Henry August Lorberg (1856–1943) was an American journalist, entrepreneur, and local historian of Portsmouth and Scioto County, Ohio.

The reviewer called it "the finest thing of its kind the Times has ever seen...The portraits include most of the people who have ever been prominent in Portsmouth, many of whom are dead, many being still alive and among our active citizens.

"[7] A significant part of Lorberg's business was the publication and distribution of postcards featuring over 2,500 local landscape scenes, beginning in the late 1800s.

"Henry Lorberg received another consignment of penny weighing machines Thursday and has placed them at advantageous points about town.

"[9] In 1908 Lorberg put forward a proposal to preserve and display the Indian Head Rock, a large boulder in the Ohio River with a strong connection to Portsmouth history.

"Henry Lorberg is going to communicate with the light house department with a view to having the snag boat Woodruff pull up the Indian rock, the idea of Mr. Lorberg being to have the city place the historic bowlder [sic] in York park, in a position overlooking the river...Portsmouth is the River City and to preserve the rock in the manner referred to would be highly appropriate."
