I'm researching the Bass, Rutherford, and Crawford families in Rutherford and surrounding counties. John James Bass, born about 1761 in Virginia, probably Brunswick County, died 3 Mar 1826 in Rutherford County, Tennessee. He married Temperance Jordan and they had seven children: Thomas, Benjamin Jordan, Temperance Weston, Nancy S., James A., Mary Clarke, and Hartwell. As far as I can tell, all the Bass families in the area at the time are related. Henry Rutherford, born 17 Aug 1762 in Rowan County, North Carolina, died 20 May 1847 in Lauderdale County, Tennessee. He was the son of Griffith Rutherford and Mary Elizabeth Graham. His daughter, Elizabeth Rutherford, married John Crawford. Heather __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
