David F. Hope, one of West Fork Township's most prominent farmers and stock raisers, was born in Campbell County, Tennessee, in 1829. His grandfather Hope came from England with his wife, who was born there, to America at an early day and located in Tennessee, on the Tennessee River, where he followed the occupation of ship carpenter. He reared his family in Knoxville, Tennessee, and was one of the prominent men of that section of the country, dying at the age of seventy years, having lived an honorable, active and useful life. His wife died at the advanced age of one hundred years. Their son, Thomas Hope, was born and reared to manhood in Knoxville, Tennessee, and learned the ship carpenter's trade of his father, after which he located in Campbell County, Tennessee, where he entered a large tract of land and became an extensive slave owner. He was married in Campbell County to Miss Nancy Smith, and by her became the father of ten children. His death occurred at the age of forty-five years, but his widow, who is a member of an old North Carolina family, was born in Tennessee, and is still living and resides with her son Jordan on the old plantation in Campbell County. David F. Hope is their third son, and was educated in the schools of Knoxville. He came to Arkansas in 1851, where he learned the blacksmith's trade, and was married, in 1853, to Louisa Johnson, daughter of James Johnson, by whom he is the father of the following children: Martha J., wife of J.R. Stockbuger; James T.; Mary E., wife of James Basset; Sarah A., wife of Mark Little; Hugh R., John F., Louisa T.C. (deceased); Nancy C., wife of William Yorks, Alice, Benjamin F., George D., and infant deceased, and Elizabeth. After his marriage Mr. Hope located on the West Fork of White River, where he made his home until 1866, and then purchased his present farm of 240 acres. He has eighty acres of improved land, on which is a neat and commodious two-story frame dwelling house, and after years of well-spent labor is now living at his ease, surrounded by the comforts which he has richly earned.

An Illustrated History of the Big Bend Country Embracing
Lincoln, Douglas, Adams and Franklin Counties
State of Washington (1904)
Hon. John D. Bassett, one of the most widely known bankers in the State of Washington, now living in Ritzville, was born in Plainfield, Connecticut, January 6, 1858, and is descended from an old English family, which came to Connecticut and settled in Guilford in 1660. His father, William E. Bassett, a Congregational minister, was born in New Haven, Connecticut, and his mother, Mary (Dowd) Bassett, was also a native of the "Wooden Nutmeg State", and came of one of the old New England families. The father died in 1881 and the mother five years later in Norfolk, Connecticut.
For forty years Mr. Bassett lived in the state of his birth, and was educated in the public schools, Williston seminary, the seminary of East Hampton, Massachusetts, and one year in Yale. In Norfolk he was engaged for several years in the mercantile business and silk manufacturing, being at the time and is yet secretary and treasurer of the Aetna Silk Company. In 1891 he came to Washington and established the Snohomish National Bank, Snohomish, and the Adams County Bank, which in 1901 was converted into a national bank at Ritzville, of which he is president. He also at this time organized the First National Bank of Waterville, of which he was cashier some months. He is now president of the First National Bank of Ritzville, the Odessa State Bank, the Bank of Lind, the Presser State Bank and the Farmers' Bank at Hatton, Washington. He is treasurer of the Sprague Mercantile Company, Sprague, Washington; president of the Ritzville Library and Improvement Association; and president of the Chamber of Commerce.
After leaving school in 1879 Mr. Bassett was for eighteen months employed in the banking house of Cowles & Eldridge, in Norfolk, and in 1881 he went to Minnesota, where he studied law with C.M. Start, now a member of the Minnesota supreme court. He was never admitted to practice, however, but went from Minnesota to Kansas, where he remained two months and returned to the state of his birth. Here he became secretary of the Norfolk Shear Company, and on January 1, 1883, he engaged in the general merchandise business with the firm of Clark & Bassett, in which he was extremely prosperous. In 1890 he sold his interest in business to his partner, and spent the following year in organizing banks at Hartington and Ogalala, Nebraska, and at Dunlap, Iowa.
John D. Bassett has no brothers, but has one sister, Rebecca B., wife of Dr. Plumb-Brown, Springfield, Massachusetts.
On September 30, 1896, John D. Bassett was married to Alice W. Case, a native of Barkhamstead, Connecticut. Her father was also born in that state. This union has been blessed with three children, Joseph E., Mary D., and Emma S.
In fraternity circles Mr. Bassett is affiliated with the Western Star Lodge, No. 37, Norfolk, Connecticut, A.F. and A.M., and both he and his wife are members of the Eastern Star. They are also prominent spirits in the local Congregational church, of which our subject is a deacon.
Mr. John D. Bassett has been unusually prominent and active in political circles, both in his native state and the state of his adoption. He represented his district in the Connecticut State legislature in 1886-1887, and was active in all educational measures and clerk of the temperance committee. He was superintendent of schools and town treasurer for several years; and was registrar of voters for ten years. He has been a Republican all his life, and in addition to the above offices was chairman of the Republican central committee from the eighteenth senatorial district of his native state.

The Seattle Republican
June 5, 1908
J.D. Bassett who made such a splendid record in Olympia as a legislator in the ninth and tenth legislatures, has announced that he will seek the Republican nomination for joint senator from the eleventh senatorial district. Mr. Bassett is a resident of Ritzville, the county seat of Adams county, and has already received the endorsement of his county for the nomination. The Seattle Republican desires to say to the voters of the eleventh senatorial district that they could not find a better man for the position in the entire district than he, and from a result standpoint not one half so good, as he has had the legislative experience and acquaintanceship among the legislators. No man at Olympia among the legislators stood higher in the estimation of the other legislators and the observing public than J.D. Bassett, and if that district wishes results from the next two legislatures it would do well to nominate and elect him to the legislature from the eleventh senatorial district.

Bill Bassett
History of Park County, Montana 1984
Hattie and Mrs. Bassett moved up to the Papesh Place with Fred. One winter day they took a team and buggy and went to visit Bill. A big spring at the lower end of the Papesh Place had laid down a sheet of ice across the road. One of the horses slipped and fell, causing the wagon to lurch, throwing Mrs. Bassett on her head on the frozen ground. They righted things, and Mrs. Bassett appeared OK. They continued on to Bassett Creek. Betty prepared tea for them, and Mrs. Bassett proceeded to put spoonful after spoonful of sugar in her tea. That was the first indication that her head had been injured, but from that time on she was never in good mental health. When Hattie married Harry Bray, she moved to the deer Lodge area and took her mother with her. Mrs. Bassett died not long after the move at Warm Springs.
Fred worked at the Goffner Sawmill, above the Taylor Place in Mol Heron Creek, and became acquainted with Cinnabar Basin. He moved to the Basin around 1895, and settled where Al and Judy Jensen now live (on the Sargent Ranch). On Nov. 26, 1897, he married Leah Smith, whose family lived on the place which was later proved up on by the Hesit family. (He was 34 and she was 21.) Their first daughter, Florence, was born Sept. 22, 1898.
So for around ten years, the two Bassett families lived on opposite sides of the Yellowstone River. To visit each other or to trade work, they had to cross the river at a ford just above the present Corwin Bridge. Florence can even remember them hauling a threshing machine across the ford. She also recalls one time when her family went to visit Bill and Betty. They took a team and buggy. One of the horses was a mare which had a foal, which they allowed to tag along, as they were to be gone overnight. The river was high, and when the team plunged into the water at the ford, the colt swam ahead of the team and became lodged between the horses, under the tongue. Fred had to crawl out onto the tongue to push the colt forward and around in front of the team to prevent it from drowning.
Bill and Betty ranched on Bassett Creek for a number of years. Their children were Harvey (Ethel Rigler's father), Lester, Shelby, Nellie (who died when she was 8-12 years old, and is buried in the Gardiner Cemetery), Nora (who married Bill Jones), and Wildie (born about 1905). At a time when buffalo were near extinction, buffalo were a problem on this ranch, especially in the spring. On any given day, a person could round a corner of the barn while doing chores, and run into a cantankerous old bull. The bulls were known to breed their cows, and they had some hybrid calves. So they tried to run the animals off, with varying success.
In 1908, Bill sold the Bassett Creek place to the group which built the Corwin Springs Hotel and Plunge in 1909. The existing Corwin Bridge was built at that time. Subsequently, Betty operated a boarding house on Main Street in Livingston, and Bill set up a blacksmith shop in Fishtail. They are both buried at Fishtail. (After Bill died, in her later years, Betty married S.M. Fitzgerald, the man who originally led the Bassett family to Montana.)

John Stout Bassett
Captain John Stout Bassett was born 22 Jun 1791 near Washington (formerly Bassett), PA, as his family migrated from Hunterdon County, New Jersey, to Kentucky. His parents were Amos and Susan Stout Bassett who were with General Symmes' party that came down the Ohio River to found Cincinnati. The Bassetts stopped at Limestone, now Maysville, and lived in Mason and Bracken Counties, KY. John served for 28 years as sheriff of Bracken County. In 1841 he and his family moved to Hopkins County where he bought a farm near Anton.
On 24 Mar 1811 John Bassett married Jane Rogerson, daughter of William Rogerson, and they had eight children. They were Elijah, Amos, James, William P., Elizabeth, Susan, Emily and Jane Rogerson Bassett. Elijah is discussed in another article. William P. never married; Elizabeth married John Margness Pearl, Jr.; Susan married Lonny Niblick and Emily married William H. Hewlett. All four of these children died as young adults and are buried in the Bassett cemetery near Anton.
Amos Bassett was born 15 Sep 1815 and married Lucy Waller Nesbit on 20 Sept. 1842. He had farms near Madisonville and members of this family have been prominent in Hopkins County since 1841. The children of Amos and Lucy were Lucien who married Agnes Prithcett, George never married, William "Bud" married Josei Fugate, Mary K. married Dr. Mandley B. Winstead, Elijah married Margaret Elizabeth Bull and then Mrs. Cordie rover, Laura A. died young, Samuel married Mary Jones, Jenny married Yateman Johnson, Fannie Waller married Ed Kirkwood, John married Sally Morgan and Jessie married Alvin D. Sisk. The Amos Bassett family owned a large tract of land in Madisonville called "Bassett Hill". It ran from Price Street east across what is now Highway 41 and contained two family-owned livery stables, a sawmill and a slaughter house. George Bassett had the first contract to pave streets in Madisonville. The residence of Byron Hobgood on Price Street is on the site of the home of his great-grandfather, William "Bud" Bassett. Byron is President and his uncle, Hiram Bassett, is Secretary-Treasurer of the Bassett-Anton Community Cemetery Association.
James Bassett was the first of the family to come to West Kentucky. Soon after receiving his certificate to practice medicine in 1840, he rode westward to seek a location. He settled in Providence, then in Hopkins County. He married Frances America S. Given, daughter of Eleazer and Mary Eveline Savage Sittler Given. They had no children.
Jane Rogerson Bassett was born 23 May 1828 and married Joe Smith Thomas on 7 Feb 1848. Their only daughter, Emma, married Henry Burle Williams and they had nine children. Jane and Joe Thomas lived in Hopkins County and are buried in the Bassett Cemetery near Anton.

My dear Nephew
I rrec'd your kind letter yesterday with a great deal of hearth felt pleasure, and that pleasure us very much Heightened by the fact that you are the first of my brothers children that has written me a letter without my first writing them. My health has not been good for three or four years.
I have been troubled for that length of time with coal feet even in the very hottest weather, and a swimming head, but have appeared to be somewhat better for several weeks. I have been (as you have no doubt heard) very unfortunate wth my family.
Since I came to this country having lost your Aunt your cousin William, and your cousin Elizabeth Pearl - no Susan Niblick has been lying with rheumatism for some four or five years. She has not walked a step, and for a long time she has not been able to move an part of her, anymore than if she eats is fed to her like feeding a baby. She suffers indescribably everyday. We have set up with her every night for the last five or six weeks.
Amos has the chills all the Fall and Winter with some interruptions.
The other children that are here are in common health. Elijah had gone to Bracken County and so has Mr. Pearl, Elizabeth's widowed husband. Amos lives two miles from me, James 20 miles, Susan 5 miles, Emily lives with me, Jan 3 miles.
I have not rec'd a letter from any of your family since I have been in this country. About 3 years ago I saw a letter from your brother Wlliam in which he requested my son James to tell me to wrote to him a letter of my own inditing. In compliance with that request I wrote him a lengthy letter giving him a brief history of my family from the time I came to this country but I regret that I have not rec'd any from him since.
A young man from our Country (Mr. Ashby) informed me that he fell in company with your mother last Spring am brought me a very satisfactory account of your family.
I wrote to her shortly after he returned but have not rec'd an answer from her since. I regret exceedingly that it was not convenient for you to visit us before returning to Missouri but would request that you correspond with me and my family by letter and visit us early as practicable. Tell your mother and brother and sisters to write to me and my children, and visit us if it is possible they can, as persons as nearly related as we are should not neglect a practice through whith there is so much pleasure to be dreived at that is not completely in our power.
Your Uncle Affectionately

Louis Mitchell Bass
(Includes Picture)
Patriarch of the Bass Family of Sevier County, Arkansas
Monday, December 31, 2012
Posted by Angela Y. Walton-Raji
Known to be a strict disciplinarian and a devout family man, Louis Mitchell Bass was born a slave in Giles County, Tennessee. He was the son of Irving and Nancy, who were both slaves of Major John Bass of Elkton.
Upon the death of Major Bass in 1860, some of the Bass estate was divided, and as debts were paid and gifts were made from the estate, the lives of the enslaved people were dramatically affected by this settlement. One of those affected was Mitchell. He was sent as a "gift" to one of the daughters of Major Bass, and sent to live in south west Arkansas, near the town of Horatio.
Not much was known about his life while enslaved in Arkansas forever separated from his family. It has been said that he was often working with sheep and wool, and spinning yarn. Louis Mitchell would remain in Arkansas, for most of his life, although he would often receive news and treasure news about the family that remained in Tennessee. He would later keep in touch with one of the few remaining brothers who eventually left Tennessee and moved to Kansas. Two older brothers were in Texas, but Mitchell never saw them again. Mitchell would marry twice in his lifetime, first to Susan Houston, and after she died he then married her sister Georgia Ann Houston.
He would raise a very large family in Horatio, Arkansas, even renting land to families nearby. Agriculture was how he made a living, and the family would remain in the same Arkansas community until the 1940s. In the late 1800s Mitchell Bass obtained some of his land as a homesteader. One of his sons, Irving also later acquired land and the family prospered for many years off of the combined parcels of acquired land.
It is not known how Louis Mitchell Bass found his freedom, but in honor of the Emancipation Proclamation, and his freedom, I honor this ancestor! He is one who chose to survive and I honor him on this Watch Night!

He was educated at the Bishop Foy School. Two other brothers are also in Canada, and a third, Mr. Benjamin Bassett, is a chemist in Malahide, Col Dublin. His only sister is the wife of Mr. C.S. Agnew, formerly of the Board of Works, Waterford, and now residing in Belfast.
?The Chatham Daily News? says:?
Two important changes in the personnel of officials of the Dominion Glass Co. were announced on July 30th by Sir Charles B. Gordon of Montreal, president of the organization.
