His childrens 1800 and 1805 baptisms give his place of origin which was Dent as a lot of Durham PRs were quite informative by listing parents place of births. He died after 1811 but I cannot find his burial as there was a Willm Mason born in 1747 in Dent.

Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 772 Send Message	Hi Hayley, its Winton (nowhere near as posh as Monton!!) Have you been to West One, on the grounds of the old Ladywell?? That is quite nice. I have heard of The Talk of The North - now I believe that WAS rough!! Dianne, my mum and dad live in the street just next to Pyramid Court - Murray Street. Pyramid Court is just directly in front of their back garden. Small world!! I don't think I am convinced with the posh Cheshire bit, I had a friend who lived in Winsford!!!! Best wishes Carol x

Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 1,401 Send Message	JOKE I might be mentioning a distant cousin here regarding my Irish Norse ancestry. Have a guess and I will say if you are right? How do you get a one armed Irishman out of a tree?
