    • History of the Crispe Family
      (Includes picture of Mr. and Mrs. E.C. Crispe)
      The Bassett family inhabited the County of Kent, England, and their homestead was at West Peckham. George Bassett, the grandfather of Mrs. E.T. Crispe, was born at West Peckham, England, about the year 1774. He had a common school education. He was a man of medium size, and possessed an agreeable disposition. His wife was of slender stature. He died in 1843. His wife was 64 years old when she died. They had six children - Richard, Calab, George, Isabella, Martha and Mary. Of these children George was the father of Mrs. E.T. Crispe; he was born at West Peckham in 1802; he was a farmer by occupation, and when about twenty years old married Miss Mary Stone, and they resided at East Peckham, England. At the age of fifty-five he became totally blind. He was five feet, seven inches tall, and weighted about 150 pounds; he was a great lover of music, and was constantly heard whistling. In business affairs he was unusually strict, and of a rather retired nature. His wife, Miss Stone, was of Yalding, Kent, England; she was born in 1792, and in 1828 married George Bassett; she died in 1872 and was buried in Tunbridge, Kent. She was retired in disposition, and very industrious. The appearance of her home was her daily concern; and she was exceedingly neat and tidy in all she executed. She loved her children devotedly, and this affection bordered on worship. These parents were blessed with a family of five children - Mary, born 1829; Emma, born 1831; Caroline, born 1833; Julia, born 1836; and Martha, born 1839. Of these, Mary died single; Julia was married to Mr. Calab Bell, and their children are: George, Calab, Arthur, Emma, Ella, Herald and Alfred; Emma married Mr. E.T. Crispe; Martha married Dr. Maughn, no issue; Caroline died at the age of twenty-eight.
      Miss Emma Bassett, who married Mr. E.T. Crispe, is of special interest. She was born at East Peckham, England; was married on February 11, 1852, and emigrated with her husband to America, where her career complements that of her husband. She has inherited from her mother the great love of systematic housewifery, and her industrious figure is constantly striving to keep her home in neatest appearance. Her accomplishment in the art of cooking is known to all who have had the pleasure of her prandian preparations. The congenial disposition of which she is possessed has been an element in her nature which has characterized her through life. Their children are - Mary Stone (a), Edward Case (b), Julia Emma (c), William Howard (d), John Leonard (e), and Allie Needham (f).
