    Notes:

    Elijah2 Bass (Frederick1, William3, John2, William1, John1), born say 1775, was head of an Anson County household of 3 "other free" in 1800 [NC:204]. He may have been the Elijah Bass who was counted in Robeson County that same year, head of a household of 5 "other free" in 1800 [NC:362] and 6 in Robeson County in 1810 [NC:237]. He was granted administration on the Robeson County estate of (his brother?) Frederick Bass on 200 pounds security on 9 April 1801 [Minutes 1797-1806, 149]. He was one of the freeholders of Robeson County ordered to work on a road with Breton Barnes on the first Monday in July 1807 [Minutes 1806-13, 38] but was not mentioned again in Robeson County records. He may have been the same Elijah Bass who was head of a Kershaw District, South Carolina household of 6 "other free" and 2 slaves in 1810 [SC:433]. He wrote a 28 December 1839 Kershaw County will, recorded on 16 June 1854, describing himself as a "freeman of Color." He mentioned but did not name his children and lent his wife Milbury Eliza 500 acres "on waters of Beaver Dam and Bell Branch, waters of Twenty Five mile Creek of the Wateree river in Kershaw" which was conveyed to him on 10 February 1809. And he suggested that "my wife may desire to return to North Carolina. Elijah Bass" (signing) [WB A:231]. In August 1846 a grandchild of Elijah Bass named Mrs. White sued a South Carolina tax collector for attempting to collect from her the "free Negro" capitation tax. She testified that her grandmother was a "mulatto," her grandfather a Revolutionary soldier, her father Elijah Bass a "dark quadroon if he was one," and her brother an "ordinary white sandhill boy" [Catterall, Judicial Cases Concerning American Slavery, II:400-1]. Elijah may have been the father off

    i. Frederick3, born say 1795, purchased 103 acres in Robeson County on the east side of Bay Branch on 6 May 1820 [DB S:275].

    ii. Joseph4, born after 1776, head of a Robeson County household of 7 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:300].

    Elijah married Eliza Matilda Milbury. Eliza was born 1775, North Carolina, USA; died 1802, Marion, Marion, South Carolina, USA. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    BASS Moses Bass had a mill described as "old" on Raft Swamp before 12
    Nov. 1766 (Bladen County Deed Book, 1738-1779, 348-349). This name
    was not found in tax lists of Bladen 1775-1789. In the 1850 census of
    Robeson, some Bass families reported being born in Anson County before
    1790 and others in Robeson after 1815. Some Bass families were listed as
    White before 1800 and appear to have been Lumbee. The families of Elijah
    and Joseph Bass appear as "mulatoe" in the 1830 census of Robeson. The
    Bass surname appears as Indian in the Shoe Heel [Maxton] township in the
    1870 census of Robeson. The name Bass (sometimes Boss) is found among
    the Nansemond Indians of Norfolk Co., Va., as free persons of color in
    Granville and Halifax counties, North Carolina and as free persons of color
    among the Red Bones of Louisiana (DeMaree, 1992). White (1988) feels
    they possibly descend from Saponi Indians located next to the William
    Eaton plantation in Granville County, North Carolina in the 1750s. DeMaree
    (1992) traces the Bass family to Norfolk County, Virginia.
