Part 1 and Part 2
In 2013, a triple biography written on the lives of Amasa Mason Lyman, Francis Marion Lyman, and Richard R. Lyman by descendant Scott H. Partridge, Jr. (1930-2015) was presented to the Amasa Mason Lyman Educational and Historical Society. Scott was contacted and approved that the Society publish the manuscript as they see fit, saying that he hadn't been able to reach a deal with Granite Publishing.

The cover letter from Scott's submission to Granite Publishing is included as a preface containing important explanations. It is not dated, but makes it clear that the manuscript was composed between 2003 and 2013. The original document is in the hands of David D. Busath.
