Roth, Ambrose M., farmer, was born in Pennsylvania in 1864, and with his parents came to Clay county in 1879, where he remained on the farm until 1886, when he went to Nebraska and engaged in railroading. On account of ill-health he returned home after a lapse of nine months. After recovering from his illness, which extended over quite a period, he began farming, and since his father's death, has had charge of the farm of which he is part-owner, it being the northeast quarter of section 5, Spencer township. It is a fine farm, provided with good buildings, sixty acres being under cultivation. Mr. Roth is an active young farmer.
