Thank you Sat Nav, thats helpful, I didn't know about Albert Edward Mason. It is definitely the right family though, so maybe I can enjoy tracing Albert E now. Thanks for finding me another family member.

How do I find my fathers aunt, Martha Mary Mason dob 6.12.1891. She had a brother George Louis Mason dob 10.12.1893. I think their mother must have died before the 1901 census because Martha was then in All Saints Orphanage Marylebone, and by 1911 I can't find any trace of her. Her brother George L Mason was in the Military at Aldershot. Does anyone know if records were kept of where children were going when they left the orphanage. Maybe into service or marrying quite young, I have tried to think of everything but can't find any trace of Martha after 1901. Any help would be appreciated.
