My Dad was Luther Marion Bassett. His Brother and Wife Dewey and Gassie recorded for RCA Bluebird Records in the 40's. His Sister Adelle and her husband Rupert owned Trepur Records in Lagrange Georgia and they were members of the McClendon Brothers Group. My Dads siblings that I can remember were Dewey,Jesse,Jay,Carlas,Anne,Adelle,Charlie,and Rose. Anne married a Gonzalez and Adelle a McClendon.I often wondered if my family was related to the Bassett Furniture Industry. I think my Dad's Mom was a Brown before she married my Grand Father.

I also have great photos of him he was a handsome man. His sister Ada Turner was married to Alfred Anderson Turner.

Re: Harriet C. Bassett from Rochester, Monroe Co., NY

irigwald — 2012-03-25 17:15:58Z

Hi, Diane! Thanks for responding to my inquiry! I had given up looking for a reply to my "shot in the dark" question. I'm slowly but surely locating info on this family. When I started, I only had Henriette Marcille's name on the back of a picture to go on. She was my great-grandmother. Her daughter (Esther) was my grandmother who died when I was 8. I've attached a pedigree chart of what I assume to be her ancestral line. Please let me know if there is a connection. I have pictures of Henriette, her sister Louise & husband(?) Abe Akay, and the Thomas Bassett family. You said that Harriet Bassett died before 1915. That explains why she just seemed to "drop out of sight". Do you have any information about that...did she marry...what caused her death, etc.?
Thank you, again, for posting a reply.
irigwald@frontiernet.net (if this is easier to contact me)

Re: Harriet C. Bassett from Rochester, Monroe Co., NY

Diane_Noga — 2012-03-24 20:30:48Z

She passed away before 1915. Could you advise me the name of Henriette Marcille Bassett's parents. I have the Marcille's back to 1700 and am the great-great granddaughter of Henri Marcille & Eliza Metler and trying to see if there is a connection.

Donald Horace Bassette (not a mis-post)

JMBIndy — 2012-03-05 02:30:25Z

The family name is Bassett. His name was spelled differently from siblings, Lawrence Bassett and Eleanor Bassett (both deceased).

Donald's Known information: Birth 25 Dec 1927 in Massachusetts, Death 15 Apr 1989 in Chattooga, Georgia.

I am looking for information on his first wife, Ethel. I don't know her maiden name. They had three children, Donna and Douglas (both living), David (deceased).

Ethel remarried and I believe her last name is Hall. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Looking for Lawrence Basset

JMBIndy — 2012-03-04 04:16:05Z

I'm not sure if the information helped the original poster, but I just found this now and have to say "thanks!" What you've posted is information on my family tree, including excellent information on my Uncle Don. I was sitting with my Dad (Lawrence) when he receive the news of his brother's death, but didn't get any details or attend the funeral.

This will help put some background into his brother's information.

Thanks again.

Re: Joseph Bassett and Jane Gibson (area England)

sandramoffatt55 — 2012-02-07 04:16:34Z

Hi Megan,

No you are not going down the wrong path. These were all the children of Joseph and Jane (Gibson) Bassett. I'm not sure about the last 3 but they are mentioned in Minnie's obit. I am doing some research for a descendant of Elizabeth. Elizabeth did marry William E.Fraser but he died in 1928, she married 3 more times! I too have not found any registered births for these children and outside of Martha I think every one of them was sent to Canada via Barnardo. I'm sure the family was poor but I can't for the life of me understand why they let so many go.

The Bible is in fairly good shape. It was purchased in Pennsylvania and is now located in St Louis, Mo USA. It appears the Bassett family was in Merritton, Lincoln, Ontario, Canada in the 1881 census. Does any one know how it got to Pennsylvania, USA?

GOINS-BASSETT

circa1849 — 2012-01-17 22:49:21Z

Hello list,

I just found a Social News announcement in the Canton (OH) Repository about the nuptials of Gertrude Goins b. 1881 and DeVoe or De Voe Bassett b.1879. I believe they were both native Pennsylvanians. They married 3 December, 1916 at St. Timothy's Church of said city.

While Devoe may have remained in the Keystone State, Gertrude moved to Canton with her parents Roswell James Goins and Elizabeth Murrerlls-Goins. They are in the Pennsylvania Censuses 1880 and Ohio Censuses for 1900 and 1910. Her father passed away 1912 and her mother I am not sure.

I have tried Ancestry.com city directories but they seem to be in beta at the moment.

If you have anyone information about either one of these individuals I would kindly appreciate it if you would let me know.

Thanks in advance!

You may want to join FIND-A-GRAVE at www.findagrave.com and post a memorial to your brother at Camellia Memorial. I've checked the web site and there are already over 1,000 memorials at that cemetery. After you've got the memorial up, you can place a "REQUEST" for a Find-A-Grave photo volunteer to take the picture. In looking there tonight, there is 1 request which has been "claimed". That means that there is definitely someone out there who is willing to help! If you have any trouble, I can post the memorial for you with the info you've provided, request the photo and then, after you've signed up, transfer it to you. Let me know!

Hi Ken

I am Charles' Great Great Grandaughter. I too am trying to piece together what happened to Charles after he arrived in Canada.

I would dearly love the photo as the boy is my Grandad Tom.

Isabella told people Charles had died and that is why she returned to the UK.

I know we have a lot more to discuss. I hope we can get in touch.

If you are still researching, perhaps we can compare notes.

William Bassett was my Grandfather , Gilbert Bassett`s brother. William emigrated to NY in 1884 together with 3 of his brothers - Sidney who married Margaret Campbell from Ireland; Horace who married Mary Young Stewart and Geo Percy who died in NY 22 July 1893
William married Helen Buchler from Germany on 18 October 1886 in NY. They had 3 (?) children - Frederick W b 1887, Charles (or Chris) b Dec 1890 and Percy Geo b Feb 1893.
After that the trail goes cold. I can find no trace.
Can anyone assist, please?

Irving is pictured in the 1914 yearbook of the Terrill Preparatory School in Dallas, Texas, and is a faculty member. I'm not kin but thought this might help someone researching the family.

I just found the obituary for Justin Bassett in the Huron Reflector and am trying to place him. Do you know who his parents are?
