History of Oakland County, Michigan (Suplement) John Bassett Novi The father of this gentleman, Samuel Bassett, late of Bloomfield township, Oakland County, was born in New Haven county, Connecticut, in March, 1784. From thence, about 1806, he removed to Ovid, Seneca county, New York, where his son, John Bassett, the subject of this sketch, was born May 29, 1816. In June, 1832, he removed to Michigan with his father, who settled in Bloomfield. John remained with him there until 1837, in which year - February 18 - he married Ervilla Coomer, of Farmington, and settled in Novi, on a tract of two hundred and forty acres of land purchased from government by his father in 1831, and which constitutes the fine homestead farm on which he still resides. Samuel Bassett continued his residence in Bloomfield township until his death, which occurred in the autumn of 1873, at the age of eighty-nine years.
