General Notes: Husband - Peter Tassey

---

Formerly of Canada, he was of French descent. He removed to New York state, locating at Redwood, where he was engaged as a master boat-builder, and also owned boats and land along the St. Law­rence river. At one time he owned most of the land afterward included in the village of Redwood, and he was a very prominent man in his section in many ways. He served as jus­tice of the peace. He built the stone Catholic church at Redwood and gave it to the congre­gation, and he was particularly noted for his generosity to the widows and orphans of Civil war soldiers. Unfortunately he lost most of his property during the Civil war period. Mr. Tassey was a very fine musician and quite celebrated in his locality as a bass singer, and he purchased one of the first of the Chicker­ing pianos and became quite proficient as a player.
