The MASON RECORDS book is a study of persons and families with the surname MASON.  It is about several Mason families in early USA, England, France, etc.. 

 

The information in my book was taken from more than 100 authentic and authoritative genealogy sources; Passenger and Immigration records, Information copied from the National Archives, Wash. D.C. from their original records, DAR records copied from member application records at the DAR national headquarters in Wash. D.C., information on the origin and meaning of the name Mason, history books and major genealogy books (most now out of print and hard to find), parish/church records and other major sources containing information about Mason families.  As you can see there are no telephone lists in our books, and none of the information was taken from the Internet.  It is all authentic genealogical information.

 

My book was compiled after we traveled on our many genealogy research trips to major genealogy depositories in different areas.  The sources are given along with the actual information from the sources.

 

My book has many different kinds of records, some records give generations of family members with their births, marriages, deaths, etc.; names and relationships that are needed to fill in family charts and family trees.  It also gives connections to and information about some of their Related Families. 

 

My book gives you illustrations of and descriptions of Mason coats of arms and it tells you who was entitled to use them and family information about these people.  It gives you some of the variant spellings of the surname Mason and gives you information about some persons who used these spellings.

 

There is information about the origin of the surname Mason in my book. 

 

In my book you will have all this valuable and interesting information compiled into one book, all ready for you to read, enjoy and use.  To travel and do this research yourself would cost you hundreds of dollars and many hours of time and frustration.

 

This is an excellent book.  It is a valuable research tool for anyone interested in knowing more about Mason families and the Mason surname.  It is often more productive and more interesting if you go beyond your immediate family tree.

 

My book will give you 256 pages, size 8 ½ X 11, of excellent authentic genealogical information.  We did our research in major genealogical records and depositories some of which are listed above. 

 

(See below for  an example of the type of  information that is in my book.)            

(See below for Other Families with information in my book.)

Also many other things can be found in this book.
