Karen: The term "Masson Lodge" could be a misspelling of "Masonic Lodge." Although most Masonic Lodges do not have room & board facilities, it could be that it was used to receive mail during these times. You could contact the Grand Lodge of Scotland (Edinburgh) to see if they would give you the address of a local Lodge that might be able to provide some information on your relative. I should mention that, In some countries, Lodge membership lists are a private matter, although they could provide some genuine genealogical data. Good luck in your research, Don Davidson Los Alamos, New Mexico USA
