Thanks Samspade, I appreciate that fact but I am impatient and, even worse, they are my sister-in-law's family!

Thanks LD, that matches them nicely. This would seem to confirm that Frances was the wife in 1865 but what is her maiden name??

I have just looked hard at the FreeBMD image for Joseph's marriage and although it is transcribed Dec Qtr 1865 Stamford 7a 660 it looks to me as though the final 0 has a tail, i.e. 9. Unfortunately nothing comes up for 7a 669!
Has anybody any other source of marriage look up please?

Frances Report 5 Dec 2008 10:04

I have the 1881 & 1891 census for the Mason family which has father Joseph Mason 1843 with wife Frances 1848 and children
John 1866
George 1868
William 1871 + others

There is a marriage in FreeBMD for Joseph in 1865 but no wife. If it is Frances she would only be 16/17.

Does the 1871 census shed any light on this please?

Many thanks,
Frances
