    Notes:

    George Mason and his wife, the former Leila L. Riggin, met in their hometown of Crisfield, MD, when both worked in a shop weaving strawberry baskets. He was 20 and she was 16 ½, when they were married. After their marriage Mr. Mason went into the mercantile business in Crisfield.

    In 1926, the Masons moved to Norfolk where his brother James was operating a restaurant, "The I. L. Snowden and Mason Seafood Restaurant." The Mason brothers, including William P., bought out Snowden and began a 47-year career as Norfolk restaurateurs, as Mason Bros. Seafood Restaurants.

    Mason closed up "Norfolk's Oldest Seafood Restaurant" on December 15, 1953, but the Mason name lived on. His son, L. A. Mason, was the proprietor of Mason's Seafood Restaurant at 4019 Granby Street until the late 1970s.
