Mr J. Mason, 39, was born in Liverpool. When he signed on to the Titanic on 6 April 1912, he gave his address as 3 Wycombe Cottages, French Street, Southampton and his previous ship as the Oceanic. His wages were £6 10s per month.
Mason died in the sinking. His body, if recovered, was never identified.

Information has come to us at the Lancashire Titanic Museum that this person - James Mason (like the film actor) had moved his family to Blackburn Lancashire at the time of the sinking. The address given to WSL officials when he signed on as a Leading Fireman (3 Wycombe Cottages, French Street, Southampton) was in fact temporary lodgings and not his home address - further research is ongoing to locate the actual address in Blackburn.Nigel Hampson, LTM Curator.
