Do you know where Thomas and Mary were born?  If not, you can search for them on the 1881 census free at http://www.familysearch.org - this will give us a birthplace to look for on earlier censuses.

I can see 2 possible Mary Masons with father Richard - one born Bury, and one born Tipton.  There are several possibilities for Thomas.

There is a Stringer family in Normanton on the 1881 census, but I'm not sure if it's the right one, as there are several children born earlier than 1876.
