Lucy married Tomas Jefferson Bassett shortly before the war between the states was over.
She died of typhoid fever five months after
the were wed. Jeff Bassett (she called him
“my Tommy) was my great grandfather’s brother. He, Benjamin Harrison Bassett and his brother Jeff built and established the Bassett and Bassett House of Banking in Brenham, Texas. The building is still there on the corner of Main and Market Street a block and a half from the county courthouse. The Bassett brothers were attorneys as well as bankers, having graduated from Yale law school. Short text of very long story. LBR
