All but two cou,pcil 'members were ousted by York County Judge H.W. Allen because of election polling irregularities in 1976. Goderich historian W.E. Elliott tells us that Allan Morrison Masson is a 'grandson of the late Judge James Masson, County Judge of Huron from 1896 to 1902. His father was Thomas M. Masson of Oakville and his mother was May Allan, daughter of A. McD. Allan of Goderich. Mr. Masson; 64, is the former mayor and reeve of Oakville where he still lives.
