Hassett, J. D. Born in Summit county, Ohio, January 21, 1832, where he resided
until 1852, when he emigrated to California, crossing the plains with ox-teams
as far as Salt Lake and from there to Placerville he made the journey on foot in
company with his brother. Here they mined and worked on the South Fork Ditch
until the following Spring when they came to this county. After remaining for a
short time on a farm about five miles north from Healdsburg, the subject of this
sketch engaged in the mill business, which he conducted for a space of two and
one-half years. He then, in company with his brother, built a saw-mill on Mill
creek, where he labored for two years. He then built the Healdsburg Flouring
Mill, and after conducting it for five years disposed of the property; since
which time he has turned his attention to sheep raising and farming. Married
Miss Sarah E. Vaughan April 3, 1859. James T. and Lulu C. are their only children.
