Van Der Heyden, he occupied part of his house until he could com- plete his own dwelling, which he erected on the west side of the river road (now River street ), on the second lot south of present Ferry street.

BASSETT De Bas is a well-known

French surname. The Anglo- Saxon form is Bass, Basse, Bassus, Bassite or Bassett. Other variations of the name are Bassano, Basselin, Bassan- tien and Bassinus. It is a popular tradition that the name came from the French word, bas, meaning in this connection, short of stat- ure. Bassett is a name found on the roll of Battle Abbey, Thurstine de Bassett (the extra t was not added until the fifteenth century), grand Falconer of William the Conqueror, ac- companied him from Normandy and from him are descended all the English Bassetts. Corn- wall and Devonshire, England, have always been strongholds of the family and many of them have been owners of the rich Cornwall mines. Two distinguished members of the family were Sir Francis Bassett, vice-admiral under King Charles I .; another Sir Francis, in the reign of George III., was made Baron Bassett and Baron of Dunstanville. Under Henry I., Osmund Bassett was judge of all Britain, as was his great-grandson under Henry III. Allan Bassett's name appears in Magna Charta among those of the King's counsellors. Peter Bassett was biographer of Henry V. and his chamberlain. Fulk Bassett is remembered in the records of St. Paul's Cathedral on account of his gifts to that church. The Bass arms are: "Gules, a chev- ron, argent between three plates. Crest: a demi-lion. gules, resting his paw on an oval shield in cartouch, or, charged with a fluer-de- lis, azure."

The first of the name in America was Wil- liam Bassett or Bassite, who came over in the "Fortune" in 1621. The tradition is that he intended joining the "Mayflower" pilgrims, but waited for his bride. He was an educated man and brought his box of books with him. He was freeman in 1633; for six years represen- tative to the old colony court ; helped to lay out Duxbury, and served in the Pequot war. A son, grandson and great-grandson were named William, a favorite name in the family. William Henry Harrison, former president of the United States, got his first name from the Bassett family, to which his mother belonged. Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware, was a son of a Bassett, mother a granddaughter of Rich- ard Bassett, governor of Delaware and mem- ber of the convention of 1787 which framed the Constitution of the United States and the first to cast a vote for the removal of the capi- tol from Philadelphia to Washington. An-

other William Bassett came to America at age nine in the ship "Abigail." John Bassett came from England to New Haven, Connecti- cut, in 1643. Robert Bassett was another emigrant, as was Joseph. Thomas Bassett came in 1634 in the ship "Christian," settling in Connecticut. Another very early settler was Samuel Bass, who settled in Massachu- setts in 1630. His son John married Ruth, daughter of John and Priscilla (Mullins) Al- den of the "Mayflower." The family have always taken prominent parts in the develop- ment of the nation. They helped to subdue both forests and Indians and were at the front during the revolution : one hundred and fifty of the name serving from the state of Massa- chusetts alone. Moses Bass sent six sons and Henry Bass was one of the famous "Boston Tea Party." The Bass family was connected by marriage with the Faneuils who gave to Boston "Faneuil Hall," called the "Cradle of Liberty." The Bassett arms are those of Thurstine de Bassett, "the falconer": Argent. a chevron between three bugle horns, sable, crest : a stag's head cabossed: between the attires, a cross fitchee, all argent. Motto: "Gwill angua na chywilydd." "Death before dishonor," the motto having probably been added by Wesh members of the family. The line in New York was first settled in Wash- ington county by Captain John Bassett, a de- scendant of Cornelius Bassett, who probably came direct from England.

(1) Captain John Bassett was a ship master, captain of a sailing vessel which ran between England and the New England colonies of North America. It has been maintained and often stated by James Bassett that his father, Captain John Bassett, piloted the French fleet in 1780 into Newport, and thus Count de Rochambeau and his soldiers were guided by the hand of a Bassett to the land which their bravery did so much to free from British tyranny. About 1760 he married Annie Hilli- man and had sons: James ; John ; Henry, the latter going west and settling in Michigan.

(II) James, son of Captain John and Annie (Hilliman) Bassett, was born in Greenwich, Washington county, New York, about 1785. He was engaged in the grocery business; a Quaker in religion ; a Whig in politics ; mar- ried, in town of Easton, Washington county, New York, 1806, Mary, daughter of John Worth (a first cousin of General William Jenkins Worth) and his wife, Jemima (Swayne) Worth. Children: Frederick M., Caroline Tefft, John W., Edwin A., Susan, Harriet, Anna M., Oscar M. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bassett are buried at Fort Miller.

(IV) Richard Oscar, son of Oscar M. and Frances M. (Mills) Bassett, was born in the village of Fort Miller, town of Fort Edward, Washington county, New York, April 15, 1863. He was educated in the public schools of Fort Miller, Schuylerville high school, and private school of Rev. Samuel B. Bostwick. He is an attorney at law, admitted 1886 from attorney's office of Delaware & Hudson Com- pany, where he remained for seven or eight years, since which time he has practiced his profession in the city of Albany, New York, where he is now ( 1911) in practice. He is a member of Blue Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, and in politics a Republican. His church connection is Protestant Episcopal. He married, June 15, 1892, in Albany, Sara A., born in that city. 1872, daughter of Robert and Catherine (Race) Wands, of New Scot- land, Albany county, New York, the former a policeman, a veteran of the civil war. His father, William Wands, and his six brothers settled in New Scotland, Albany county, New York: they were Scotch. Catherine (Race) Wands was a daughter of William and An- toinette (Corbett ) Race. Children: 1. Rich- ard Oscar (2), born March 13, 1893, grad- uate of Albany high school, student. 2. Cath- erine Worth, born August 23, 1900, student at public school. 3. Lloyd Tefft, born 1902, de- ccased. 4. Ilerbert, deceased.

The ancestor of the L'AMOREAUX L'Amoreaux family was a French Protestant Huguenot, one of a large number of refugees forced to leave France in consequence of re- ligious persecutions either before or after the revocation by Louis XIV. of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. These refugees set sail for the American colonies and landed at New Rochelle, Westchester county, New York, be- tween 1685 and 1750. In consequence of the meager records it is impossible to fix the exact date of arrival. There can be little doubt

some of these French Huguenots had com- menced a settlement at New Rochelle before 1687. It is reasonably well established the Huguenots, or French Protestants. of New Rochelle were a part of the vast multitude who were driven from France by persecu- tions for conscience sake and sought refuge in lands where they might enjoy religious freedom. Some of them, it is said, came from the West Indies, where they had lived for some years after leaving France, while others came no doubt from England and were a part of the fifty thousand persecuted who fled into that country before the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. This is confirmed by the charter of Trinity Church in New Rochelle, wherein they specify that they fled from France in 1681 : that they were subsequently transported in the King's ships and landed on Daven- port's Neck at a place called Bauffets, or Bonnefays Point. It seems about this time thirty familes comprised this colony of Hugue- nots. Very little is known of them at just this period, except that other Huguenots ar- rived from time to time, so that by the year 1710 there was a total population of two hun- dred and sixty-one persons. The fact that these colonists had sacrificed all their posses- sions in France and suffered exile for the sake of a principle is evidence enough that they were men of strong character. That many of them were also highly educated and intelligent is apparent even in the meager rec- ords which show how their public and private. affairs were conducted. A bronze tablet now marks the spot upon which these Huguenots first set foot upon the land of their adoption.

Mr. L'Amoreaux's descendants are domi- ciled in many of the states of the Union and in many parts of the state of New York. These descendants to the number of hundreds assemble annually at reunions at Cayuga Lake, New York. This article has to do with the Peter L'Amoreaux hranch of the family that settled at Peekskill, Dutchess county, afterward, at a comparatively carly date, re- moved to Rose Valley, Wayne county, New York.

(I) Peter L'Amoreaux was born July 12. 1761; married Elizabeth L'Amoreaux, born September 12, 1760, and are buried at Rose Valley, New York. They had children: I. Daniel, born October 24, 1785, son of Eliza- beth by a former husband. 2. John, born Oc- tober 24. 1787. 3. Jesse, of further mention. 4. Catherine, born December 1. 1793 : married Joel Brundage; lived in Rensselaer county, New York. 5. Jocl, born January 15, 1797; married a Mrs. Baldwin, and had son Sulli- van, lieutenant-colonel New York Ninth
