This really hard to read...You have no Capital for the 1st letter in each name & no punctuation, so it all rolls into one

It does make sense I think, but I agree, lack of punctuation is a bit challenging!!

Jeff, the name mason is a bit tricky as it is so common. You will need the 1911 marriage cert for George and Annie to go back further I think.

I think a bulk purchase of certificates is in order.
It's the best way to confirm parents, birthdate, birthplaces, occupations etc.

You need to apply quoting the reference numbers and years given in the suggestions above.
