| 36063 | Nathaniel was 88 years of age when he died. Massachusetts Historical Commission, record by Robert Macintosh, 20 Dec 1982 Address: Main street Original Owner: Nathaniel Basse This house was built around 1825 for Nathaniel Bassett. It is presumed to have been built by his brother, Cornelius, (Cornelius was actually h cousin) who was Lee's first mason. Nathaniel Bassett was born in Sandwich, Mass. in 1758. He joined the colonial army at age 17 and served the revolutionary forces at Dorchester Heights outside of Boston. He was in the first boatload of Americans to take possession of the fort abandoned by the British. Later in the war he was one of a small party who dragged a cannon through the woods to the Hudson River at Verplanck's Point and fired on the British ship "Vulture" with Andre on board, resulting in Andre's capture and the flight of Arnold. Bassett came to Lee in 1778 and soon set up Lee's first blacksmith shop, near the corner of Park and High Streets. He was a successful businessman and eventually owned nearly all of the west side of upper Main Street, including his little brick office. He was sexton of the Congregational Church for 40 years. He planted the stately elms that for many years lined both sides of Park Street (now all gone). He died in 1846 at age 88. After his death the office was converted to a house. From about 1850 until 1880 the house was occupied by a woman named Laura Bailey. In 1880 it was purchased by David Dresser who owned a lar house next door. David Dresser and Benjamin Jull began a coal yard in 1859, today the Dresser-Hull Company of Railroad Street. Dresser died in 1904, and his widow died three years later. The little house was purchased by C.E. Hull, Benjamin Hull's son. It was sold almost immediately after to Mrs. J. Watson Bassett who had lived there since 1903. Her husband was Nathaniel Bassett's grandson and Joseph Bassett's son. Mrs. Bassett lived there until she moved to Pittsfield in 1915. The house has had many short term owners in the 1900's Today it is Lyn's Antiques. | Bassett, Nathaniel (I01221)

| 36064 | Nathaniel was a religious man, but he left the established church. He joined the group called Separatists or New Lights, later called Baptists. In 1749 he signed a petition requesting that those who did not belong to t established church should not be required to pay taxes for its maintenance. At a town meeting in 1755 the citizens of Chatham decided that the five residents of Chatham, including Nathaniel Bassett, who had become Baptists should continue to pay taxes for the ministry. A few years later, however, this practice was abolished and he was thereafter listed among the Baptists not taxed for the maintenance of the ministry. | Bassett, Nathaniel (I00269)

| 36070 | National Cyclopaedia of American Biography Bassett, Samuel Hopkins, physician, was born in Coleman Station, New York, December 7, 1897, son of William and Matilda (Glasgow) Bassett. His father was a farmer. Samuel H. Bassett received his preliminary education at public schools in Coleman Station and was graduated A.B. in 1920 and M.D. in 1924 at Cornell University. After serving an internship in 1924-1925 at the Reconstruction Hospital, New York City, he joined the staff of New York Hospital, where in 1925-1926 he successively was junior assistant physician, ambulance surgeon, senior assistant physician, and house physician. He then was assistant resident physician at the Lane Hospital, San Francisco, California, for a short time in 1927, after which he was resident physician and instructor in medicine at the Strong Memorial Hospital, Rochester, New York, in 1927-1928. Joining the teaching staff of the School of Medicine and Dentistry at the University of Rochester in 1928 an an instructor in medicine, he was appointed assistant professor in 1930 and associate professor in 1941, continuing in the last-named capacity until 1948. From 1945 to 1948 he was also head of the university's section on human metabolism and was associated with the institution's atomic energy program conducted in connection with the Manhattan Project (later U.S. Atomic Energy Commission). In 1948 he was appointed by the Veterans Administration, Washington, D.C., as chief of research at its center in Los Angeles, California, assigned to establish a nucleus of medical research laboratories, and subsequently in 1959 he was appointed its senior medical investigator, continuing as such until the close of hs life. Also in 1948 he became a clinical professor of medicine at the University of California at Los Angeles, where he was professor of medicine from 1956 until the close of his life. The university's school of medicine was in its first year when he joined its teaching staff, and he assisted in the preparation of its teaching program as well as acting as consultant in the establishment of a metabolic research unit. He participated in the first atomic bomb test of the Manhattan Project at Bikini in 1946. Bassett was at one time a member of the conference on metabolic interrelations of the Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation, New York City. He was co-author of more than thirty articles appearing in medical publications, including, "Mineral Exchanges of Man. I. Organization of Metabolism Ward and Analytical Methods" (with C.A. Elden and W.S. McCann, Jour. Nutirt., 1931), "Mineral Exchanges of Man. VI. Effect of Extirpation of Parathyroid Timor on the Balances of Electrolytes" (with H.E. Van Alstine, ibig., 1935), "Metabolism in Idiopathic Steatorrhea: I. The Influence of Dietary and Other Factors on Lipid and Mineral Balances" (with E.H. Keutmann, H.V. Hyde, and Van Alstine, Jour. Clin. Invest., 1939), "Effect of Injections of Testosterone Proponionate on a Male Subject with Nephrotic Syndrome" (with H. Samuel, C.D. Cockakian, and Keutmann, Jour. Clin. Endo., 1943). and "Nontropical Sprue Complicated by Generalized Amyloidosis, Observations on the Exchange on Nitrogen, Calcium, and Phosphorus" (with W.S. Adams, R. Goldman, and B.G. Fishkin, Med. Clin. North Amer., 1952). He also wrote the sections on disorders of calcium and phosphorus metabolism in "Clinical Disorders of Fluid and Electrolyte Metabolism" (1962) and with others contributed the studies of calcium balance in men with senil osteoporosis in "Aging Around the World" (Proc. 5th Congr. Internat. Assn. Gerontology, 1962).

| 36080 | Naval History and Heritage Command Harry Brinkley Bass Harry Brinkley Bass, born in Chicago, Ill., on Independence Day 1916, was appointed a midshipman at the U.S. Naval Academy on 11 June 1934 and graduated on 2 June 1938. Appointed ensign the same day, Ens. Bass reported for duty in New Orleans (CA-32), then serving on the west coast, on 29 June 1938. Detached from New Orleans on 10 June 1939, he reported to Farragut (DD-348) two days later. On 7 August 1940, Bass departed Farragut to proceed to the U.S. Naval Air Station, Pensacola, Fla., to begin flight training. He began his tour of duty on 25 August 1940. His training lasted until the beginning of 1941. On 7 February 1941, Ens. Bass was designated a naval aviator, and on the 20th, he was detached from the Pensacola Air Station. He moved to the Naval Air Station, Miami, Fla., on 24 February for additional instruction before joining Bombing Squadron (VB) 2 in Lexington (CV-2) on 14 May. During the fall of 1941, his ship moved from the west coast to Oahu in the Hawaiian Islands. He and his carrier operated from that base for the remainder of Lexington?s career. On 5 December 1941, two days before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Bass was promoted to lieutenant (junior grade} to date from 2 June 1941. At the time of the attack, his ship was at sea with Task Force (TF) 12 delivering Marine Corps Vought SB2U-3 Vindicators from VMSB-231 to reinforce the defenses of Midway Island. Following the outbreak of hostilities, he participated in missions against enemy installations and shipping--notably the raid on Lae and Salamaua on the northern coast of New Guinea. He was credited with sinking an enemy ship during those attacks on 10 March l942--an action for which he received the Navy Cross. Later, Lt. (jg.) Bass received a gold star in lieu of a second Navy Cross for his part in helping to sink the Japanese small carrier Shoho on 7 May 1942 in the Battle of the Coral Sea. That same battle, however, brought the loss of his ship, Lexington. After suffering severe torpedo and bomb damage, she was scuttled by torpedoes from Phelps (DD-360). Soon after that engagement, on 15 June 1942, Brinkley Bass was promoted to lieutenant. On the 26th, he was ordered to report to the newly established Fighting Squadron (VF) 29. His squadron was assigned to the escort carrier Santee (CVE-29) and, while assigned to that warship, he and his squadron provided air support for the landings in French Morocco between 8 and 11 November. His part in that operation earned him the Silver Star. On 21 December 1942, Lt. Bass succeeded to command of VF-29. He and his squadron served in Santee for about another year. During that time they escorted convoys and conducted hunter-killer antisubmarine patrols. During the late summer of 1943, Santee planes carried out a successful series of actions against German U-boats in the region south of the Azores. For his leadership of VF-29 during that period, Lt. Bass received a letter of commendation and the commendation ribbon. He retained command of VF-29 into the spring of 1944, though the squadron left Santee at the end of 1943. On 11 April 1944, he assumed command of VF-74, and received his promotion to lieutenant commander on the 15th. Late in June, Lt. Comdr. Bass and VF-74 reported on board Kasaan Bay (CVE-69). That escort carrier departed Quonset Point, R.I., on 30 June and arrived at Oran, Algeria, on 10 July. For the next month, his squadron and ship conducted antisubmarine patrols in the Mediterranean and prepared for the invasion of southern France. Kasaan Bay, with Lt. Comdr. Bass and his squadron embarked, departed Valetta, Malta, on 12 August 1944 and arrived off the invasion beaches on the 15th. For the next five days, he led his squadron in bombing and strafing runs on enemy positions and supply lines. Lt. Comdr. Bass was killed on 20 August 1944 when his plane crashed as a result of enemy action. For that last engagement, he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Purple Heart, posthumously. *Citation: The President of the United States takes pride in presenting the Navy Cross (Posthumously) to Harry Brinkley Bass, Lieutenant, Junior Grade, U.S. Navy, for extraordinary heroism in operations against the enemy while serving as Pilot of a carrier-based Navy Dive Bomber in Bombing Squadron TWO (VB-2), embarked from the U.S.S. LEXINGTON (CV-2), in action against enemy Japanese forces over enemy-controlled waters near Lae and Salamaua, New Guinea on 10 March 1942. Lieutenant Bass pressed home, in the face of heavy anti-aircraft fire, a vigorous and determined dive bombing attack on enemy ships, sinking three of them. Lieutenant, Junior Grade, Bass' outstanding courage, daring airmanship and determined skill were at all times inspiring and in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service. *Citation(Second Award): The President of the United States takes pride in presenting a Gold Star in lieu of a Second Award of the Navy Cross (Posthumously) to Harry Brinkley Bass, Lieutenant, Junior Grade, U.S. Navy, for extraordinary heroism in operations against the enemy while serving as Pilot of a carrier-based Navy Dive Bomber in Bombing Squadron TWO (VB-2), embarked from the U.S.S. LEXINGTON (CV-2), in action against enemy Japanese forces during the Air Battle of the Coral Sea on 7 May 1942. In the face of heavy anti-aircraft fire and fierce fighter opposition, Lieutenant, Junior Grade, Bass, leading a flight of his squadron, dived his plane at an enemy Japanese aircraft carrier and released his bomb with calm accuracy. By grim determination and expert appraisal of his objective, he contributed materially to the high percentage of hits inflicted by his particular squadron and assisted in ultimate destruction of the enemy carrier. His individual action was an important factor in the collective success of those United States Naval forces which engaged in the enemy in the Battle of the Coral Sea. Lieutenant, Junior Grade, Bass' outstanding courage, daring airmanship and devotion to duty were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

Neal Bassett (Picture included) President, Firemen's Insurance Company In all Newark there is probably no man who gives closer application to his job than does Neal Bassett, president of the Firemen's Insurance Company. Out of this has come a legend which Mr. Bassett resents very keenly - that the Firemen's is a one-man company. "That imputation is unjust to the directors, other officers, and employees of this company," said Mr. Bassett one day last week. "All have worked in advancing the company to its present position. I admit, however, that the Firemen's Insurance Company is my chief interest, and believe that no man can achieve success unless he spends himself in his chosen field of endeavor. It is true that I frequently work long hours, but I enjoy doing it. While I had a vision some years ago of what this company could eventually develop in business, it could not have been brought about without the loyal support of my associates." When Mr. Bassett joined the Firemen's in 1901 the premium income of the company for the year previous was $350,000, and by January 1, 1916, it reached $2,725,240. Last year with its affiliated companies it was $25,001,307. These figures may explain why Mr. Bassett has become one of the leading fire underwriters of the country. From the South. Mr. Bassett inherits a liking for hard work. His father and grandfather were physicians and the latter was a noted practitioner and writer on medical topics of his time. In fact, Dr. William Osler wrote a book about him. The family are descendants of the family of Richard Bassett, of Delaware, one of the framers and signers of the Constitution of the United States. Most of the descendants lived in the South, and it was in Huntsville, Ala., September 3, 1871, that Mr. Bassett was born. He was educated in private schools in the South and went to work at 20 as clerk in a local insurance company in Waco, Tex. Thus he has been engaged in fire insurance all his business career. He spent seven years in Waco and in 1898 became a special agent for several insurance companies, with his office in New Orleans and Waco. Shortly afterwards he moved to Chicago, and it was in 1901 that he was offered a special agency of the Firemen's. The offer came through Daniel H. Dunham, the president, and Charles Colyer, vice president, and Mr. Bassett made his first trip to Newark to see them. In spite of the fact that the company's premium income for the previous year had been only $120,000 in the seven states of the middle western territory he took over the field. In 1910 he was made manager of the western department at Chicago, and in 1914 he was elected a vice president but continued to make his headquarters in Chicago, with frequent visits to Newark. In 1923 he was made president and moved here. Business increased. The remark that "It is Mr. Bassett's Company" may be a true characterization after all, when speaking of the remarkable growth of the company's business, for it was he who conceived the idea of buying well-established smaller companies for consolidation. In 1916 the Firemen's bought the stock control of The Girard Fire & Marine Insurance Company, of Philadelphia, and The Mechanics Insurance Company, also of Philadelphia. Since then control has been purchased of five other companies - National-Ben Franklin of Pittsburgh, Concordia of Milwaukee, the Capital and Underwriters Fire Insurance Companies of Concord. Last month the company put out the largest stock issue ever authorized by a local company, increasing the capital from $5,000,000 to $7,500,000 through the issuance of 50,000 shares of a par value at $185 a share. The time was none too propitious for new financing and $9,250,000 is still a considerable sum for Newarkers, even in these prosperous days, but stockholders may be interested to know that only about 150 shares were left unsubscribed. This is considered a remarkable record in view of the fact that stockholders had less than two weeks to act. It seems only a few years ago - it was in 1909 - that the famous Firemen's building was completed at the corner of Broad and Market streets. Mr. Bassett had not been here long before he saw the need for expansion and he sponsored the plan for selling the "Four Corners" building. The transaction netted the company a sum sufficient to build its present home on Park place and have something left besides. The building has been occupied only two, but work will soon start on a three-story addition by which it will be possible to double the number of employees. The company has 500 clerks in its main office, 300 in Chicago, 150 in San Francisco and also maintains a large office force in Toronto. Nothing to Do Except Work Mr. Bassett never married, which may explain why he can spend so much time at his office. He makes his home with an aunt at 174 South Mountain avenue, Montclair. Although he does not take the time to play golf he is a member of the Montclair Golf Club. His other club affiliations are the Essex and Down Clubs of this city, Downtown Association and Lotous Club of New York and the Chicago Club of Chicago. He is an officer and director of the fire companies affiliated with the Firemen's and a director of the National State Bank, Montclair Trust Company and the National Commercial Mortgage & Title Guaranty Company. He is a trustee of the Newark Museum Association and a director of the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Bassett is an unusual executive in that he does the opposite to what efficiency experts advise. He believes that his desk is to put things on and not to store them away. He keeps his spacious desk empty, he says, but he likes to have in sight anything unattended to. When he finally gets through with the data it is filed away, but until then he can't fool himself by pretending the work is finished because it is in a desk drawer, out of sight. However, what is most striking about this man from Alabama who has had a part in one of the business romances of Newark - it was nearly fifty years old when Mr. Bassett joined it - is his unfailing courtesy. Engaged in one of the most competitive undertakings, calling for many quick decisions every day, Mr. Bassett appears to the visitor as a gentleman in business. | Bassett, Neal (I394)

| 36087 | Neath Guardian, Friday, 24 January 1936 Well Known Agricultural Figure Byrncoch Family Bereaved A well known and influential figure in agricultural circles has just passed away in the person of Mr. Charles W. Bassett of Tredegar Farm, Llangyfelach, following an operation in Clydach Hospital. He leaves behind a widow, two sons, (Messrs. Philip and Harry Bassett) four daughters (Mrs. Harold A. Bradley, Dyffryn; Nurse Florence and the Misses Lesie and Winifred Bassett) with other relatives to mourn their loss. Mr. Bassett was a native of Eardisley, Hereford, and identified himself prominently with Church life in that parish, serving as chorister, bellringer, lector, and churchwarden for a period of 21 years. Upon leaving there for Wales to take up a farm appointment for Mr. W. J. Percy Player, Clydach, he was presented with many gifts, including a silver tea service, and was given by the then vicar, with the expressed approval of the Easter Vestry, and with a suitable signed inscription, a Bible of historic value ? the gift to the church by a prominent parishioner and church-warden of long service, nearly 100 years ago. Mr. Bassett was the first manager of the West Glamorgan Farmers? Society, and managed for some five years the extensive farm of the Main Colliery Co. on the Dyffryn Estate, and subsequently took over the Tredegar Farm, where his lengthy experience, wisely directed capabilities and diligence, with the efficient co-operation of his family, have proved very successful. A man of resolute will, sterling integrity and genial disposition, his counsel was often sought, and he will be greatly missed, not only in the social and industrial circle, but also in the ancient Church of Llangyfelach, of which he was a staunch and active supporter. (Dated May 1903) "Mr. C.W. Bassett retired as churchwarden at the Easter Vestry Meeting after 15 years of service." "On Thursday May 26th (1904) a complimentary dinner was held at the Corss in honour of a parishioner who always tried to do his duty - Mr. C. W. Bassett. Mr Bassett has left Moss Hill for Kipperknoll, Dinmore. During his residence in Eardisland he was a member of the choir for 30 years and churchwarden for 15." 1901 British Census of 95 The Villa, Kingsland, Hereford George Macklen 74 M Head Tenbury, Worc.
