Individual Details
Maria L. A. MASON
(Abt 13 Sep 1855 - 30 Apr 1956)
I was a baptismal date for Maria of 15 September 1856 by Hudson researcher Bill Hudson of Florida. However, a baptism record has been located on the Irish Genealogy website, www.irishgenealogy.ie, for a Mary (Maria and Mary are synonymous) Mason whose father's name was John and who was baptised in Dingle on 6 April 1856. According to the baptism record, Mary's mother's name was Elizabeth (the last name is not provided).
In 1921, four years after Robert's death, Maria moved from Tralee to Dublin with her daughter Roberta and possibly her other daughter, Saidie, leaving Gortmore House, the Hudson family home in Tralee, to the Bon Secours order which set up a hospital on the property. After a couple of years in Dublin Maria bought 'Thorndene' at 87 Monkstown Road in Monkstown where she lived for the rest of her life. I am told that Maria was 101 years of age when she died in 1956 (although her age in the 1911 census is given as 48, about eight years younger than she would have been if she had been born about 1856).
