Jeremiah Bass, Sr.

Notes:

• Jeremiah was not the son of Moses Bass. Jeremiah and Wright Bass were the sons of Edward Bass. They were beneficiaries of their uncle's estate.
• Jeremiah Bass Jr. died 1808 in Mississippi. This date is often mistakenly used for Jeremiah Sr. The location and date for Jeremiah Sr.'s death are reportedly unknown.
• However, some researchers believe Jeremiah Sr. and Jr. were the same man.

------------------------------------

The estate settlement of Moses Bass mentions his COUSINS (e.g., family members who were not children), Jeremiah and Wright Bass, and also Mourning, Sarah, Elizabeth, and Ann Going, children of Jacob Going [South Carolina DB S-5:283, 284].

Furthermore, Wright Bass made a statement in court that Moses had "no issue."

Whereas I, the within named RIGHT BASS, am the eldest son of EDWARD BASS deceased, who was eldest brother of the within named Testator MOSES BASS, which said MOSES BASS DEPARTED THIS LIFE WITHOUT ISSUE, whereby I, said RIGHT BASS became his heir at law, and I am willing that all the several devises & bequests in the said will should have full effect, for the memory of my deceased UNCLE MOSES BASS and for the several devisees in the within will, and five shillings, I confirm all the devises, legacies and bequests, 9 Nov 1785. Right Bass (LS), Wit: Chas Cotesworth Pinckney, Wm Smith. Proved in Charleston Dist by the oath of Charles Cotesworth Pinckney 28 Jun 1786 before Dl. Mazyck, JP. Rec 28 Jun 1786. S-5, 283-284. (Holcomb, SC Deed Abstracts, 1783-1788, Bks I-5 thru Z-5, 1996. SML 975.7 Hol)

Jeremiah was given 100 acres granted to John Smith, and slaves: Peter, Fann, and Jack.

"Fann" may be the "Fanny" in his son's estate inventory in 1808; see profile for Jeremiah Jr.
