Born the sixth child of eleven to John Smiley Lott and Mary Ann Fausett.

When he was about nine years old the family moved to central Utah. They were living in Joseph, Sevier County in 1887. The 1880 Census says that Amasa was living in the household of his mother in Joseph. He was working as a farm laborer.

The records say that Amasa died in Clear Creek, Sevier, Utah. Clear Creek is paralleled by I-70 west of Cove Fort.

From Wikopedia: "Clear Creek is a creek in Utah which joins the Sevier River near the city of Sevier. It flows alongside Interstate 70 just east of where I-70 meets I-15. It is best known for its Fremont culture Native American archaeological finds and Fremont Indian State Park, which celebrates these finds. Clear Creek is also the name of what has almost become a ghost town in the same area."

Amasa's father had built a cabin there on Fremont Indian ruins. Several members of the family are buried in Joseph Cemetery. Amasa probably is too. The grave is so old that the marker probably isn't visable anymore.
