Wiley C. Mason, son of William and Matilda (Lewis) Mason, married Mrs. Phetney Bragg on Tues. 18 Jan 1859. Their marriage announcement appeared in the Northern Standard on 22 Jan 1859.




8 Sept. 1860, Clarksville, Red River Co., TX, p. 121:

828 - 828
W.C. Mason  30 M Brickmason     $75 b. AL
Phitney 26 F  b. GA
Mary J. 5 F b.TX

Notation: The census makes the notation that W.C. and Phitney had married within the year. Is Mary J. a daughter of W.C.’s or Phitney’s by a previous marriage? Since Phitney had been married previously, Mary J. may be her daughter.

A Wiley C. Mason enlisted at Jefferson, TX on 27 Apr 1861. He gave his age as 33. He was discharged 31 Oct 1861 for disability.
