horseback from Cambridge, VT, to Granville, OH, in 1819 to join his younger brother, Elias, who had
made the same trip in 1817. He married, lived, practiced medicine, and raised his family in nearby
Johnstown where he stayed until retiring to a Granville farm in 1854. Several of his children, Ann Fassett
Germain, Noah Chittenden Fassett, and Harris Harding Fassett, had emigrated to California between
1852 and 1854 as part of the Gold Rush, and in 1872, Harry and his wife, Clarissa, left Ohio by train (the
cross-country rail link was finished in 1869) to spend the rest of their days in California with their
children. Harry died at the home of his son N.C. Fassett in Oakland May 19, 1872, shortly after reaching
California. NOTES: [1993-04-19, from notes by Edward Sears Castle] 'HARRY FASSETT rode on
horseback from Cambridge, Vt. (a few miles north-west of Mt. Mansfield), to Johnstown, Ohio, in about
1880. He long practised medicine in Johnstown, and there married Clarissa Peck, daughter of a widow by
that name who had immigrated from Nova Scotia. The sixth of the ten children of this couple was Sarah
Fassett, who became the wife of her schoolteacher, William Augustus Castle; she was my paternal
grandmother. She was a small, long-faced, somewhat sad-eyed, quiet woman with a tremendous head of
hair. She often stayed with us in Belmont, and with my Uncle Edward and Aunt Mary at their chicken
farm in E. Bridgewater, Mass.' Clarissa: The Pecks moved from Nova Scotia to Johnstown, OH, when
Clarissa was 14 years old. She met her future husband Dr. Harry Fassett there.

Ohio briefly in the summer of 1854 and brought his younger brother, Harris Harding

Francisco leaving Harris in charge of the store. His San Francisco ventures were also
successful, and he traveled frequently extending his business interests throughout the
region and into Mexico. He was able to send his father substantial funds from his profits,
and, after his marriage to Hattie Bottsford, lived in Oakland. Eventually, his parents and
