Notes:
Mrs.NANCY BASS was born in Sullivan county, Indiana, in November, 1807, and was married in 1832 to Nelson BASS, of Vigo county, Indiana, who was a resident of Honey Creek, and a farmer. He died May 4, 1877. He was a member of the Masonic order, and belonged to Darwin Lodge, No. 4, of Terre Haute. He was also a member of the A.M.E. church, having joined the same some time in 1829, and was a consistent christian. They had nine children, two dying in infancy, and three after attaining their growth. Two sons and two daughters are living: George Washington, Jethro, Angeline, and Caroline. Jethro lives in Sullivan county, and Angeline married a Mr. THOMAS, and is settled in Parke county, Indiana. When living in Honey Creek they were robbed of between four and five hundred dollars by four men, names unknown, who entered the house one evening about seven o�clock, and with cocked revolvers demanded their money, and as they were unarmed and helpless there was no alternative but to give up the money. They were greatly damaged by the loss of the money, as some of it belonged to other parties, and they were obliged to deprive themselves of many of the necessaries of life in order to repay it. Mrs. BASS also belonged to the ladies� court of the Masonic order, which is now dissolved. She is one of those who by their example serve to cement the community together in which they live.
