History on artist Charles Gassion?

Question:

History on artist Charles Gassion?

All I know is he passed away early 1950s, family was from France and he lived in La Honda. Our family bought his home many years later and there were LOTS of old photographs and antiques in the home when we cleared it out. I want to know more about him bc I own some of his art and I was also wondering where he was buried, and if he has any family alive out there that might still be alive........

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I really hope you kept the old photos,

as Charles Gustav Gassion and what must be a relation Lucile Gassion.

you can try going to genforum.com but they don't seem to have a board for the Gassion surname,try Gassian.
