| 1209 | Biographical History of Grant County, Indiana Eli Moore Eli Moore was born August 22, 1847, on the farm in Wabash county, Ind., which has ever since been his home. His parents were Thomas and Mildred (Scott) Moore, deceased, former prominent residents of Liberty township, which was the scene of their activity for many years. Thomas Moore was born in North Carolina in 1800 and followed husbandry in his native state until a young man, when he came to Rush county, Ind., where he was married. In 1835 he came by ox team to Wabash county and there entered eighty acres of wild land from the government. This land is now the home of Eli Moore and the old parchment deed which is in possession of Mr. and Mrs. Moore bears date of march 20, 1837. it was customary for neighbors for miles around to help in house and barn-raising, and it was no uncommon thing for the deer to browse on the tender twigs after the trees were felled. Wolves were a menace to the farmer, causing no end of trouble, and it was a wise man who provided a pent to shelter his sheep, those not protected in this manner being carried off in large numbers by these greedy and troublesome pests. He was a man of lofty ideals and endeavored to live up to those ideals even in the most ordinary affairs of life. He was a Whig until the advent of the Republican party, when he joined forces with that body. A devout Baptist, he attended services for years at Antioch in the house of worchhip0 which his own contributions have aided in building, and from which he was buried September 15, 1861. His wife was born in 1811, in the state of Tennessee, and passed away in 1884. She was a member of the Christian church and instilled in the hears of her children the precepts of right living. She was the mother of there sons and six daughters, five of whom her. They are as follows: Nancy A., wife of Uriah Bunsworth, a mechanic of Huntington, this state; Melissa, wife of John Pearson, a farmer of Grant county; Levi, who is retired and lives in Marion; Sarah, wife of William Coomler, who resided in Jonesboro, where he is interested in life insurance and also serves as assessor of Grant county; and Eli. Eli Moore was reared and educated in Wabash county, attending the common schools and there learning the rudiments of the English language. He did not have far to go to reach the school, as the building stood on his father?s farm. At the age of thirteen death deprived him of a wise counsellor and loving father, a loss that was in part retrieved by the care and judgment of a devoted mother, with whom he lived as long as her life was spared and to whose wants it was his blessed privilege to minister. He has continued to reside on the old homestead, buying out the interest of the other heirs and has added many excellent improvements; the commodious house and barns are of his building, as are most of the improvements seen on the place. Twelve hundred rods of tile have placed it on a par with the best land in the township and he is prosperous because progressive in his methods. May 30, 1869, he was joined in marriage with Miss Elizabeth Houser, a daughter of Samuel and Catherine (Keith) Houser, and was born in Wabash county, September 17, 1849. She was one of thirteen children, five of whom are living at this time. Three of the brothers live in Topeka, Kan., where they are engaged in the mercantile business, and Nancy is the wife of George Rinker and lives in Marion. Mrs. Moore was little more than a baby when her father died, being but nine years old, and five years later the mother was also taken. Six children have been born to bless this worthy couple and five of them are living to reflect credit upon the parents who have reared them to honorable lives. Jennie is the wife of Abraham L. Garrison, of Liberty township, and the mother of two bright boys, Floyd and Cecil; Melissa married Edward Renniker, a farmer of Liberty township, and his one child, Beulah; William E. resided at home and is one of the successful and efficient teacher of this township; Charles L. has been recently graduated from the Lafontaine high school; and Riley E. from the common schools. Mr. Moore has supported the Republican ticket since casting his first vote. He and his wife are members and active works in the Boundary Line Christian church and are citizens whose example exerts a beneficent influence on the lives of those about them. | Moore, Thomas (I2880)

| 1222 | Boston Globe, Massachusetts, 20 March 2023 Henry Bass Jr. BASS, Henry Jr. A economist and filmmaker, died March 17, at home in Belmont, at the age of 88, from normal pressure hydrocephalus. Henry lived bravely, always up for a new challenge. He was born in Nashville, Tennessee, the son of Henry Leonidas Bass, Sr. and Louisa Roseborough, and raised in nearby Hopkinsville, Kentucky, spoiled not only by his parents and grandmother but by three older half-sisters. At the age of 15, with his father dying of emphysema, Henry was sent to boarding school at Sewanee Military Academy in Sewanee, Tennessee, where he was a member of the debate team. Sewanee was a compromise. His father wanted him to go to Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, where he had spent a happy year decades earlier. His mother didn't want him to go so far away. She had been born in Sewanee and agreed to that. Henry applied to Williams College without visiting it. One of his sisters had seen a magazine photo showing students in class at Williams College wearing flannel shirts rather than the era's usual jackets and ties. "Here's a place for my "brother," she remarked. The admissions director agreed and recruited Henry, a debater at Sewanee, for the Williams debate team. Henry majored in political economy, and the Williams economics department arranged for him to go to graduate school at Harvard. He began teaching economics at Northeastern and Boston universities while still in graduate school; they paid substantially more than Harvard, he noted. A grant from the Scientific American for his PhD thesis sent him traveling the country negotiating with major companies to survey high-level managers. While writing it, he taught at Hunter College in New York. His marketing course was particularly popular, and the department chairman suggested that he chair a marketing sub-department. But the Vietnam War was killing tens of thousands of people a year, and Henry was involved in the New York peace movement. He decided that, as a southerner, he should bring the peace movement to his native region. With his wife, Sue, whom he married in 1966, he moved to Atlanta in March 1967 to create the Atlanta Workshop in Nonviolence. He counseled hundreds of young men about dealing with the draft and conscientious objection in the military. After his return to the Boston area, Henry was recruited by an old friend, Peter Schlaifer, to help finish a film on labor discontent at General Motors' Lordstown, Ohio, plant. It became Loose Bolts?, released in 1973. Ten other educational films on labor history and labor management followed. They were widely praised for their objectivity and for combining archival footage and modern interviews to let students feel what it was like to work in a steel or auto plant. Tom Kochan of MIT's Sloan School of Management commented about Henry's 2006 steel industry film, Rustbelt Phoenix, "Telling the story in the words of the people who made it happen brings to life the personal drama and the enormous stakes for the families and investors in ways that no words on paper could ever do." Henry also loved music, both classical and bluegrass. He was on the board of the new music group Boston Musica Viva for nearly 30 years. Henry leaves his wife of 56 years, Sue; and numerous nieces, nephews, and grand-nieces and nephews. Sue would like to thank his aides, and particularl, Eden Ghebremedhin, Hasifah Namugenyi, and the irrepressible Catherine Rogers. Memorial gifts may be directed to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, 799 Washington Street, P.O. Box 807, Harpers Ferry, WV 25425, or Boston Health Care for the Homeless, 780 Albany St., Boston, MA 02118. No funeral is planned. Henry used to cite Royal Little, founder of Textron, who said in his memoirs, "[I] hope my friends will just think I've taken a long trip.'

One of his proudest accomplishments was serving in the U.S. Army from 1969 until 1973. Mike served in the Army Airborne Infantry in the 1st Battalion/7th Cavalry. As a paratrooper during the Vietnam War he earned 2 Purple Hearts. Mike returned in 1973, with the Bronze Star, three Air Medals, the Combat Infantry Badge, and the Republic of Vietnam Gallantry Cross given for valor and heroic conduct while in combat with the enemy. After returning from Vietnam, Mike began his career with the U.S. Postal Service in New Orleans, LA. He eventually transferred to the Biloxi Post Office where he would go on to serve for 35 years as a letter carrier. He enjoyed getting to know the people on his various routes and many have commented that he was a ?bright spot? in their day.

One of Mike?s greatest accomplishments happened after a tropical storm clean up in the early 1990s. While working in the yard Mike put two old rakes together offsetting the tines and that made his raking at the time go quicker. He worked tirelessly for many years with his business partner in Japan to create and patent ?The Perfect Rake.? He was able to able to secure a patent for the rake and was able to make 5,000 rakes which were sold locally.

Mike proudly played Little League baseball in Biloxi and in 1961 the All-Star Biloxi team made it to the Norfolk, VA, regional Little League tournament. Even though they did not make it all the way to the Little League World Series finals in Williamsport, PA, Mike was always proud they got that far and that they met New York Yankee Star Joe Dimaggio while there. The family would like to especially thank the doctors, nurses, and staff of the Biloxi V.A. Hospital and the Community Living Center for the outstanding care and love that was given to Mike.

| 1244 | Brinkerhoff?s History of Marion County, Illinois James A. Rennie (Excerpt) The Irish element in America?s national life has contributed much to the country?s material prosperity, being felt as a potential force along industrical, commercial and agricultural lines, to say nothing of the important place it occupies in the arts and sciences and its influence in religious and educational circle, and in the domain of politics. A fine representative of this nationality is found in James A. Rennie, of Kinmundy township, a successful farmer and estimable citizen, who to know is to respect. In his veins flows the blood of a long line of Irish ancestors, and it was in the fair Emerald Isle that he first saw the light of day. Since coming to the New World he has prospered, and while he stil loves his native land he is loyal to American institutions. James A. Rennie was born in Armagh, Ireland, September 20, 1838, the son of Thomas and Mary (Stratton) Rennie, whose family consisted of three children, namely; William J., James A., and Samuel. Thomas Rennie came to America in 1847, and settled in Rhode Island, later going to Boston, then to Providence, where he received employment. He was a machinist. He later moved to Arkwright and Hope, where he did all the machine work for the factories. In the year 1850 the fanily moved to Perry county, Indiana, and was engaged to work in the cotton mills of Cannelton. William, the oldest son, put up the first spindle frames in the mill where they were employes. Our subject received a fairly good common school education. He was married in 1866 to Mariah E. Falkumbarra, of Perry county, Indiana. She was the daughter of Littleton Falkunbarra, who married a Miss Shoemaker. To this union one child was born, Mariah E., who married M.F. Elgan, of Marion county. Ou subjest?s second wife was Eliza E. Bass, daughter of Jacob and Nancy (Davis) Bass, and to his marriage three children were born, namely: Rosa, whose date of birth occurred in 1876; Gertrude R., who was born January 10, 1882, and who died October 2, 1898; Oscar R., who was born February 1, 890. Rosa married Charles Hannah, superintendent of the Salem box factory. Our subject?s war record is one that merits praise. He enlisted as a private, but was such a gallant soldier that he became sergreant and served as such throughout the war. He was in seventeen battles and skirmishes. He was in the Thirty-fifth Indiana Volunteer Infantry under John C. Walker of United States bond fame. He also served under Dick Ryan, of Indianapolis, Mayor Bolt, Colonel Mullen, son of Adjutant Mullin, who was shot at Dobbins Ford, Tennessee, under Van Cleve?s division. Thomas Rennie and his sons, William and James, all enlisted in the Union army from Perry county, Indiana, in 1861, for three years? time. William was wounded in a skirmish during the first of the war, having had his lim broken in two places. Thomas R., father of our subject, died from exposure in 1872. He reached an old age. Lieutenant Canoe states that James A. Rennie was as brave a man as ever followed the American flag. Mr. Rennis is the owner of a very valuable and highly productive farm of forty acres in section 30, township 4, range 3. He is a good farmer and makes his place yield a comfortable income from year to year. His fields are well tilled and in excellent condition. He has a comfortable and substantial residence and a good barn, and other out buildings. Our subject has been interested in educational movements and has very ably filled the office of School Director for the past twenty-five years. Politically he is a stanch Republican, and he cast his first vote for Abraham Lincoln, and has voted for every Republican President since then. He draws twelve dollars per month pension, under the affidavit of his discharge. In religion he is a Universalist, and adheres closely to this beautiful faith, however, he has never made prefession of any religious faith. He practices the motto, ?Do right all men, because it is right,? this being he substance of his creed. He was seventy years old September 30, 1908, and is hale and hearty enjoying in a large measure life , his home and many friends. He is a great reader of both papers and books, and is much interested in the history of this country. | Rennie, James A. (I48061)

He was the last of six adult children of the family of the Rev. Job G. Bass. Young Mr. Bass served his country during the late Civil War, holding a position as a non commissioned officer in Company F., First new York Lincoln Cavalry. His circle of acquaintances in this city was a large one, and they, with the many friends of his father, will be pained to learn of his sudden death. Although Mr. Bass died and was buried among strangers, the officers of the Y.M.C.A. of Denver showed him great courtesy, ministering to him in his short illness, and carefully carrying out his father?s wishes respecting his burial in that city. Mr. Bass was 40 years of age, and unmarried. It was only in march last that another son of the Rev. Mr. Bass passed away, and the sympathy of all Christian people goes out to him in this added bereavement. Mighty Casey Baseball John Bass Born in Charleston, South Carolina to Jacob (Job) Gardiner Bass and Ellen Rachel (Ruth) Garden a preacher and his wife, John Elias Bass eventually moved with his family to Brooklyn where he learned the game as it was growing in his city after the Great War for Slavery.

After playing with the Unions of Morrisania, Bass played shortstop for the Cleveland Forest City team in that first National Association season of 1871, He would lead the Association in triples (10 ? in just 22 games) and tied for the team league in homers with 3 (the league leader had four). The next year he was with his hometown Brooklyn Atlantics but only for a couple of games while Jack McDonald ran afoul of the team leadership. He played with amateur clubs for the next several years, but he got one last ?major league? game as an emergency player for the Hartfords of Brooklyn against Louisville in 1877. Tom York came up ill; Bass suited up and played in left field getting a hit in four tries and scoring a run. Bass worked as a clerk but appeared to be active in some of the same events that his father was involved with ? namely the church and military reunions ? until he fell ill with tuberculosis. He left Brooklyn for Denver in hopes of staving off the disease, but that failed and within weeks he had died there. Depending on which source you believe, he was anywhere from 37 to 40 years old. His FindaGrave site and Baseball-Reference.com page says he died on September 25, 1888 in Denver, but the obituary in the Brooklyn Eagle says he died on Monday, September 24, 1888. | Bass, John Elias (I2616)

| 1249 | Broomhead Funeral Home Carl Lewis Bassett Dec 12, 1946 ? May 3, 2026 Carl Lewis Bassett, born December 12, 1946, passed away on May 3, 2026, leaving behind a life rich in love, laughter, faith, and connection. How can one possibly capture the impact this brother, husband, grandfather, and great-grandfather had on the world and on the lives of those fortunate enough to know him? Carl was the kind of person who never met a stranger. A gifted conversationalist and master storyteller, he had a way of making everyone feel welcome and valued, whether you had known him for decades or had just met him. He was quick with a joke (especially a classic "dad" joke), always ready to break into song, and carried a warmth that naturally drew people in. In high school, Carl's love of motorcycles led to one of the most meaningful moments of his life. After a crash, he was interviewed for the school paper on how not to ride a motorcycle by a classmate named Linda. That interview turned into a lifelong love story, and Linda became his beloved wife. Carl began his career working alongside his father as a general contractor, where he learned the value of hard work and craftsmanship. He later transitioned into a career as a landman in the oil industry, where his communication skills and thoughtful approach made him especially effective. He loved working with both his hands and his mind?building, fixing, and solving problems with care and precision. Despite a demanding travel schedule, Carl always made time for his children his highest priority) and while, like Mary Poppins, he was "practically perfect in every way," he did inherit one notable habit from his father - a deep love of fishing. Paired with his gift for storytelling, this resulted in some truly memorable tales. Whether casting a line, sharing stories from the past, or singing with those around him, Carl found joy in life's simple, meaningful moments. Above all, Carl was a devoted husband and father. He and Linda built a life centered on family, raising four daughters and two sons: Sandy, Janelle, Karla, Spencer, Tiffani, and Jay. His children remember him as loving, gentle, and compassionate, as well as steadfast, protective, and strong in his beliefs. He was both fun-loving and disciplined - a man who could be playful and humorous, yet also firm, reliable, and deeply principled. Carl was a man of faith and an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served faithfully in many capacities, including in multiple temples. His spirituality was a guiding force in his life, reflected in the way he treated others?with kindness, thoughtfulness, and quiet strength. Those who knew Carl remember a man who showed up for others, who lived with integrity, and who left a lasting impression on everyone he met. To his family, he was not only dependable and strong, but truly heroic. Carl's legacy lives on in the family he cherished, the lives he touched, and the love he gave so freely. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered. A visitation will be held Wednesday, May 6, 2026, from 7:00-9:00 PM at Broomhead Funeral Home located at 12600 S 2200 W- Riverton, Utah. A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, June 27, 2026, at 6:30PM - 8:30PM. 3554 W. Harvestwood Lane, Riverton, UT 84065. | Bassett, Carl Lewis (I8655)
