  Jethro1 Bass (John3, John2, William1, John1), born say 1734, received a deed of gift of 200 acres on the north side of Urahaw Swamp in Northampton County from his father John3 Bass on 24 February 1755 [DB 2:185]. He purchased a total of 740 acres of land in the same area between 1761 and 1777 [DB 4:121, 127, 128, 179; 5:11; 6:125, 326]. He and his wife Susannah sold 50 acres of this land on 12 February 1773 [DB 5:265]. He was head of a Northampton County household of 8 "other free" and 3 slaves in 1790 [NC:74]. His 27 September 1794 Northampton County will, proved March 1795, left land and slaves to his children, but left his wife Elizabeth only the labor of one slave until son Jethro became twenty-one [WB 2:73]. Elizabeth challenged the will in Northampton court when it was proved on 2 March 1795 [Minutes 1792-96, 147, 166].
