'Amos Moore Lyle' (October 8, 1866—?) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1910 to 1914, as a member of the Conservative Party.
Lyle was born in Smiths Falls, Canada West (now Ontario), to a family that had emigrated from Ireland in 1848. He was educated at Smiths Falls and Morrisburg. He went to Manitoba in 1886, and returned in 1891 after a period in British Columbia. Lyle was a farmer, and a breeder of purebred Clydesdales. In religion, he was a Presbyterian.
He first ran for the Manitoba legislature in the 1907 provincial election, and lost to Liberal candidate John Williams by three votes in the Arthur constituency. He ran again in the 1910 election, and defeated Lyle by 175 votes. The Conservatives won the election, and Lyle served in the legislature as a backbench supporter of Rodmond Palen Roblin's government.
He lost his constituency seat to Williams by 66 votes in the 1914 election.
