Biography

皇甫继明,冀州蓚人。
宋史卷二百五十九 列传第十八:
  皇甫继明,冀州蓚人。父济,汾川令。继明身长七尺,善骑射,以膂力闻郡中。刺史张廷翰以隶左右,荐于太祖,补殿前指挥使,历左右番押班都知。
  太宗即位,累迁至捧日军都指挥使、领檀州刺史。太平兴国七年,坐秦王廷美事,出为汝州马步军都指挥使。雍熙三年,召入为马步军副都军头。四年,复为捧日右厢第三军都指挥使、领澶州刺史。田重进北征,继明为前锋,以功加马步军都军头。端拱二年,转龙、神卫四厢都指挥使、领罗州防御使。即日命副高琼为并代部署。淳化二年,又副范廷召为平虏桥砦兵马都部署,改高阳关部署。
  至道元年,改领洋州观察使,充环庆路马步军都部署。继明谨愿,御下严肃,士卒颇畏惮之。二年,受诏护送辎重赴灵州,继明已先约灵州部署田绍斌率军迎援,适被病,裨将白守荣谓继明曰:"君疾甚,不可行,恐失期会,守荣当率兵先往。"继明宿将,虑守荣等轻佻,与戎人接战,因谓之曰:"我疾少间。"遂矍铄被甲上马,强行至清远军,卒,年六十三,诏赠彰武军节度。迁其子怀信为供奉官。
