Bio
Son of William Allen Amsberry of New York and Mary Polly Everett of Vermont. Husband of Jane Ann Coffman of Mason County, West Virginia, married on 01 May 1848 in Gallia County, Ohio. "Lewis Norton Amsberry and Jane Coffman-Amsberry, his good companion, were two more of the grand people of the olden time down on the Ridge. Amid all the joys that came to them, their hands and their hearts were scarred with the cruel instruments of conflict all along the way of life. 'Nort', no man ever made a fight more noble than he. He was resourceful in methods. If one failed, he buckled on his armor and went again into the fierce battle, stouthearted and brave. His heart went out in deep sympathy, and his hand and arm were nerved for action in times of sickness, trials and tribulations which came into the homes of his friends and neighbors. He fought too hard in life's battles, and one day, all pierced and bleeding with wounds, he fell."
