Mary Ann Beard Mason

Writes Her Own History

Springville, Utah

March 14, 1892 (?)

To My Dear Grandchildren,

Rollo and Leo Mason, sons of George and Philip Mason.

I am your grandmother and I am going to write a sheet of history of myself.

I was born in Newborn Parish, England, January 5, 1826. I lived there until 1849 then I came to America on board the Ship Denner Hare. I was married on the sea to George Mason on the 18th of February, landed in Newjsoure City of St Louis. Stayed there about fourteen months then went to Gonea and lived there some over a year then came to Utah and have lived there where all my children was born and raised in Springville except George the oldest. He was born in Iowa on the 21 of September 1850.

Philip James was born August 3, 1862. I was twenty three years old when I left my native place together with the Latter-day Saints. I am as firm a believer in the Gospel as I was then. We have had trials and hardships of help to make and beautify these valleys but it is now today a place and we have all the comforts that we desire. It is the best country in the world. This is the anniversary of the day the Relief Society was organized by the Prophet Joseph Smith.

Fifty years ago I was proposed to write an overall history of our descendants to be opened in fifty years which will be one hundred years since this Society was organized. There will be quite a change by that time. I hope my children will be among those that will lead honorable lives and among those that will be permitted to dwell with our Savior on this earth. They are all in the Church at this time and the capstone was laid on the Temple in Salt Lake City on the 6th of April this year. We are expecting to dedicate it on the 6th of April next year. My youngest daughter was married on the eighth of January the present year to Dyck Miller and is still living with me. I will put my photograph in this letter if you want to know of our genealogy I will try to leave it in charge of my youngest girl to be handed down for the benefit of all the descendants. She will be 25 years next October. You will see by the date that I commenced this on the 17 of March and finished it on the Seventeenth of April. The box will be closed today to be opened in fifty years. I do not know where I will be but think I will not be far away. I want this to be seen by any of my decedents that may be alive at that time as they all are the same to me but the one addressed to are the youngest and more likely to be living then.

George was born 21 September 1850

William Ezra was born 21 December 1852

Eliza Mason Fullmer January 7, 1855

Fredrick W. April 25, 1860

Philip James August 3, 1862

Rhonda May 1, 1865

Mary E. October 25, 1867

Charles Mason May 6, 1855

Will close and wish all my children all the good luck possible.

Signed-- Mary Ann Mason your grandmother.
