HENRY AMBLER, who was for many years a leading member of the bar of Henry
County, has now retired from the active practice of his profession, devoting his
time and attention mainly to his large real-estate and other interests in
Omaha, but retaining his residence in Mt. Pleasant, where he and his family are
highly esteemed. He is of English ancestry and was born in 1821. His early life
was spent in Allegheny County, Pa.; he studied law and was admitted to the
bar in 1848, and practiced in Southeastern Ohio, residing in Salem. He has been
a resident of Henry County since 1856, and was actively engaged in the
practice of his profession until 1885. In 1862 he was admitted to the bar of the
Supreme Court of the United States, and was as successful in his practice before
that court as in the State courts. For a number of years he was Professor of
Law in the Iowa Wesleyan University. His family consists of his wife, Louisa
P. Ambler (formerly Phillips),and their children—Nellie Ambler Campbell,
Fannie Ambler Higley, Jane Ambler,Pauline Ambler (deceased), Glaucus S. Ambler and
