I am searching for my ancestors of my BASS and BRWON family. The following is what I have found so far. I don't know when my BASS family arrived in IN but it must have been before 1818. Anything that rings a bell would be GREATLY appreciated. 1. James W. BASS Capt. C.S.A. Born About 1818 in IN. Occupation Farmer. Residence Knox >Pike Co, IN >Dade Co, MO in 1860> Cheneyville, Rapides Pa, LA in 1870 He married Angeline BROWN, 4 Apr 1841 in Knox Co., IN. Born About 1818 in Prob Vincennes, Knox Co., IN or PA. Residence Burrough, Vincennes, Knox & Pike Co., IN. They had the following children: 2 i. David Webb BASS C.S.A. ii. Alferd BASS CSA? Born About 1844 in IN. Residence Pike Co., IN There are only 5 Bass families in Indiana in 1820 Howel Bass in Gibson Co., Chatharine and William in Knox, and Arthur and Reuben in Washington Co. Only Chatharine and Howel have a son under age 10. Is Chatharine the Catharine WRIGHT living with James in the 1850 and 1860 census - so would be his mother who remarried a WRIGHT??? Angeline Brown sold a plat of land in the Burroughs of Vincennes, Knox Co., IN on 28 Sep 1839 to John Moore for $1,800 the payments being made in installments of $500 each over a three year period plus interest for a total of $2,000. The final deed and transfer was made on 8 Apr 1842. Angeline signed and sealed the documents of record. She is referred to as Miss Angeline Brown suggesting that she is unmarried. Probate records involving property of James W. and Angeline BASS appear to be perhaps a dour deeded to BASS by Samuel and Charlotte COLEMAN. Other names mentioned in the document (very difficult to read this copy) are David WILSON and John PANBROOK. Both James and Angeline signed the document and was witnessed by Small BASS J.P. of Petersburg, IN. Small is interesting as he appears on the IN Census beginning in 1830 Pike Co., Knox Co. in 1840 and back in Pike in 1850. Is Small BASS related to the John SMALL of Knox Co. (to become IN) who was chosen member of a lower house assembly in preparation of claiming the Northwest Territory? It was this assembly that put forth William Henry HARRISON as the first delegate to Congress from the Northwest Territory in 1799. And is Small BASS related to James W. and how??? James moved his family from Indiana sometime before 1860 as we find James W. with his two sons, David W. and Alfred, Catharine Wright age 85 and Isabella Bass age 25 in Dade Co., MO 1860 census. Where is Angeline? Catharine was living with them in 1850 in IN - who is she? The two census records are conflicting: age 67 in 1850 birthplace is listed as NC while in 1860 she is age 85 with birthplace TN. Where did Isabella come from? She is too old to be a daughter. Did James anticipate the outbreak of the Civil War and being a plantation owner, wanted to get South perhaps even with intentions to join up as we will see that the ink hadn't even gotten dry from the census when James is enlisting in the CSA. Angeline, a proven business woman, perhaps stayed behind to wrap up the estate with plans to join them later. Any help appreciated thanks becky Becky Bonner Email: rbonner@rex.uokhsc.edu Home of the *HARRISON* Repository WWW: http://www.uokhsc.edu/~rbonner OR http://rentsv1.uokhsc.edu/bbonner Data Managed by me and my mom Josephine Lindsay Bass (jbass@digital.net)
