Francis MASON, and his first wife, Mary Dickman, came to Virginia aboard the John and Francis in 1613. Francis was a survivor of the 1622 massacre, but his wife may not have been.
By the time muster (census) was taken, Jan. 1624/5, Mary Mason had died, for Francis Mason, aged 40 [sic], and a wife Alice Mason, aged 26, were listed with a son, Francis Mason, born in Virginia, and five"servants."(23)
Francis' 2nd wife, Alice GANEY, came in the Margett and John in 1622 shortly after the uprising. A man listed as a servant of Francis, Henry Ganey, came in the Dutie in 1619. Perhaps Henry was a brother of Alice and preceeded her in emigrating. Francis and Alice [GANEY] MASON settled in the area now covered by Hampton City, Virginia, first called Elizabeth City, but which in 1636 became New Norfolk County. Their initial plantation of 1250 acres was at a place with the unromantic name of "Hogpen Point." By 1643 they had patented another 200 acres on the southside of the James River in Lower Norfolk County at Lynnhaven, where he was a member of the first court held for Lower Norfolk in May of 1637, and by 1648 was the "shire reeve" (sheriff) of the county. He was also a church warden and a vestryman of Elizabeth River Parish.

Francis' 2nd wife, Alice GANEY, came in the Margett and John in 1622 shortly after the uprising. A man listed as a servant of Francis, Henry Ganey, came in the Dutie in 1619. Perhaps Henry was a brother of Alice and preceeded her in emigrating. Francis and Alice [GANEY] MASON settled in the area now covered by Hampton City, Virginia, first called Elizabeth City, but which in 1636 became New Norfolk County. Their initial plantation of 1250 acres was at a place with the unromantic name of "Hogpen Point."

He was also a church warden and a vestryman of Elizabeth River Parish.
John Mason (fl. 1603), a brother of Francis, matriculated from Merton College, Oxford, on 15 Oct. 1591, proceeded B.A. of Corpus Christi College on 23 July 1599, and M.A. on 9 July 1603, and became fellow of Corpus. His exercise for the degree of B.D. excited suspicion of his orthodoxy, but he recanted, and his submission was made in convocation on 12 June (Wood, Hist. and Antiq., Gutch, vol. ii. pt. ii. p. 305). He received the degree on 25 June. He was possibly the John Mason who was vicar of Yazor in Herefordshire in 1620
