6Bible, Mason Family. "Family Record of William H. Mason's Parents Amos Benjamin Mason was born March 28, 1822 died Sept 21, 1891 aged 69 years 2 months 28 days." The information for his Birth in bible seems to have come from the his Death notice - (see actual wording). So although the bible gives March 28, 1822, if you use a date calculator, the birthday would be 24 June, 1822 from the dates given in that particular Deach notice "Middletown Daily Press". The other Obituary, "Argus" gave birth date as 25 June, 1822. Since I think "Middletown" came up with the days months and years of his life from first knowing his birthdate and that such dates are hard to calculate by yourself because of leap years etc., I believe 25 June 1822 to be the best guess.
7Records of Joan Mason Say. Birthdate from Argus newspaper (Middletown, New York) Obituary is "Mr. Mason was born in Bethel, Sullivan County, June 25, 1822".

I wrote him and it turned out that he is an American who is an opera singer (tenor) in Weimar. He got me the addresses of two Aschenbachs who live in the hamlet of Schweina as well as the address of the church where Valentin was baptised, as it turned out!."
