                             Family Group Sheet

 Husband: William A. (AMSBERRY) AMSBURY   age: 72 
    Born: 31-Mar-1789     in: ChautauquaCo, NY                            
    Died: 17-May-1861     in: MarionCo, IA                                
  Buried:                 in: Coal Ridge Cemetery, MarionCo, IA           
  Father: William ORMSBY  
  Mother: Julia DENN  
  Resided in ChautauquaCo, NY 1789/1790;
  Mamakating Town, UlsterCo, NY 1790/1820;
  MasonCo, WV 1820/????; MarionCo, IA ????/1861
  He was living in Mason Co., VA (now WV) in 1820 on page 119 of
  the census; shown as being engaged in manufacturing which may
  have been his shoemaking business.  He is shown with 1 male under
  10; 1 male 26-45 (himself); 3 females under 10 and 1 female 26-45
  (wife?).  He died not legally marry Mary "Polly" Everett until 15
  May 1823. Therefore, it seems logical that the female shown on
  the 1820 Federal Census was his first wife, thus making her death
  in Mason County, VA. The three girls would have been Marietta,
  age 9, Ruth age 3 and Rosetta, possibly age 7.  Who is the male
  child?  He has never been noted, so perhaps he also died.  The
  Western Christian Advocate shows an obituary dated 14 June 1848
  for Mrs. Mary Ann Amsbary, 21, married to M.P. Amsbary (Amsbury)
  who survives; issue infant daughter; reported by J.F. Alkeson
  (Atkeson).  No place is listed.  Is it possible that M.P. Amsbary
  is the male child under 10 on 1820 census?  The J.F. Atkeson
  could be John Atkeson (Atkinson) husband of Rosetta.  His last
  will and testament was brought before the Marion Co., Iowa court
  2 July 1861 and made provision for the sale of land and proceeds
  to be given to some of his children.  Listed were Rosetta
  Atkeson's heirs.  Nothing is shown for an earlier son and nothing
  is shown for heirs of daughter Marietta.
