From an email sent by Plank Apr 5 2002, we have the following -
"Eleazer Amsden was well known in Shelbyville, he served as CountySheriff and County Treasurer. He had a long and fulsome obituary inthe local paper, and a biography in the county gazateer of 1880. Thesesources tell that he was born in Livingston County, New York , 19 June1825, and was the son of Calvin and Miriam (Guile) Amsden, sayingfurther that he (Calvin) was a native of Vermont and she of NewHampshire. ( I believe that the birth palces are reversed, becauseCalvin was born in New Hampshire). And the bio says that they settledin New York state in 1791, at which time Calvin would have been 13!Also says that he--Eleazer-- traveled with Howes Mammoth Circus fromage 14 to 21. He came to Shelby County in 1848, and Calvin and Mariamcame in 1851 according to the bio. Calvin must have died soon after hereached Shelby County. He is not in the 1850 Indiana census.
