Is there any way i which I could find out if any of myNewcastle/South Shields families were Masonic? My father, long deceased was NOT a Mason and it was not spoken of as a "family" thing  but I am curious  Most relevant names are THOMPSON and SNOWDEN, prior to 1850
  Thank you for your time  Mawaltho

Hello mawaltho,

Don't know about Snowdon and Thompson, but Simpson was.
