¦¨CGambier equations which have a few Lie point symmetries and hence are not linearizable by this method can be integrated by a quadrature. Moreover, by making use of the partial Lagrangian approach we obtain time dependent and time independent first integrals for these Painlev¨¦¨CGambier equations which have not been reported in the earlier literature. A comparison of the results obtained in this paper is made with the ones obtained using the generalized Sundman linearization method.
