Hi Margaret, I think I may have found Nora on the 1911 census but listed as May Jones (I have several instances where ancestors used their middle name instead of their first name on census returns). It also links her with the Great Sutton Mason family. May Jones age 5 born Prenton is living at Green Bank Cottages, Great Sutton with her aunt and uncle Henry and Minnie Reynolds and their family. Minnie Reynolds was born c1871 at Great Sutton. Sure enough, the 1881 census shows a Minie Mason age 11 living with parents John and Jane Mason and sisters Martha and Fanny: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/X31W-XFJ On FreeBMD the names Henry Reynolds and Minnie Mason are listed Liverpool Marriages Mar 1892.

I don't know if their parents were living in 1911 so I have searched for any Ida and Nora/Norah and even just JONES (of which there are many!!!) I also searched Cheshire Births on the Cheshire site with just JONES and mother MASON and found 7 other possible children born between 1901 and 1911 and searched for them as well. I didn't find Ida or Nora in any of the homes. The mother was Frances Jane MASON and the last I see of her is 1901 in Hove, Sussex, age 28, b Hawarden, Chester. No luck finding a marriage on FreeBMD. I know Ida did not die in infancy as she and her sister Nora came to Canada and crossed into the US. Ida married George H. PRITCHARD in Seattle, Washington and died there at age 99. My niece married her grandson so I am going to have to pick the PRITCHARD brains for more info. Thank you again for your time Eric. Much appreciated.
