# Name: Thomas Bass , Dea. 1
# Sex: M
# Birth: BEF MAY 1635 in Roxbury, Suffolk, Ma
# Death: 8 JAN 1719/20 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Ma
# Note:

He was made freeman May 14,1656.

Thomas Bass & wife Sarah were admitted from the church in Medfield Sep.10,1676. Susanna wife of Thomas Bass admitted from Weymouth church May 30,1686. No settlement of his estate as only one son survived him. He was a weaver.

Children of Dea. Thomas & Sarah born, first two probably at present Natick (Sherborn) where Nicholas Wood estate was located, but recorded at Medfield the nearest town, then rest born at Braintree.

Thayer Gen. (1874) gives a Sarah Bass who m. Josiah Thayer of Mendon. This is unproven and very doubtful. The Haviland Mass. at R.I. Hist. Soc. calls Sarah a dau. of Thomas Bass, and is followed by the Bass Gen. (1940). There is no evidence for it.

His land near the meeting house is mentioned in 1679, and in 1694 he was paid for ringing the bell at the meeting house. He was elected surveyor of highways "for the town" 1694 and in 1697 on a committee to seat or place persons at the meeting house. He was elected deacon sometime after 1679, date not known.

On Feb.22,1711/12 John Bass & wife Elizabeth of Windham, Conn. sold to John Beale 1 acre, dwelling & barn, now in the occupation of Dea. Thomas Bass, father of said John Bass, with orchard & garden, N. & E. on the country road, W. on the "town buring place" , S. on land of Benjamin Savil & 2 acres etc. (S.D. 84-150).

This land occupied by Dea. Thomas Bass after his son removed to Conn. was at present corner of Hancock & Granite Sts., Quincy. After it's sale by his son John, Thomas & Susanna evidently went to Weymouth where she had lived before marrying him and they died there. Hence no need for a settlement of his estate.

S.D. 19-423: Thomas Bass, weaver, sold to Benjamin Tompson 1 1/2 a. N. on town brook, E. on James Brackett, S. on town land adjoining the old school house, W. on the road. Jul.18,1700.
Tompson reconveyed Nov.14,1700 to Benjamin Webb, S.D. 20-489.

Thomas Bass probably lived in Sherborn on the 40 acres granted to his father by the General Court Apr.26,1668 "in the right of Richard Stacy" lying north of Charles River, "near Nicholas Wood farm & Mr. Hull's".
