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.
