Mason Family

Biographical notes:

The Mason Family was among the early settlers on the South Plains. They made their homes near Chilicothe and Post, Texas. Lester R. (L. R.) Mason worked at the Army Supply Base in Norfolk, Virginia during World War I. One of his descendents is Richard Mason, a former field representative of the Southwest Collection. Ruby Mason is the daughter of L. R. Mason and she kept the diaries of his experiences. Ruby has been compiling a history of the Mason Family with the help of her relatives.
