Thank you Marged for the Deseret Morning News site. Interesting and exciting if it all comes to pass. I have a query from a contact in Wales re her Fletcher connection. Has anyone any info on Robert Emmanuel Fletcher and his brothers Thomas (died in Bebington in 1936) and Geoffrey who moved into a house in Ainsworth Avenue Saughall Massie Morton in 1928/29? Robert served in the 2nd battalion Cheshire regiment in ww2. My sister who lives in Eastham passed the query onto me after seeing a plea for help in one of the local newspapers. I couldn't resist having a go as our family name is Fletcher too. Are there any Fletchers out there connected to these 3 brothers? One never gives up hope of demolishing one of my brick walls too. WILLIAM JAMES FLETCHER my Great Grandfather -born circa 1853 possibly somewhere on Merseyside. Said to have married Alice Hannah AUSTIN. They had a son William James FLETCHER born Tranmere in 1875. Alice Hannah and her son lived with her step sister Elizabeth Hunt and Elizabeth's Husband John Massey in a Fish shop in St. Paul's Rd. before she married William BANNER of Runcorn in 1896. I can find the family in the census collections right through to 1901 but not a mention of my Great Grandad William James FLETCHER. Said to be a Commercial Traveller. (Perhaps he was sowing his wild oats!)Apologies to any commercial travellers reading this! If anyone connects with any of the surnames I have mentioned I would be overwhelmed to hear from you!!!! Many thanks to everyone -particularly Ron- who helped me with a query from a person in Canada. The info you all so kindly gave helped her connect with her Merseyside forbears. Margaret in Australia.
