During this period of 25 years he built many of the very best business houses and residences the New Albany, Ind., and Louisville, KY., as well as such noted buildings as the Floyd County Court House, the New Albany Opera House, and the New Albany Christian and Wesley M. E. Church. Meantime he interested himself in the manufacturing industries, railroads, and all public enterprises of the New Albany, having for their object the betterment of that city. That his energy, public spirit and integrity were appreciated, is fully shown by the fact that he was County Commissioner for some ten years, County Auditor for eight years, and for a long period a member of the City Council. He was the heaviest stockholder and president of the New Albany Forge and Rolling Mill, and in the fullest sense of the term a model citizen. His wife was an aunt of Judge Walter O[sic].[Quinton] Gresham, of the U. S. Courts of Indiana and Illinois and Wisconsin, and who served as both Postmaster General and Secretary of State under President Cleveland. [Weygant, p. 214]

      Mr. Charles Sackett, one of the oldest residents of the city, died this morning at his home, 312 West First street, aged nearly ninety-one years. . . Mr. Sackett was a native of Massachusetts but had resided in this city for over fifty-five years. He was born May 13, 1813, and would have celebrated his ninety-first birthday anniversary next month. He came west when a young man and first settled near Harrod's Creek, Ky., and afterward at Mauckport, Ind. Later he moved to Corydon and in 1848 he moved to New Albany. He leaves ten children. They are Mr. Ozam Sackett, Mrs. E. J. Brooks, Mrs. Fred D. Connor, Mrs. Alice Knight, Mrs. Harry W. Vance, Miss Katherine Sackett and Miss Ida Sackett, of this city; Mr. George Sackett, of Seattle, Wash.; Mr. William Sackett, of Louisville and Mrs. J. E. Robinson, of McLeansboro, Ill. A few weeks ago a family reunion was held at which all the children were present. Mr. Sackett was an uncle of the late Gen. Walter Q. Gresham, who was secretary of state under President Cleveland. Mr. Sackett was a contracting carpenter and accumulated a handsome estate but by the failure of the ill-fated steam forge works about sixteen years ago he lost nearly $75,000. - New Albany Evening Tribune 07 Apr 1904
