Biography

Needs help, will receive it as soon as is possible. The pdf file in the Bio is not something I've seen before.

Charles was born in 1890 to William Bass and Minerva née Mason Bass. He married Ora Ellen Hicks in 1909 in Douglas, Missouri [the marriages need to be looked into, that seems very fast to be married and divorced, then meet and court another lady and marry her. Sorry, not supposed to be looking at screens until my eyes heal (hope, hope, hope)

Charles wed again in 1912, to Laurinda Johnston, and they had seven children together, and were married until his passing on 7 August 1954. Charles was laid to rest at the Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery in (is this also definitely Joplin, Jasper, Missouri?)
