We have compared it and and everyone here is in agreement.

Hello Johngirl,

Well there something I never expected, someone to come along with the same family, you are right Henry Robert was indeed the brother of my Emeline, Emeline was my 2nd great grandmother and they were all born at Sorell, I have all the info on her and her sisters but still searching for their brother.

Emeline did marry Charles Douglas and there is a daughter Susan born to them in Longford, Tasmania but I have no idea where Charles went to either did they separate or did he die? she ended up back in Sorell and having a family with Henry, she died at the tender age of 36.

So the info on both John Masons you have  given me fit with his date of birth, therefore either one of them could be him, so where do I go next? other family members   have no idea on what happened to him, I am hoping he is the one who married Matilda Fitzallen, I will keep on keeping on.

Thank you for taking the time to answer.

Hello Jenn,

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, I did find the name John Mason in the orpahnge list along with those of his sisters, I found all the details for the sisters but nothing for John.

So I was at a lost as what might happended to him.

The sisters married and stayed in Tasmania until the later years when two of them went to Melbourne and they both spent their last days there.

Hello everyone,

My research has hit a brick wall, I am seeking John William MASON, he was born in Sorell, Tasmania 25 October 1869 to Henry MASON & Emeline DOUGLAS (neeWIGGINS). (cannot find a marriage for them so I am under the impression they did not wed)

John had 4 sisters that I know of and they were all placed in an orphanage after the premature death of their mother, the youngset being just 2 years their father was unable to care for them.

I have found  the sisters and what happened to them when they were released from the orphanage but dear old John is being illusive, where did he go? did they change his name or did he go to another state in Australia,

I would appreciate any help with what may have happened to him.

Thank You

Cienna
