Francis Henry Fassett (June 25, 1823 - November 1, 1908) was an American architect in Maine who built as many as 400 homes and buildings throughout the state. Working in the Victorian High Gothic and Queen Anne styles, he especially influenced the look of Portland.
==Beginnings in Bath==
Francis H. Fassett was born in Bath, the son of John Fassett and Betsey (Turner) Fassett. He was educated at the Old Erudition School until the age of fourteen, when he became a clerk in a general store. After four years, he was indentured to Isaac D. Cole, a leading carpenter and builder, to learn the trade. Serving his apprenticeship, Fassett then went into business for himself. He showing a natural aptitude for design, and from the beginning drew his own plans. When travelling, he learned a great deal about architecture from strolling through the cities he visited.〔(Henry Sweetser Burrage & Albert Roscoe Stubbs, ''Genealogical and Family History of the State of Maine,'' Volume 2; Lewis Historical Publishing Company, New York 1909 )〕 After twenty years in Bath, he moved in 1864 to Portland, "...regarding that as presenting a wider field for his business." 〔(''The Coastal Journal'' -- Francis H. Fassett )〕
