About William Basset, of New Haven
Origins
Not a proven son of John “Old” Bassett, but ...
William Bassett of New Haven, Connecticut who died 1684 has no relationship to William Basset of Sandwich or William Bassett of Lynn. This is proven by DNA. The descendants of William Bassett of New Haven, Connecticut have a Y chromosome match to John Bassett of Connecticut who died 1652. The most logical explanation was that John was his father. But he could have simply been from the same lineage. Their DNA also matches the Bassetts of Claybrooke, Leicester, England. Note there are at least 12 different Bassett lineages based on DNA.
The Bassett family association does not recognize any origins or parents (including John Bassett John Bassett and Margery Bassett, suggesting that it has not yet been proved that William Bassett of New Haven was the child baptized 30 May 1624 in St. Martin, Dorking, England. But the family most likely originated in Claybrooke, Leicester, England long ago.
Family
He married Hannah Dickerman 1622 – 1665 and has at least three proven descendants:
- Hannah Bassett 1650 – 1726
- John Bassett 1652 – 1713
- Samuel Bassett 1654 – 1716
I believe that this daughter may also be his:
- Abiah Bassett 1657 – 1684
