jasizer@bellsouth.net writes, in part: To my surprise, I found in the 1880 Sampson County, NC census living with my husband's William E. BASS (born 31 Aug 1834, died 21 Jan 1899) and Annah Celestia [Peterson] BASS a Sarah CHESNUTT, 74, MOTHER!!!! Can anyone out there help me figure this one out? Hi again, JoAnn: I will suggest also that Sarah CHESNUTT _might_ have been the mother of Annah Celestia Peterson BASS, so searching for a PETERSON/CHESNUTT marriage, and of course, marriage of a PETERSON/CHESNUTT, for example---just to cover all bases.
