Capt. John Basse, Sr. - Question about Peregrine Basye

Hello. You and I share 5.5 cM. It's not a huge match but it's something. I've not seen that spelling before. Very unique. Do you have an asteric next to the name when you search? That ques the soundex... it helps a little.
Also, might check wikitree. Just because I haven't seen it doesn't mean it's incorrect. If they say it doesn't exist, i would ask about the process behind declaring the name non-existent.

I am a Bass(e) descendant as well.

I couldn't find any documentation for

Peregrine Basse by Googling except this one source reference:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Basye-22

Sources
↑ Parish Register Abstract, FindMyPast.com, s/o Peregrine

Which is on the Wiki page for his son Walter, so he had to exist if there is a Parish record of Walter being Peregrine's son.

've been disappointed in the past joining surname FB groups. They always seem to want to say the line I'm researching isn't related and ignore sources I provide to show otherwise and even ignoring DNA cousin matches. I'm sure they're not all like that, but I left all the ones I had joined because they wanted to be like their line was the only valid one or something.

So I added that reference to Peregrine's About section.

He shows on Geni as my 21st ggf but he's not really because my ancestor Hannah (Love) Austin / Moore was adopted into the family of Elisha (Bayse) Love and isn't really a Bayse descendant. I wish that connection would be corrected so it doesn't make it look like I have ancestors that I don't. have up those lines.

It was an actual adoption, so it needs to stay, right?

As far as I know it was an actual adoption so nothing needs to be removed. I just don't know why it's showing me blood-descended from both the adopted and biological lines when it should only show that on the biological line. I have seen other profiles with both adopted / foster / step and biological lines but I don't recall them showing the non-biological lines as my directs.

It shouldn't have been necessary to remove the adopted parents. That's why those options are on there. Seems like an issue on Geni's side that isn't trekking the pathway correctly for some reason. But, yes, removing the adopted parents did fix the issue with both sets of parents showing as my direct, and someone else posted it was showing that way for them too. So thanks.

That said, it would be nice if Geni would fix the underlying issue so both adopted and biological parents could actually be shown without causing it to look like both sets are a person's direct ancestors.

Listed in the About section as to the story.

Yep, that's how I found out about the adoptive line info. Hopefully Geni will get the glitch fixed.

That's strange, when I posted my link it got 'lost' chronologically out of order in the thread. That's how I ended up posting it twice. Smh.

Not saying this is it, just thought it an interesting parallel (William Bassett, not Bass or Bayse, deeded property to his two "sons", one of whom was named Peregrine White; the other shared his surname):

"A Deed appointed to bee Recorded Know all men by these p r sents that I Willam Bassett sen'r of Duxburrow now liveing Att Bridgwater for Divers Reasons and Considerations Doe freely Surrender and give up all my proper and whole Interest in my landes lying being and Scitt- uatt upon the south River with all the Emunities and privilidges belonging therunto both uplands and meddow lands unto my two sonnes there liveing viz Perigrine White and Nathaniell Bassett..."

(Peregrine or Perigrine was a fairly common 17th century first name.)

The information from that group is not as reliable as it use to be.
I am not familiar with the name Peregrine The spelling of the last name Bayse is probably incorrect. The y might be mistaken for the symbol that was used for the double s which resembles a y , so the name could be Basse.. The name Bays has been confused with Bass or Basse, but as far as I know, Bays was never a spelling for Bass.. If you haven't already , try searching with different spellings.

The time stamp is wrong too. Right now, it is actually 7:42

I knew it would start working right when I did that last post, just because I said it wasn't working. But the three posts above, at 6:57 and 6:58 -- Time stampst are off by nearly an hour. I've never seen that happen before.

Erica Howton with regard to Perigrine White connected to William Bassett, Sr. -- I suspect he may have actually been a son-in-law, married to his unnamed daughter, rather than an "adoption".

For some reason I can't explain, Bass is sometimes mixed up with Bassett by some genealogists. I really don't understand why it happens. But I have both surnames, in separate areas of my family tree. I'm blood related to some Florida/South Carolina Bassetts. In-law to some Florida/Georgia/North Carolina Basses.

I'm not so sure Bayse and Bass are really the same thing, either, although some genealogists assume for whatever reason that they are.

But in that profile you reference, he is correctly (imo) married to a Bassett.
