YALE COLLEGE, CLASS OF 1821
ASA CHILD, the eldest of nine children of Rensselaer and Priscilla (CORBIN) Child, of (North) Woodstock, Connecticut, was born on December 2, 1798. A brother was graduated here in 1824.
He studied law, in part with the Hon. Calvin Goddard (Dartmouth Coll. 1786), of Norwich, and in part with Seth P. Staples (Yale 1797), of New Haven, where he was admitted to the bar in June, 1823.
He then settled in practice in Norwich, where he married, on February 13, 1826, Alice Hart, daughter of Calvin and Alice Cogswell (Hart) Goddard, and sister of George C. Goddard (Yale 1820).
His life in Norwich was interrupted by his appointment as United States District Attorney under President Jackson, which involved his residence in Hartford from 1829 to 1831. He then returned to Norwich, but in 1843 removed to Baltimore, and thence to New York City in 1845.
At the end of his life he returned to Norwich, where he died on May 11, 1858, in his 60th year.
His children were two daughters and two sons; of the latter, the elder died in infancy, and the younger was graduated Yale in 1855.
