- William Bassett inherited his father's property by the terms of the will. The annals of Lynn state that "Sarah Bassett was tried at Salem 23 May 1692 and sent to Boston prison, where she was kept until December 3, seven months. She was a daughter of Richard Hood, and wife of William Bassett, jun., in Nahant street. She had a young child, twenty-two months old, which she took to prison with her. The next daughter which she had after her imprisonment, she called 'Deliverance'." There is a record of nine pounds allowed to Sarah Bassett as compensation for her imprisonment for witchcraft.
