Edward1 Bass, born 19 October 1672, was living in Norfolk County on 16 November 1699 when he purchased 15 acres of land on the Western Branch of Elizabeth River from John Fulsher who was the slave owner who freed the Anderson family by his Norfolk County will in 1712. Edward appeared in Norfolk County court on 17 November 1698 and admitted that he owed Hugh Campbell 500 pounds of tobacco, in June 1702 he admitted that he owed Thomas Whinfield 70 pounds of tobacco for goods he purchased at the sale of the estate of William Whitehurst, and on 15 February 1709 he sued Henry Lawley for a 3 pound debt. On 20 July 1711 he was presented by the Norfolk County court for retailing liquor without a license but the presentment was dismissed at his cost when he convinced the court that it was a mistake. On 16 December 1715 he sued Joseph Muns, Jr., for 20 pounds damages for riding his mare [DB 6, no.2, fols. 36, 170, 255; Orders 1708-10, 124b, 141a; 1710-17, 14, 100, 136]. On 30 January 1720/1 he was called "Edward Bass of Norfolk County, Virginia, Parish of Elizabeth" when he purchased 100 acres adjacent to his brother John, near the head of Horsepool Swamp in Chowan Precinct, North Carolina [DB C-1:113]. On 26 March 1723 he was granted 200 acres on Urahaw Swamp in what became Northampton County after 1741 [Hoffman, Province of North Carolina Land Patents, 192]. He and his wife Love sold their land in Chowan County by deed of 28 March 1726 [DB C-1:609].
Between 12 August 1728 and 15 May 1744 he purchased another 615 acres adjoining his land [Bertie DB C:135, Northampton DB 1:40, 89, 129]. His 25 July 1748 Northampton County will was proved in August 1750 and left over 525 acres to his children with the remainder to be sold to discharge debts [Original at N.C. Archives]. He left his wife Lovewell 100 acres during her life. More than ten years later on 7 May 1761 she and her heirs, Lucy Jones and Thomas Cugley, sold this land for 75 pounds to Jethro Bass, her deceased husband's grand nephew [DB 3:121].
