Of the five sisters, Jane, Mary, Lizzie (Elizabeth), Margaret and Ann, I only met Auntie Ann once that I can remember. I knew Auntie Lizzie quite well as she lived in later life with my Father's cousin and we visited regularly. All these people are long gone and I have no knowledge of later family except for information gleaned from a relative who lived in Auckland at the time but had only met once as a child. And she would probably be deceased by now, being of my Father's generation. If I remember correctly they were scattered throughout New Zealand and some overseas in America I believe. But they would be further down the DNA ladder wouldn't they?
James Lowther Mason was my Grandfather's brother and my Father's uncle. Two generations removed. I don't know if there are any male line out there of our generation. I have neither the money nor the inclination to go on a possible wild goose chase trying to find any such person.
I feel disinclined to take this correspondence any further as it is unsettling me. I will content myself with what I learned of Great Uncle James when doing my family research back in the 90s.
