He married Ida Elizabeth Diggs in 1884 and of this wedlock six children were born.
Mr. Bassette received his early education in Elizabeth City County, Virginia, graduating from the Hampton Normal and Agriculture Institute (presently Hampton University) in 1876, and entered the teaching profession. His teaching career spanned a period of thirty-nine years.
Mr. Bassette's professional attainment and devotion to teaching merited the naming of a school in Hampton,VA in his honor in 1895.
The beautiful school, named in his honor, will be a living monument to his foresight and his untiring devotion to education, to his race, and to humanity."
