There are several of us looking at the Amos Bissell you mention. There is a book available online about the PURMORT genealogy that referrences Algetha Purmort marrying a Mr. Bissel of Mt. Forrest Canada. This may be Amos Bissell. We are thinking Amos is the father of Joshua (Pierpoint/Purmort/Purmont) Bissell. The email address is skirschman@hotmail.com.
