Henry Frederick Bass (1885) married in December 1907 to Mary Ann Connor who was born in Whitechapel in 1888 to parents Michael and Margaret Connor.

Frederick Henry Bass the father of Hen Fred married Catherine Lydia Court. They are on the 1891 census but he had died before the 1901 was taken. She re-married to a Henry Badder.

Hello again. I am still trying to find out who John J O'Keefe was - you remember he described himself as a nephew when he informed my uncle's death in 1959 (Frederick Henry or Henry Frederick Bass born 1885).
There is a John J O'Keefe showing as being born in 1927 in Stepney with mother's maiden name BRAY. There is a John J O'Keefe death in Stepney on 11 July 1966 aged 52 so this could also be him but the wrong age for the Bray baby in 1927. I have done tree searches but wonder if anybody has any suggestions.
Thanks for reading this ongoing saga.
regards
Jennifer :-(

I am beginning to think that he was not actually a nephew and just described himself as that to the death registrar. Can't see any marriages to anyone in the Bass family. Henry Frederick was born in 1885 to parents Frederick Henry Bass and Catherine Lydia nee Court. Thanks for your help :-)

If he was a nephew by marriage, the names would not be interlinked

This puts him born c1886 but I don't see a likely birth.

A nephew would be the son of Fredericks's brother/sister or the son his wife's brother/sister.

You need to give us more details.

Hi Jennifer

Does anyone know where John went after he lived in Philip Road SE15 in 1959? He was a nephew of Frederick Henry Bass and lived at the same address until Frederick Henry Bass died in 1959. I am trying to find how the name O'Keefe came into the Bass family.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
