| Notes |
- William3 Bass (John2, William1, John1), born say 1712, sold the land he inherited in Northampton County to John Bass on 30 December 1742 [DB 2:185]. He was one of the first members of the Bass family in Granville County where he was taxed in the list of Jonathan White in 1749. In 1761 he was taxable with his son Thomas in Oxford District. On 19 November 1762 he purchased 200 acres on the south side of Cedar Creek near the Beaver Dam Branch from Thomas Huland (Huelin) [DB F:441]. He was a "Black" taxable in Granville County in John Pope's list for St. John's Parish, Bare Swamp District, in 1762. Bute County was formed from this part of Granville County in 1764, and in 1771 he was a Bute County taxable in the list of Philemon Hawkins on 5 "Black" tithes: himself, his wife, daughter "Honner," and sons Ben and John [CR 015.70001, p.12]. He may have been the William Bass who appeared in Granville County court on 7 April 1770 as the "next Friend" of Olive Bass when she sued Jean Tylor, alias Mitchell [Minutes 1754-70, 202]. William sold 100 acres on the south side of Cedar Creek to Sampson Bass on 26 January 1771 and another 100 acres adjoining this on 17 September 1771 [Warren County DB 3:224; 4:263]. His children were
i. ?Simon1, not identified as William's son, but listed adjacent to him in Philemon Hawkins' Bute County list of taxables, taxed on 4 "Black" tithes for himself, his unnamed wife, son James, and (daughter?) Elizabeth.
ii. Thomas4, born about 1749 since he was taxable in 1761 in his father's Oxford District household. He was an overseer, taxable in Nathan Thomas's household in the 1771 Bute County list of Philemon Hawkins [CR 015.70001, p.4].
iii. ?Frederick1, born say 1750.
iv. Honor1, born say 1752, taxable in 1771 in Bute County.
v. Benjamin2, born say 1754, taxable in 1771 in Bute County.
vi. John8, born before 1760, taxable in 1771 in Bute County.
