Parent connection based on current research on Familysearch.org. Please add your research!

Connection to James Bass (1721-1763) is the current research direction but the wife is questionable due to their 8 year age gap 1713 and 1721. [2]

Connection to Thomas Bass (1722-1786) is most likely in error. [3] [4]
