This book has no cover, and no index, and no author. I bought it on Ebay; it just has the insides, but it is full of Indiana biographies. I am not researching this family, just thought I would share. I do not know anymore about these families or these surnames. NOTE: I don’t know if there is any additional mention of this family in the book, it has no index. I do not want to sell this book. I am typing the biographies from it. Typed by Lora Radiches: Other surnames mentioned in the biography of MARION H. AMICK are, Amick, McCaslin, Heaton, Carmichael, Glick. MARION H. AMICK, of Columbus, one of the active young business men of that city, has had three principal interests during his career, the first being farm life, the second his service during the World war, and more recently a successful insurance business at Columbus. He was born in Jennings County, Indiana, January 14, 1895, son of Cyrus N. and Jennie (Heaton) Amick. The Amick family came originally from Germany. From Pennsylvania, where they first settled, they went south to North Carolina. From North Carolina they came by ox wagon across the country through the Cumberland Gap of Kentucky to Indiana in 1809, and were among the earliest pioneers of Jennings County. Mr. Amick’s grandfather, Obed Amick, was born in North Carolina, before the family came to Indiana, being a son of Peter Amick. Both of them after coming to Indiana took up Government land and hewed farms out of the wilderness. A number of the Amicks have been business and professional men. Cyrus Amick was a farmer all his active life. Marion H. Amick was one of three children. His brother Cecil C., now in the insurance business at Detroit, Michigan, married Merle McCaslin. His sister, Eunice, is the wife of Claude Carmichael, who is in the insurance business at Indianapolis. Cecil was in the Student Army Training Corps during the World war. All three of the children attended school in Jennings County. Marion H. Amick completed his education at Purdue University and then went on the farm. In July, 1911, he enlisted, was sent to Fort Benjamin Harrison at Indianapolis, to Camp Shelby, Mississippi, and Leon Springs, Texas, and later was returned to Camp Shelby. He was promoted to sergeant in August, 1917, and was assigned duty as an instructor at Camp Shelby, Mississippi. He was appointed a student instructor with the Student Officers Training Corps and in August, 1918, was commissioned a second lieutenant at Camp Taylor, Kentucky. He was assigned to the Twenty-seventh Field Artillery at Camp McClellan, Alabama, and in October was sent to Camp Mills, Long Island, preparatory to going overseas. This order was cancelled by reason of the armistice and he was sent back to Camp McClellan and received his honorable discharge at Camp Grant, Illinois, February 7, 1919. After the war he resumed farming in Bartholomew County and took a very active part in the Farm Bureau organization from 1919 until 1927. He left the farm and moved to Columbus, where since September 1, 1927, he has conducted a general insurance business, representing a number of standard organizations over Bartholomew County and surrounding counties, including the Mutual life of New York City, the Globe-Rutgers Fire Insurance Company, the New York Fire-Indemnity Company of America, for which he writes automobile insurance, the Standard Surety Casualty Company of New York, with brokerage connections in various large cities in the central states. Mr. Amick is a charter member of the American Legion Post at Columbus and was service officer in 1929 and in 1930 was elected commander. He is a member of St. John’s Lodge of Masons. Mr. Amick married Helen V. Glick, who was born in Bartholomew County and finished her education in Franklin College. They have three daughters, Mary Elenore, Marjorie Lois and Jene Marie.
