Nathaniel C. Mason was born between 1799-1800 in Windsor, Sussex County, Virginia. (Both: Find-A-Grave and his death record have that he was born in 1799 but both could be estimated). On October 17, 1830 he married Mary Mitchell
(1813–1867) in Morgan, Ohio.[1](Note: the marriage record has Mary H. Minshall; but she is linked on find-a-grave as Mary Mitchell). He is listed with Mary on both: the 1850 Census[2] and the 1860 Census[3] in Truro Township, Franklin, Ohio. The following children are listed on the census reports but only two are linked on find-a-grave:
1. Columbus B. Mason
2. Armisted T. Mason (linked on find-a-grave)
3. Sarah Mason
4. Nathaniel N. Mason
5. Mary V. Mason
6. Catherine "Kate" Mason
7. John R. Mason
8. Cornelia Susannah Mason (linked on find-a-grave)
9. Laura Mason
His wife passed, Mary; away in 1867. It is possible that he was married to Catherine after that but there are no sources available for a second marriage at this time. Nathaniel passed away in September of 1875 at the age of 76 in Reynoldsburg, Truro Township, Franklin, Ohio.[4] He is buried in the Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery in Reynoldsburg, Franklin County, Ohio.[5]
