Ancel Henry Bassett
Ancel Henry Bassett (July 1, 1809 – August 30, 1886) was a Methodist minister, author, editor, and historian who left the Methodist Episcopal Church to join the Methodist Protestant Church soon after its founding in 1830. He became an influential leader of that denomination, editing one of its primary periodicals, the ''Western Recorder''. In 1875 the General Conference of the Methodist Protestant Church requested that he write and publish a denominational history, which was published in 1877.
==Early Life and Ministry==
He was born in Sandwich, Massachusetts, the youngest child of Elihu and Abigail (Dillingham) Bassett. The Bassetts moved to Cincinnati, Ohio in 1810, and Ancel's father died there in 1814. He became a Christian at age twelve and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church.〔Colhouer, 448.〕 While attending school in Cincinnati, he was able to study Greek, as well as work in a book bindery in the evenings and on Saturdays.〔Bassett, xxv.〕 In 1827 he observed some of the debates of the Methodist reform movement, and when the movement formally seceded from the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1828 over the issue of bishops and representation of the laity, he left the church to join the new Methodist Protestant Church.〔Drinkhouse, v.〕 After meeting him, Asa Shinn, a minister and leader in the Methodist Protestant Church, encouraged him to enter the ministry, and he was licensed to preach in Cincinnati in 1830. Three years later he was elected to serve as Secretary of the Ohio Conference, which he did for seven consecutive years, and then he was elected to serve as President of the Conference, which he did for five years.〔Colhouer, 449.〕
