1513-Leander Sackett (1795-1869)
Compiled by Mary Lou Sackett <mlsackett@team-national.com>
and Thurmon King
Written by Thurmon E. KingLeander Sackett was the 5th child and 3rd son of Dea. Salmon Sackett and Mercy Matilda Curtis; born 20 Apr 1794 at Warren, Litchfield Co., CT.
When his father moved the family from Warren, CT to Tallmadge, Portage Co., OH in 1811; Leander was 16 years old. When he turned 21 his father gave him some land off the east side of Lot No. 2 on Tract 15. However, he was not inclined to farm the land and worked by the month for others in the area.
Bronson says of him; "He was one that could chop, roll logs, split rails, and lay up rail fence, and reap the grain with a sickle." ... "Mr. Sackett, in his younger days, was inclined to be positive, and was outspoken, and some what impulsive, he was not always judicious in his remarks; and at times made himself trouble which with caution might have been avoided. After he left Tallmadge, in 1822 he would return and spend a day or two among his friends and old acquaintance[sic], but for many of the last years of his life he did not visit Tallmadge."
During the War of 1812; Leander Sacket and Norman Sacket served in Capt. Rial McArthur's Company from August 22 until October 29, 1812. Part of this company also served from April 27 until May 22, 1813. Interestingly, Leander Sackett and Harvey Sackett are listed in Capt. Samuel Hale's Company which served from August 22 until October 3, 1812. The beginning dates of the service under Capt. McArthur and Capt Hale are the same while Capt. McArthur's campaign was 21 days longer. This could indicate that some of the men under Capt. Hale transferred to Capt. McArthur when Capt. Hale's Company service came to an end.
According to Bronson, Leander began a course of study, in 1812, with Elizur Wright, Esq. to prepare for service in some mission field. We are not sure whether he started his study with Elizur Wright before, or after his service in the War of 1812. And we have no record of what Leander did between his military service of April and May, 1813 and his 1st marriage in 1821.
On 3 Jan 1821 he was married, in Portage Co., to Rebecca Conant of Windham, Portage Co., OH by Rev. Joseph Treat. Rebecca was the daughter of Thatcher Conant and his wife Elizabeth. The Conants moved from Windham, CT to Windham, OH between 2 May and 28 Jul 1811. Between 1811 and her marriage in 1821 Rebecca served along with Elizabeth Streator as a school teacher in Windham.
In March, 1821 Leander, and probably Rebecca, went to Pittsburg where he enlisted as boatman for a Mission known as "The Great Osage Mission" which embarked in two boats going down the Ohio River to the Mississippi River and up that river to the Missouri River and up it to the Osage River and up it to where the mission station was established. It is not clear whether Leander remained at the mission station for any length of time, or served only as a boatman and returned to Pittsburg.
Bronson states that in 1822 a mission was organized under the United Missionary Society to establish a mission among the Indians on the Maumee River, some 30 miles above Toledo, OH, near the site of Maumee City. And that Leander and Rebecca joined that mission in some capacity.
The histories of Toledo, Lucas County and Wood County, Ohio give an account of the mission station: Among the more prominent of early Christian workers in the Maumee Valley, was Reverend Isaac Van Tassel. Born in Durham, New York, 1791, he came to Ashtabula, Ohio, in 1821. In the Summer of 1822 he was appointed to the Maumeee Mission by the Western Missionary Society at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and was the first of the Mission force on the ground. In September, 1822, at Ashtabula, Ohio, Mr. Van Tassel was married with Miss Lucia Badger, daughter of Reverend Joseph Badger. They landed at Maumee, October 27, 1822. Mr. Van Van Tassel proceeded to the Mission house, located nine miles up the River at the mouth of Tontogany Creek, the Island also belonging to the Mission grounds, which, beside the Island, embraced 240 acres. The Mission building consisted of a log house, 16x60 feet. The Mission family embraced 13 members, beside employes. The balance of the family having meantime arrived, work with the poor Ottawas was commenced November 26, 1822. The family consisted of Reverend Samuel Tate, wife and son ; Reverend Alvah Coe and wife ; Reverend Isaac Van Tassel and wife; Leander Sacket (the mission farmer) and Rebecca his wife; John McPherrin (carpenter) ; Mr. Straight (blacksmith) ; Miss Sabina Stevens and Miss Hannah Riggs. The distinctive work of the Mission was the instruction of the young of the tribe in the English language, rather than reaching adults through their own language. Mrs. Sackett opened the school for Indian children, and "taught the red urchins" for a few weeks, when she retired from that department of the work. Mrs. Lucia B. VanTassel taught there for a year. She was followed by other teachers who saw a class of half a dozen increased to thirty out of fifty enrolled pupils. The adults were not neglected, the Missionaries preaching to them as best they could through interpreters. At first, they were shy and distrustful ; but soon became more confiding. Some 30 were believed to have been converted. The work might have been more successful, but for the opposition made to it by neighboring Indian traders, whose traffic was most profitable when they were left to deal with the Indians without interference such as Missionary work inevitably caused. The Indians are spoken of as kindly in their intercourse and specially grateful for favors shown them. In 1826 the Mission was taken in charge by the American Board of Foreign Missions, and Mr. Van Tassel was appointed superintendent. Leander's obituary says that the Mission was abandoned in 1829 while the History of Wood Co., OH gives 1834 as the year the Mission was abandoned after the government relocated the Indians to Kansas and Nebraska.
During the years the Mission was in operation Leander is found listed in the 1826 Tax list for Perrysburg Twp., Wood Co., OH for his Personal Property. He is also listed as one of the trustees of Perrysburg Twp., Wood County in 1827 and as one of the commissioners of Wood County from 1828-1830.
According to an article in the Charleston Observer; Leander's wife, Rebecca, died April 12, 1828 at Windham, Portage Co., OH and she was said to have been "late of the Mission family at the Maumee." However, the Conant family genealogy gives the location of her death as at the mission. We have a record of only one child born to Leander and Rebecca, a son, Samuel M. Sackett b. 21 Oct 1825; probably at the Maumee Mission Station.
While it is not clear whether or not Rebecca returned to Windham, Portage Co., OH before her death; we do know that Leander is found in the records of Wood Co., OH in the years following Rebecca's death. As stated above, Leander served as a commissioner of Wood Co. from 1828-1830. Had he not been present in the county during this period, he doubtless would have been replaced as commissioner.
From his obituary we learn that some time between the death of Rebecca in 1828 and the closure of the Mission Station, Leander married Elizabeth "Eliza" Conant, b. 9 Dec 1799 at Mansfield, Tolland Co., CT, daughter of Eleazer Conant and Elizabeth Cummins. According to records in the LDS IGI Eleazer and Elizabeth were married in 1792 at Mansfield, Tolland Co., CT and that both died at Maumee, Lucas Co., OH. His death is given as 13 Sep 1819 and hers is given as 12 Sep 1819. From the place of their death, there is a possibility that the Conants were part of the mission family, or staff. The actual date of January 1, 1830 for the marriage of Leander Sackett and Eliza C. Conant is found in Eliza's widow's pension file (No. 13547). An affidavit by Eliza's half brother, Horatio Conant, dated Aug 27, 1878 states that he married them in his capacity as Justice of the Peace for Maumee City, Lucas Co., Ohio.
Some time after his marriage to Elizabeth, Leander migrated to Michigan. His obituary says that he made the move in 1832 or 1833 from Maumee City to Monroe Co., MI; where he operated a hotel known as "Mansion House" at LaPlaisance Bay, the present site of Monroe, MI. The hotel was located on the south side of the River Raisin where it empties into Lake Erie. It had the advantage of being the first, and best, stop for people who came in from the east, through the Erie Canal.
On November 24, 1835 Leander received Patent on 81.41 acres in Twp. 5S; R6E (Land records of Monroe Co., MI) On June 15, 1837 Leander Sackett with Claudius Sackett bought 80 acres from the Federal Government described as W1/2NW; Sec. 33; Twp. 7S; MPM [Document #10459]. Claudius is believed to be the son of Norman Sackett, Leander's brother. Norman's wife died in 1827 and his children were placed in the homes of his brothers and sisters. On August 5, 1837, Claudius C. Sackett bought more GLO land in Monroe Co. [Document #12344]
In the 1840 census for Raisinville, Monroe Co., MI Leander is listed with his wife and two children; boy age 15-20 [Samuel M. b. 1825] and a daughter age 5-10 [Martha J. b. 1835]. Also listed in his household are two males age 20-30 and two females age 20-30. The two males age 20-30 are believed to have been Leander's nephews, Horatio Northrup Sackett (b. 1812) and Claudius Cook Sackett (b. 1813), sons of Leander's brother Norman. While the two females age 20-30 would possibly be their wives.
According to a book with the headstone transcriprions for the Sackett (aka King) Cemetery on South Custer Rd., Raisinville Twp., Monroe Co., MI; the land for the cemetery was donated by Leonard (Leander) Sackett about 1840. When Leander died he was buried in this cemetery.
There is an account of an 1844 incident recorded in Bulkley's "History of Monroe Co., MI" concerning the county sheriff, General Humphrey, and Leander Sackett constituting themselves "a committee with unlimited powers" when three boxes of money being transported by stagecoach from Detroit to the Bank of Monroe were stolen from the back luggage compartment, called the "boot," of the stagecoach.
Upon investigation the sheriff determined that the money boxes had disappeared while the stage was stopped for a change of horses, and a meal for the passengers, at a tavern operated by a Mr. Bass at Monguagon Creek. Mr. Bass appears to have been a man of questionable character so General Humphrey took Leander Sackett and they went immediately to the home of Mr. Bass.
Mr. Bass denied having any knowledge of the missing money boxes. But being confident that Bass was "their man" they took him into the woods across from his house and tied him to a tree and whipped him until he finally confessed and returned the money boxes. One can only wonder what the outcome would have been had Mr. Bass been innocent.
By 1850 Leander's household was enumerated as consisting of Leander age 54, his wife Eliza C. age 57, and their daughter Artha [Martha] J. age 15, born in MI.

[Note: Considering the information above, one will notice that there are some errors in the obituary. TK]
"Leander Sackett, an old, well known and highly esteemed resident of Monroe County, died at his residence in Raisinville, on Thursday Sept. 2nd, after a protracted illness of tumor in the stomach. Mr. Sackett was born in Windham, Connecticut, in April 1794, and was therefore in the 76th year of his age. His father's family removed from Connecticut to the Western Reserve, in Ohio, when he was a lad of ten or twelve years, the trip being made with ox teams, and occupying six or eight weeks. In 1822 Mr. Sackett, having then married, came to Maumee with his wife, and associated with Mr. Vantosole, established an Indian Mission, some 30 miles above Toledo. Here he remained until 1829, when the Station was abandoned; the Indians having been removed farther west. He then resided some three or four years at Maumee City, during which time he married Miss Eliza Conant, having lost his first wife while at the Mission Station. In 1832 or 33 he removed to Monroe, where he remained until 1836, as proprietor of the old Mansion House, the leading Hotel; which occupied the present site of Dansard's Bank. Mr. Sackett then removed to a farm on the banks of the River Raisin, in Raisinville, where he spent the remainder of his days. He was a man of great energy and activity, with an unusual developement of hopeful enthusiasm; and became intimately connected with every movement for the benefit or improvement of the town or community, frequently neglecting his own interests and bearing burdens alone that should have been shared by others. In 1852 Mr. Sackett was a delegate to the Buffalo Convention that formed the Free Soil Party, and since the formation of the Republican Party he has been an enthusiastic and earnest advocate of its principles. He leaves a wife and one son --S.M. Sackett, Druggist, of this City."======== Sources =========
