History

Файл:Rancho La Puente.png
Modern-day Bassett sits on land that was originally part of Rancho La Puente, a Mexican era rancho grant.

Joseph Workman, the son of William Workman, owned Шаблон:Convert of the Rancho La Puente land, and borrowed money on the property. He was not able to keep up the mortgage payments so the bank acquired the property. In 1895, O.T. Bassett bought the property and Bassett Township was established.[4] In 1921, Josephine (Workman) Akley, the youngest child of Joseph Workman, won a lawsuit to recover an interest in the Rancho La Puente land that her father sold. However, the decision was reversed in 1922.
