Asbury Francis Harvey was born September 9, 1739, near London, Roan county, Tennessee. He died after a lingering illness of four years, at his home in Maysville, Mo,, Sunday morning, October 15, 1916, at the age of 77 years, 1 month and 6 days.
    Tennessee. When he was 8 years old his father, Lemuel Harvey decided to move westward and in the fall of 1847 the family and their belongings floated down the Tennessee River on flatboats and then on the Ohio until they reached the Mississippi at Cairo, Illinois. From there they went up to St. Louis, Missouri. From St Louis the family came up the Missouri River by steamboat to Weston in Platte county. They remained there during the year 1848. The next year they came to Maysville where Lemuel Harvey purchased land east of town, which later became the old homestead.
    Mr. Harvey was prominent in the business and political circles of this section of the state in the earlier days. He was appointed assistant postmaster in Maysville in 1862. In the same year he also became deputy circuit clerk of DeKalb county under his brother, C. C. Harvey. He served one year in both offices. In 1863 he enlisted in the Missouri State Militia under Captain George Brown and served one year. He was elected county clerk of DeKalb county in 1864 and in 1868 was re-elected to that office. Under the laws of Missouri at that time he also held the office of ex officio County School Commissioner. He was appointed registration officer for DeKalb county by the circuit court in 1873 and served in that office until it was abolished by the state several years later.
    He was one of a family of eleven children born to Mr. and Mrs. Lemuel Harvey. There were nine boys and two girls. The only remaining member of the family is Mrs. Sarah F. Spiking of King City, Mo.
    At the time of the Civil War the family of Lemuel Harvey was one of the few in this section of Missouri whose sympathies were strongly with the Union side. Two brothers died during the war. John Harvey was killed in an engagement in Southern Missouri and Captain C. C. Harvey died after an illness while serving this country.
    In 1869 Mr. Harvey was married to Miss Abigail Fisher of Maysville. To them were born 3 children, two of whom are living: Frank A. Harvey of St. Joseph and Mrs. Clint H. Rosencrans of Portland, Oregon. In 1879 he was married to Miss Kate C. Wade of Maysville, and to them also were born 3 children, two of whom are living Charles A. Harvey and Wade B. Harvey of Maysville.
    Four years ago Mr. Harvey became seriously ill but later partially recovered. He had been an invalid since that time. About 2 weeks ago his condition became suddenly worse. Complications of diseases set up which caused his death early Sunday morning. His wife and 4 children were at his bedside when the end came.
    The body lay in state at the home Tuesday morning. The funeral services were held at the home at 1:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The funeral sermon was delivered by S. D. Kendall, minister for the Methodist church at Osborn, Missouri. He was assisted by D. A. Bloomster, minister for the Maysville M. E. Chruch. Interment was in the Maysville cemetery. A short service was held at the grave.
The pallbearers were: T. D. Williams, Rueben Winter, Newman Estes, O. W. Iden, Geo. F. Brown, H. F. Teeter, Edward F. Cornelius and I. H. Bloom.
    NOTE - Known mistakes as follows: 1. birth year was 1839 2. Born near Loudon, Roane County. 3. St. Lonis should be St. Louis   4. On the 1850 census his parents gave his name as Francis Asbury. We believe that in later years he reversed his first and middle name.
John Wesley Harvey,
brother of Asbury Francis Harvey.
"Killed while defending his country at Osage Bridge" is on his monument. Was killed while he was "trying to stop old Price on his raid when he was attempting to capture Jefferson City" according to his sister Sarah Frances Harvey Spiking.
Sarah Frances Harvey Spiking was married to John Heath Spiking, Sr. who is also on your list. I didn't notice if you have anything else on him but I have a tad. "Veteran, Enlisted in 13th Ill. Inf. Employed in Gov't work in
1868 after discharge. Came to King City, DeKalb County, Missouri in 1870."
By the way, the name of Capt. C. C. Harvey, mentioned in Asbury Francis
Harvey's obit, is Christopher C. Harvey. The GAR Post in DeKalb Co, MO was named after him "Capt. C. C. Harvey Post, Missouri 96" Sherry
